Kylo Ren Helmet Sculpt - (Old School Version 2 beginning pg17)

Master Edi, your V1 was great, and I can't wait to see the V2!
I've been watching the Star Wars Global Toy Unboxing event, and they had a 3ft tall Kylo Ren figure where the hood was removable; found some pics of it online
Looks like the back of the helmet arcs up along the brim slightly, and there are for sure no horizontal grooves on the helmet!

... It's interesting to see the slight brim pull up... I wonder if any other toy has that. The 6" black series was different. It did not have that pull up.
 
... Anyone have any Hot Toys 1/6 scale unhooded pics???... I think they might offer the best look at the full helmet for now.

Good pic of the side detail of the actual helmet!!!
 
Could anyone tell me the length and width of the outermost "mouth plate" on the screen used helmet?

Curious to find out how small the target 2 piece helmet is...

I'd like to see if I could add some styrene to it to make it a little better....

I saw the target 2 piece helmet and I felt the proportions were a bit big. This is just my general feeling though.
 
I'm always up for an upgrade. Maybe cold cast this time. Painting the chrome is s pain. I used Alclad II system for mine. Going to brush in the small black areas

Just wanted to let anyone know that might be interested. Hit very hard times and have to sell my helmet. It is up in the junkyard now. Fully painted by ArtisanFX! Just needs some padding inside for a custom fit and blackout for the eyes! Kit and shipping to paint then back to me, I'm in for probably 700+ on this. So would like to get at least most of it back. But I'm in a real mess and just want to make sure it goes to a good home too!
Hope it's ok I mentioned this here! Hopefully I'll be able to jump back into kylo mode early next year! :/
 
... I'm terribly sorry Husker75, I hope you are able to bounce back soon... Your helmet looks great! I hope someone grabs it from you!
 
.... Nice work too Jango!!! You turned my Helmet into a masterpiece!


Now to Version 2... I had been hoping that some actual helmet reveals would pop up on the Internet after Force Friday, but, alas, no go... (Sigh). So I'll be starting the mold on V2 at the beginning of next week, I know that not all scrapes and details are not in here, but the overall shape I believe is good. Any missing details can be dremeled in by everyone I'm sure. Looking at size it is about an inch to an inch and a half smaller in the height and length from my old sculpt. The dimensions are from the widest points as such: approximately 11" wide x 13" high x 13" long. This is slightly smaller than my V1, but not in the extreme. At this point I'm sure everyone is Kyloed out, but any helpful thoughts would be appreciated

New sculpt is looking great man! I'll probably pick up v2 because I have a feeling by the end of things i'll have 10 Kylo Lids.

I thought I'd take the opportunity to post a few comparison shots to your v1 along side the Rubies 2 pc deluxe helmet. Its funny how so many people complained yours was too large (while you admitted it did run a little bigger than you liked) I think these shots speak for themselves. The detail on yours is obviously above and beyond the Rubies but I was surprised how little difference in SIZE there was. To me it was more angles than anything. Looking forward to the new sculpt!
