thank you!! I used a 3mm sheet of foam to smooth it out. I used a heat gun to stretch and shape it.
Did you hot glue it to the dome?

Here's what I came up with. I did most silver with just hints of the brass color. I used a graphite color paint for the darker under tones. I'm pretty happy with it!
that would be fine with me! Thank you!Nice build! And I saved those templates and have been tracing them onto a white document for better printing. If your ok with it I can post those white templates here for everybody
yep! That's the one! I only used the dome it was pretty modified! But not a bad start at all!Hello, nice work, is this the file you used? http://propzone.be/files.html
Alright, I'll post the templates once there all finished so there will be no waiting for the last template. Which will be quite soonthat would be fine with me! Thank you!
Whoa, that looks great! Do you "seal" your craft foam before you paint it? I used foam for my female Tusken but I then covered the foam pieces in Model Magic (yes, really; it's about 1/4 the weight of fibreglass!), I haven't had much luck painting foam directly.View attachment 467714

thanks!! I just use plastidip to seal it. In this case the rubber coating came in the perfect color for me!Whoa, that looks great! Do you "seal" your craft foam before you paint it?

sorry to hear that! Let me know if theres anything I can do to help!I started my build tonight. I'm fairly new to pepping this is only my second thing I've pepped (the other was the Star Lord helmet) and after two hours of work I can honestly say the helmet dome is kicking my butt. All I have so far is a piece about the size of a yarmulke and it's super rough looking. I'm really not happy with it at all. I haven't decided yet if I'm gonna keep trudging on with it, start over, or just trash the damn thing and wait till some one does a cast run.
