Outstanding build - very ingenious and for the budget and materials used, that's a damn fine effort chap .

You guys are too cool! Thank you for the kind comments! And Honus, I bet your Fett helmet is WAY better than you're letting on! My philosophy is, if you put enough filler on, you can hide ANYTHING! :lol

Well I've decided to PEP the armour, thanks to Fierfek's outstanding work. I will try to keep the whole budget thing going and look into papier Mache again rather than Fibreglass. I think it's important to make the whole concept open to as many people as possible, regarding the budget.
Thanks again everyone for your awesome comments and support!
Darren

If I hadn't seen the progress photos, I would almost not believe it. Lol. I'm astonished at how well it turned out. Great work!

You should see the inside, Aden! It's all Pizza boxes and cereal promotions! :lol
I'll post a pic tomorrow to show you. It's pretty funny, and I will have to sort it out at some stage!

On the contrary, Mondas, I'm blown away that you, or anyone else on here could do such a really nice thing..... But that's this site all over isn't it? Genuine people with genuine values and goals. Thank you Mondas. It's my goal one day to produce a lid and suit that is 501st acceptable.

Hi to Vitruvian and Jonowl. Thanks to Fierfeks endless work, I have started the armour but I am seeing if I can doi it on a budget as well, but still do something reasonably accurate. Another thread maybe? :wacko

Re: Tutorial: How to build a stormtrooper helmet for less than 10 GBP FINISHED

That is a COOL Helmet! But I was kinda trying to keep it in the Star Wars theme. Absolutely no disrespect to your choice at all, Digger. It just wouldn't fit into my personal collection. I'll build it, but then you gotta buy it! JUST KIDDING!!! :lol
