Odontoblasters ATA Bucket Build

[Odontoblaster]

After years of wishing I finally made the next step to build some armor.

 

I have started with the helmet since the armor has a very long wait list. Here things are after trimming the eyes and frown. Any suggestions here? I still need to trim the brow back a little I think but measure twice and all.

 

 

Now I moved to the cap. This is where I'm getting hung up. Do I need to extend my cut back further to the edge of the traps?

 

 

 

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Chris and welcome to the FISD.

 

Here is a link to the ANH Stunt frown reference. Would suggest to enlarge the openings a bit.

Regarding the cut in your cap: just add the brow and you'll see where it ends in the traps. A deeper cut allows the brow to be a bit longer.

Thanks for the reference pics Tino. I went through and opened things up on the frown a little more. I think it turned out better.

 

 

I didn't have time to mess around with the brow tonight. I guess my question there is should the brow extend to the far edge of the traps?

 

Thanks again

Good job on the frown!

 

Regarding the brow: Depending on what specific type of stormtrooper you build, you can check the "Photo References - Gallery" (link is on top of this page) for screen shots.
 
On my trooper I did it like this: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/28549-fully-finished-anh-stunt-tk-15mm-abs-from-troopermaster-with-some-modifications/

Frown looks better. Making good progress.

Well after far to long a lay off. It is time to get back to work. So I made to plunge to join the face, cap and back. I would like to get a little feedback on placement before I move on to ears and such.

 

 

I haven't really trimmed the opening for the neck yet so that I can adapt everything once the ears are done. As things stand now there is no way I can get my head in, but I figure that will come later.

 

Thanks

After moving and a job change I made it back to my bucket. Exterior work is done (I think). Just need some padding and to trim things internally. Please let me know if I need to make any changes.

Great work, bit hard to make out some of the details as the images are a little pixelated but looks like a nice job from what I can see, well done
