Nice to see this moving along so well, Mike. To have an Anakin actually fit inside the neck with the mask able to be placed on top properly will, unlike the others you mentioned, make for a great display. The ears may have to squish a little, but that'd be screen accurate too!

Are you talking about how uneven it is or how much higher it seems to be on many of the other helmets used for a reveal?
Its still being tweaked but I feel good about the height and overall shape, I am still working on the transition between the filler under the disc to where it meets the actual mask...getting that accurately uneven around the front.
Of course by now you've probably noticed I'm adding all of the masking lines to the cast. I also have picture reference of the bottom of the face part so that will be accurate as well.

Yeah, you nailed it. A lot of the other reveals just can't get this part right. It should be uneven just as you have it due to the Vader's mask being asymetrical. On the original you can see a crack where the dish is coming off the edge piece. I had the same thing happen on mine but I fixed it. Your height and shape look dead on.
"where it meets the actual mask", is what I was referring to but you got it covered. I was not able to see that area in your first pics but you have it down. Looks like the best Vader Reveal yet.
Man this is not only going to be awesome it will sure make building a reveal a lot easier. :thumbsup :love :thumbsup
Here goes more money. :cry

That gorgeous sculpting work on the mask, but i have to ask. Are you going to put the eyebrows on him like the original or keep it like the updated special edition version?
