I was wondering how hot toys was able to create a full figure with only that 1 screen shot of the front of the mask. they said that had access to photos but it seems as they are rushing these figures out way to fast just to make money and not really caring about detail unless they have some access to private photos from Disney.

Hot toys are sent reference photos that're watermarked out the wazzoo to work off of

Wouldn't be surprised if they had some files that were digitally-scanned from the real deal. That's how a lot of the new toys are being made, which is just awesome; really gives an accurate and detailed product!

The peak seems a bit high. Perhaps it's not intended to be functional and rotate over the helmet.

 

[virateck]

Maybe not , maybe yes

But she's a bit high yes , I didn't work on this part yet

 

[Pouqba]

Well done dude

That's so damn awesome. How do you start making helmets initially? I'm a newbie. Would like your guidance because it looks wearable and def. with a smooth SMOOTH finishing

Thanks

Your question is the one who comme the most often , I have only one answer :



The pic on the left is the first I took on this project , the right is the last I took actually

Great work are you making it so the visor flips down.if need you help on details check skygunbros custom creatures he's in the process of building one check em out.

 

[virateck]

No system , the visor will be a separate piece but I'm not gonna make a "flip down" system when we aren't sure she move yet

And Skygunbro did a big job on his helmet too !! But I don't need to copy others work , only the real helmet

Thanks
