I think Fett 4 Real had done one in ROTJ. I think others have posted the same question in the Cargo Hold.

This is really cool

Asok doesnt...

Well, he does if you don't mind it looks like a five year old painted it. Sorry to the five years olds that I have offended.

does this come with the ear cap? Or is there an aluminum right ear cap that would fit this helmet?

 

[Mullreel]

The ears are cast into this helmet. The upper right ear where the RF goes is the only thing seperate. All of the parts are included with the kit though.

 

[asok]

Ya, what he said. Thanks!!

 

[KarmaTiger]

cool. Is anyone making the armor in cold cast, or helmets only?

I got mine in the mail Tuesday. It is fantastic. I usually build clones, so this is my first Fett. I love the cold cast. I hadn't ever seen or heard about this type casting process. I am looking forward to painting it.

Question: Is there an extra bit that needs to be cut off of the upper ear cap? I don't see it on anyone's builds. Do I cut it off? I am painting it up ROTJ style. Thanks

There will be part of the bottom of the ear cap is will need to be removed. I would look at the Ref Gallery and compare it to the screen helmets and you will see what needs to be removed.

I included pics above to see if I am removing the right bit, but you have to click them to view? Loading up pics is different here. I will have to learn how it works. Thanks.

Your attachments don't work at all. I think you waited too much before you clicked the 'Save' button... The Manage Attachment says: 'Uploads not utilized within one hour will be deleted'. This might be your problem.

I have some good news. I have been training a Padawan. What does that mean? Well, my friend who has not worked in over a month will be able to help me keep with demand. She is used to filling teeth with resin so, helmets are not a stretch for her.

AWESOME!!!

Asok I just got my cold cast helmet today! Thanks for the super fast shipping and the helmet looks wonderful. I was surprised to have it here today sinced it shipped on Monday! I can hardly wait to start polishing, putting it all together and painting it. Again I love the cold cast idea. I think the cold cast design will give a more realistic metallic look versus painting. Again i must say you did a great job on this cast and a great looking helmet! Thanks again!

So... Are you still selling these? Currently trying to build my own, but I wouldn't mind having one of these. Looks a little more reliable than the one I'm working on. Cursed cardboard.
