Once the modeling was completed, the details began.

I have updated the ANH Stunt Visual Checklists, and the first post has been updated with the latest versions.

I love it, thanks for sharing.

You may want to address a few things on your helmet before the DO's review. Not enough lines Cheek traps, not enough lines and too short Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. Vocoder ridges/steps on side Correct Aerators/Hovi-MIX tips are present. Screens used shall be of a wide type mesh, with the rim of the mic and the inside white or painted white. Ideally, the tube stripes are positioned approximately a pencil width from the side of the cheek. Fall of tube stripe tops ideally lean toward the front.

It is entirely up to your garrison if they will allow you to have the helmet off while trooping. There have been a few over the years at celebrations and other conventions

Will be interesting to see this. Lots of people have gone a more pricy route so having some one document a more affordable alternative would be great.

New molds are up and running and the parts are coming out good so far: Rubber FOTK Gaskets Curing Also worth mentioning, I do fiberglass FOTK armor (no helmet) if anybody needs one of those sets: Kit Parts Laid Out I have yet to actually finish one in white since it was really just a side project on my way to building Phasma, but here's a taped together test fitting: Freddy Test Fit Side And you can see more photos in this album: https://flic.kr/s/aHskdaqdDD

Some more research find Baradium-core code key thermal detonator No O detail replaced with a belt button cover Baradium-core code key thermal detonators were special thermal detonators in use by the Galactic Republic's clone army and later used by the Galactic Empire's special ops troopers, such as stormtroopers and the dark troopers. The model had adjustable time settings, ranging from six to eighteen seconds and a small range of five meters within which all matter could be vaporized depending on the setting, or matter in a particular direction. They had activated only with the right code tapped into it; therefore, Rebels couldn't use captured explosives against them. Also, the buttons were unlabelled, which ensured that even if a Rebel discovered the code, they couldn't figure out which buttons to press in order to activate the detonator. Owing to this, stormtroopers needed to employ pattern memorization. When using the detonator, section 32.B.ST57 in the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps Field Manual mandated that the stormtrooper remove their thermal detonator from equipment clip on their lower back, then inspect the detonator for any signs of damage as well as confirm the integrity of the baradium core. They were also given strict instructions to not use it if they were in possession of a potentially unstable detonator. The stormtrooper should then estimate the target range, input the time delay and then input the activation code. Then, while standing half-facing the target, the stormtrooper was to make a lobbed, overhead throw and in the direction of the target, before promptly taking cover from the detonator blast. The stormtrooper then immediately followed up with concentrated blaster fire against the target position. According to the Imperial Handbook: A Commander's Guide, maintaining the weapons included a regular inspection for imperfections in the outer casing as well as full replacement of any damaged units, and that it could be modified to include magnetic and adhesive outer sleeves. In addition, the Rebel general Carlist Rieekan mentioned in his commentary that sometimes captured stormtroopers would trigger the detonator to avoid detainment and interrogation, although he also speculated that they may do so as a means for them to score one final kill.
