Hoth rebel soldier details

I've used photos from the production of ESB to create 3D models of the Hoth rebel uniform details, 3D model renders seen below:

Rebel hat "Comm piece":















Rebel chest pad:












Rebel glove pad:












Rebel vest greeble:












Hoth belt grenade:










I'm currently doing a test 3D print of the hat comm piece at home, using my Ultimaker 2 printer.

All pieces shown together:

Test 3D print finished, assembled, painted and weathering applied.

Very nice ! :thumbsup Like how the painted part came out.

Are you planning to make the whole costume ?

Old MoM pic. Yours looks dead on. Well done!

Great work!

Thank you! I always add weathering and partial damage to my replicas, for my own collection. I think they look more authentic that way compared to something that looks like it just came out of the factory.

I will probably end up printing more of these parts but I'm not sure if I will be making a full Hoth rebel uniform. I got an x-wing pilot uniform and a tie-fighter pilot uniform, and I'd love to make a few other types of pilot uniforms such as A/B/Y-wing pilot uniforms and Bib Fortuna of all characters.

The main reason for making these 3D models is for the fun of doing these types of projects, and to make the parts available to other people through my Shapeways account.

Thanks! I see the antenna is different in this one, compared to the rectangular style antenna on the comm piece on the prop in the photo I used as reference. Guess they used various parts to put together the same type of props. In the end, viewers wouldn't spot the difference anyway.
