Haha! Don't you just love it when you make silly mistakes like that?

A'den & Saz: Thanks for the tutorial! That'll be helpful when it comes time to make a custom helmet!

Out of curiousity A'den did you CAST that OR bounty hunt bucket out of bondoglass?

Not yet...I have built a base to form my plastic on though (now I can make more than one set!!! ) I need to get some accelerant so I can laminate my 2mm plastic plates into 6mm plates...or order more sintra...

I haven't really done much of anything on this or my other mando lately...been helping Dem and the vod'ike with their stuff, but hopefully as this is a nice long weekend, I'll get some done. And on this, as I need metal for the other build.

helmet or armour templates? I made the temps, but the armour ones no longer exist and the helmet ones are incomplete...I do plan on doing a run of these helmets though, once I get a master built.

I cant wait to see it Kal!

And, in answer to many question I've been getting about helmet construction (and in particular, the fibreglassing aspect of it) I'm gonna post this link here:

It's from our buddies over in the 405th, and the same concept applies to fett lids.

:cheers

PS- I am still making a complete bucket tutorial...it's just taking some time...
