HI all,
I was thinking about a vader costume but after doing searches, wow, it's a big bill, so I will more choose a Kylo ren costume.
I took a look at several threads here, and seems the cheapest option would to choose a BS helmet and use a disney helmet for the bottom part.
But I have questions to the guys who know:
-are these the helmets we are looking for?
-why to use the disney bottom part instead of the original BS complete helmet, seems it's larger, but is there another reason?
-is it possible to just add material on the BS bottom part to buy only one helmet and get a similar result?
-how is the BS, compared to a anovos or even the real stuff regarding scale (not texture or so, no comparation)?
here is what I seem to have understood.
-There is a boring complex line, switch etc to fill on the BS, and the texture has to be softened a bit.
-the chrome part is wrong, regarding openings and profile, not flat, but rounded, but many prefer to keep the original chrome look so they only enlarge the hols on bottom for more accuracy.
-the mouth part is too small, so the braves of us take it from the disney helmet and stick it to the BS helmet.
I would try to keep the sound if good enough, and try to get a moving mouth part if possible, did anybody do it?
I think I will also remove the chrome color and replace for aluminum powder coating then sanded and polished, probably do same on the damaged areas before painting, for a more realistic look.
