If you are doing a reveal version, you should do the ESB version. Those are rarely made and I think they look cooler with both tusk tubes on the bottom piece.
New Vader 3d sculpt

Looks so good!

Will this be released to the public?
I'd definitely be willing to do some test printing, I have a Sonic Mighty 4k. Would love to help tweak! 3d design is such an iterative process, I end up printing like 20 of anything before I consider it "done" hehe...
Really interested in a Reveal model! I can model everything except the BASE! Keep it up gents!

Hey everyone! It's been quite some time since any updates on this project. i wanted to put out, project is still being made on the model. there have just been a lot of delays in my personal life that have made progress crawl to a halt. however, finally, i'm getting some free time again. and am now making progress. i've made some tweaks to the model, hopefully improved, (and modeled a new environment for these promo shots )
after this long wait, i know it's not much, but please let me know what you all think!

Looks really cool. A suggestion regarding the lip on the dome. It should be angled inwards a bit more at the front facing edge and when the shape starts to curve in towards the center ridge, it should slowly tuck in more behind the front edge, so that it angles up inside the dome at the widows peak area. I can do an illustration about what I mean. Give me a few minutes.

Here are some pictures. Hope they make sense. It's about the only change I would suggest.

It’s still gonna be some time out. Have some more things to work out on the 3d side, then I need to prototype 3d prints and such, and you know how the rest of doing a run goes. Gotta find ways to semi-mass produce, and market. But this is me speaking as someone who’s never been part of a run. I still have to talk with my friend on this project with me. The one I joined in the first place!I know I say this a lot, but,....wait for it,...when is the run?
Man, it’s crazy, initially it began from a battlefront Vader helmet model, that was tweaked heavily, but now, the whole thing has been revamped, there’s not any part of the old model left, at this point it’s a new sculpt. Of course I still had the BF2 model as great reference, but now it’s a model that’s completely new. And I’m primarily using defense of the original screen used helmets at this point.I wouldn’t even know where to start with building this kind of model digitally
My hat is off to you
But I put my hat back on real quick because it’s getting cooler here and I don’t want to catch a cold!
And yes, it’s getting chilly everyone, bundle up.
