Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

Thanks guys!
Today I want to show you the knee plate. It's one of my favorite parts so far:

Here you can see the whole process, and as usual, check the video description to download the templates for free! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smuOPBhjEik


See you later!

Hey guys!
Shoulder bells in progress! As this part is very rounded, I decided to make a guide out of cardboard and styrofoam and use it to create the templates. I hope to have a first version by the end of the week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ND8o-uj5w4

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

i had a difficult time trying to make the curve for my sabine shoulders...i cut a round shape the size of the shoulder bell and made a slice down the top half and used bondo to fill the gap, but i think the clonetrooper is even more difficult to do. you have done a amazing job sergio im still useing your templates and love the job you have done.

I like the subtitles it can help you learn a language without even trying just by watching the videos. There's some nice content I subscribed even though I don't understand the language fully. The armor is turning out nice.

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

First version of the shoulder bells. It has only 5 planes. Not bad, isn't it?
I'll upload a new video tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

The modified technique to achieve rounded parts works like a charm! (subtitles available) Have a nice Sunday

Re: Homemade Clone Trooper Armor

Second shoulder bell and official video in progress. The top half is pretty much done (actually around 80% done)! I'll make a video wearing everything soon!

It still needs putty/sanding, but here's how it's looking right now

Yesterday I bought some ribbed fabric! I can't believe it's finally time to start planning the undersuit. It's VERY exciting!.
