Re: Aluminium cast Clone Trooper Helmet
Do you have templates for the interior padding? It's amazing [emoji7]

Hello,
I tried to make something like templates for my padding now, even if these are not really templates though, but just an easy drawing. but maybe it could be a help for someone who would like to do one. the size of the parts depending on the size of the helmet anyway, just as the form does when it comes to detail. so, here are the parts I used:
It is possible to do it completely out of the mesh-fabric, mine had a thickness of 6mm, so its already a padding. but after doing 4 of them, I was thinking a mixed way is the most comfortable and best looking for me. so the gree helmet and my resin one have a mix of mesh fabric and normal fabric filled with some padding material. But I think some of the parts should be mesh fabric, because this is more stabile than the other. I wrote it on these parts. on the other hand, the parts with a padding, the padding material gives stability. especially the neckring is working very well with a padding inside so its holding the whole interior helmet in place inside the helmet.
as you can see besides there are nr 1 and 2, just to explain, if you like to do a padding part, you need 2 fabric parts. the front that you see (2) and the back (1) thats closing the little bag wich is holding the padding. so dont forget the extra material for the high of the padding (2)
here the padding I used:
the middle top of the head and the neckring is missing here, it is just some rest. its also possible to do the neckring in 3 or 6 several parts, I had the very left padding for that. the ear padding could be better square shaped too. all the blue padding is 2cm high, the black 1cm. so the the 2 topstripes in my case are 3cm high, this is just depending how it works for you. its always good to try it, if its fitting or not while working on it.
