I still think he looks like he has too big of a gut.

Maybe he turned 40 recently i chopped him down a lot before i think what you see in the belly department is what you get now i have gone too far to change it.

I still think he looks like he has too big of a gut.

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

he actually looks slightly slimmer than the real one?

Man I hope I can afford this when it's done. Bells need some tweaking. Do you want pictures of my bicep armor. It is painted up as a sand trooper but can give you some idea of shape

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

These are from my left bicep.

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

If and when it gets cast i will try and keep the price as low as i can i would very much like to recoup the costs of materials that i have used as he has cost a small fortune so far the primer must add up on its own.
I will spend some time on the bells and arms i can see there not right thanks for the pics .
Back to work today so construction slows now

well hmmpf they posted sideways....

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

If they are any other individual pics you want just let me know. Mine is a TD so ignore the grime but you can still get the general shape. I understand about recouping cost and plus your time. I thinks it great what you are making here. It will blow the Sideshow away in my opinion plus it is fanmade

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

would it be a lot of trouble for you to wear the arms in the position i am sculpting?

Hey Dredd,
I'm a little late to the party, but if it can help, check my AP armor pictures on my pic site here:
Stormtrooper Photo Gallery by Alain at pbase.com

I have tons of pics of all the parts separate from every angle .. I could upload them all if you want? A little bit like this :

misc Photo Gallery by Alain at pbase.com

And btw, don't take body proportions in account, I'm 6'3" 185 lbs .. but the AP kit is awesome and I think fits me pretty well!

Re: 1:3 stormtrooper sculpt wip trooper armour advice needed

I see what you need and it isn't much.

Sand down the rear back plate and part of the butt plate, to give it a more natural and sleek appearance. Also, thicken up the neck a bit and angle it forwards. That will also require the helmet to be moved slightly forward and also pulled up a bit in the rear and down in front, like you see in the movie - the famous tilt-head-down-cool-look.
