Thanks again Brunnen! LOL!! That\'s where mask collecting has come in handy, I swear, the waiting for stuff to come in, has made me the most patient man on earth LOL! And stuff does happen when working on things like this, very rare the time you don\'t have to correct at least a couple things. It\'s all basically trial and error, you learn by your mistakes, and hope they aren\'t so bad what you\'re working on is a write off! And I\'m a real perfectionist too, extreamly anal, so I\'ll spend way more time then needed on the tinyest detail until it\'s exactly how I want. And then sometimes I\'m still not happy. The good part about making weathered props, they\'re supposed to look rough! :wink:
I\'ve seen that Vader helmet before, looks like a recast DP delux, not terrible at all. Maybe it\'s the pictures, but the dome looks a tad off to me, the widows peek should be flat and straigh, and it looks like it dips up a tiny bit. The armor, I\'m thinking is cast from GT, nice stuff, used by most of the 501st, but not 100% accurate, if you\'re a real nut. I think, why that is so cheap, it\'s from Spain, the shipping price on all that fiberglass from Spain, makes me shudder LOL!
