My son's Stormtrooper suit

[shawnpane]

Here is my son's armor at around 9 years old. I just couldn't make myself chop it down anymore.So,When he was younger it was all bunched up.
But I figured as he grew it would look better and better.(iwas right) He is now 11 and if were lucky,he'll get A few more years out of it.

Here os another one at age 9.Tha's me as Vader.

Here is at age 11.See,looks better and better.

T.M. your son suit is amazing.I love the helmet.For the life of me,I looked and looked,rubies,don post,ect...ect... looking for A helmet to fit him better.Finally we just gave up.As he grew it started to look like it's supose to.Still A little bit of A bobble head.Gotta love foam trim!!!!!
You should really consider doing some runs of these. I don't have to tell you that,At any event,the kids get all the attention.
Hey look Darth Vader,
OMG!!!! Look at the little stormtrooper.People have almost knocked me over trying to get pics with the kid trooper.
It really does look great.
Fantastic job! TM are you 501st???

Paul,

That is absolutely fantastic. I love your normal size TK but this is a bolt out the blue for supercool fun props.

The helmet is great.

Your son is a lucky lad

"Arent you a little short for a stormtrooper?"

I came in here expecting to see that quote, and I was not disappointed. :lol

Excellent job on the suit! I wish my dad had been that much into my costumes back in the day!

WOW, I only just saw this thread.

That is honestly AMAZING, your work really is astounding. Also, what a cool dad to do that for your son :thumbsup

Anyone that used to not believe you sculpted your TK molds from scratch now see how wrong they were...

Exactly!!!

Sour grapes can sometimes be pretty damaging....

Cheers,

[Jumpin Jax]

Good, now people can stop using that darn "short" line

 

[rmschneider104]

Holy cow. That rocks. Lucky kid. My 7 and 5 year old boys would drool.

What detail! The helmet is especially amazing. It was very interesting to see the comparison shot with your full size helmet. You obviously put in many hours on the sculpt.

It's funny, you also seemed to have hit a chord with all the dad's.
