Got mine ordered!!! Maybe a dumb question to ask, but how will the dome be attached to the facemask?

I just put a bit of foam on top of the crown and a bit of Velcro on the widows peak. This is down to you as the p
Original helmet had no fixing.

I have tge last paid helmets packed and ready to ship. I'll be shipping tomorrow.
Cheers to all involved. And happy new year.
I just got my helmet yesterday. I'm beyond excited for this piece. It's very well done. All the fine details are captured. In fact, I'm studying every tiny detail on this thing. One that has me giddy is seeing some type of mottling/crackling in the paint that appears to be identical to the one found on the supposed screen-used Vader helmet in the Arnaud Grunberg Archives. I hope Mark doesn't mind me posting these detailed shots...

No problem here. Post away any pics you want. I'm not into all that jazz and secrecy BS.
I'm just glad I was able to give some guys a chance of owning something normally only reserved for the select few.
There are other marks and dings etc found on the original helmet too. The overall shape of our casts are particularly good in my opinion although I'm sure someone will find fault with them. Lol.
I'm surprised this thread has been as quiet as it has too be honest. Normally Vader threads are pretty heated. Not that I'm encouraging a direct debate but always look forwards to others opinions and advice and criticisms.
Hopefully it's just past a few by and they'll pop in for a chat soon.

Will there be completed / finished versions made available at some point? I've been looking for ANH version for a while, I wouldn't be comfortable with painting and attaching the parts to complete it myself. I have been watching the efx limited as an option but they sell for out of my price range...

Got mine yesterday and it is a treasure. Unbelievable the detail that was captured.
In my opinion there's nothing to fault, this is an incredibly "authentic" cast, what's to critique.
Great work and congratulations to Mark and Rowan for getting this happening. And also congratulations to the proud owners, you have a piece of cinema history

Isn't it usually seen as bad form to argue and debate in a sales thread? But since you've started the RotJ info gathering thread in the main section, maybe that will offer some more in-depth analysis and debate!?

Good point. Lol. I thought I was posting on my other thread.
