Success at last - ESB Helmet

I found TDH almost 2 years ago when it first occurred to me that I could actually create my own Fett helmet. Fast forward to now: after much starting and stopping (and one trashed build) I finally accomplished what I set out to do and it would not have happened without all the resources made available here through everyone's sharing.

So thank you, all!

Debuted my ESB helmet at Indiana ComicCon yesterday in a Pulp Fiction / Fett mashup that seemed to go over pretty well. Only downside was my rangefinder snapped off in the car and I had to live with it attached shoddily with tape. I'll never leave home without superglue again.

I did this all with cardstock, bondo, and fiberglass. Paintwork was 95% rattlecan and some brushed paint touch-up's.

Looks good man! Well done.
