KOTOR-style Mandalore helmet?

Thanks - just sent payment for the extra colors so that mine will be
the same as GroundKeeperWillies.

A layer of fiberglass cloth, and a couple more layers of resin, and it will be ready to demold and trim. The multiple colors of resin means no painting required.

:cool
 
Man that is cool. I don't usually 'do' expanded universe stuff, but that goes beyond anything I've seen.

Very well done :thumbsup
 
I was not satisfied with the quality of the first pull.

:angry

I'm almost done with laying up a second one. I'll post pictures when this one comes out of the mold.

*crosses fingers*
 
OMG that looks SICK! What's the ETA on the finished piece? Looks like you're in the final stages. Man, good things come to those who wait, eh? :thumbsup

I hope to be shipping yours early next week, assuming the balance is paid by then. Just have a little more trimming to do so I can install the visor.
