Custom 1/4 Scale Darth Vader Helmet

I recently got the new Jakks Pacific 20" Vader Big Fig. It's a nice figure and it looks really good. Except the helmet looks a bit cartoonish, which is a bit of a let down since the Boba Fett I have looks great and Jakks' Batman V Superman figure were excellent likenesses (3d scans I heard).

Long story short, I made a 3d model of Vader's helmet, bought a 3d printer, and made my own 1/4 Vader Helmet.


If you're interesting in the long story, I have a few blog posts about it here: https://fandfcollectibles.wordpress.com/


Here are a few pics of the render, print, and how it stands now. It's not 100% finished, but almost.

I'm finally back with some updates. Pretty much redid the entire dome before. The paint on the mask isn't perfect, but I wanted to see how it looks all together now that I'm done toying with the sculpt itself.
