You basically just made a real Storm Trooper helmet dude! Fuckin epic!!!
This is what the real stormtrooper helmet would be like! Great job!!!!
ER9 Stopmotions give or take a few parts, the helmets in the lore have a full hud and targeting system
BaronVonPanzer yea true
I will honestly pay you to modify a helmet for me!
I'm currently designing a much much simplified version of the external amps system as a kit that will install in minutes. Totally removable with no extensive modifications needed to the helmet. Just plug and play, so to speak: only earpads with built-in speakers, and amps enclosed in a plastic housing vacuum formed to fit the helmet flare tube without being in the way. It will be glorious!
9 years later.... any update? this project is still amazing
keen for an update also!
Same. Waiting.
Rename the video: How to make an actual Stormtrooper Helmet.
REALLY SERIOUSLY 8 dislikes!!! You did an awesome job! Configuring the comfort and sound amplification I want to do something similar for my Boba Fett helmet.
+Warlord2029 No kidding! :)
19 dislikes!!!!!!!!!
Received most of the components I need to design a plug 'n play kit. Will keep u posted.
I feel like this is how an actual stormtrooper helmet would look. I would love to see you customize a kylo ren or darth Vader helmet
good god you went all-out on that! Now I just need to figure out how to do this.....
Now all we need is air filter and an lcd screen in the eye socket
For 2012 the editing is legendary
FINALLY! Someone's got it right! Nice Mod Bro
Nice build, I totally enjoy electronics projects such as this and I found this to be a pretty clean build. I think adding the stereo sound inside is a killer idea!
I went to an furniture upholsterer and he gave loads of offcuts for free of various thicknesses. You need a disc in the top of the helmet and the thinness of this depends on how high the helmet needs to sit.
Great job! Now, it's even much more valueable than before!
You put way too much effort into this and I love it.
omg I'd legit pay you to mod a Mandalorian costume with this! So awesome!
I now know what I'm doing this summer as a project to improve my eFX helmet
This is amazing! I'm getting armor within the next 2 months, and im from Arizona, so things like the fan would be very useful. All these mic and sound modifications are genius and just really cool!
I watched this video when I was like 7. Time flies by
Just completed a DYI tutorial of this mod on my website (see link under the video). Video tutorial summarizing it all to follow.
Wow! Great job on the helmet and the video presentation! I put a video up of a traveling exhibit that had a movie worn costume. One of these days I'll get a costume : I remember they sold the helmet replicas in the 70's/early 80's in Sci-Fi magazines. I should break those ads out.
really loved this video, and as soon as i get my helmet plan on doing similiar modifications
Nice, so, have you done it?
Excellent job. Getting my Helmet today. Can't wait! I'm going to do your mods to my helmet. Hope I can chime in on a little direction.
You are one badass dude. I'll happily subscribe. I just bought myself a New Hope version of the helmet and am looking to add a microphone since I'm planning on cosplaying as a comedy variant of a Stormtrooper. (Tourist trooper, janitor trooper, chef trooper, etc.), so in this case, all I needed was the helmet and not the armor, since I'm too tubby to fit into a set anyways. This will help a lot!
For a very detailed photo of the wiring for the external amplification system, check out the link in the description
"These are the explanations we're looking for."
Well done my friend... Well done.
You can then you can cover the foam with a stretchy type cloth if you want like Lycra or even very thick lady's tights and then use Velcro to fix so you can remove should you want to ever wash them. hope that helps out.
That is extremely awsome! Wish I could get my hands on a helmet like this!
Dude, that's amazing. So much work and so much comfort. Nicely done!
Great Video! I am getting my own eFX Stormtrooper bucket tomorrow, and want to do basically what you did. Can you tell me which specific parts you used, like the microphones for your ears and such? Also I'd like to know how you wired it all behind the padding. Just over all a little more detail, so i may make an awesome helmet mod like you did. Again, wonderful video!
killer...you have obviously nailed this build. i so wish i had this kit
One of the best storm trooper vids I've seen. I love how you've added depth to make it so real. Did you do a build vid as well?
Love the video and love the work you put in your helmet.
I take your work as inspiration for my mando bucket, but already figured out, that those have quite less space to put electronics in (the trooper helmet bulges at the bottom are sure a nice place to put electronics in).
What interests me, is how much electronics you put in your SW:ToR Mando helmet.
Keep up the awesome work, vod!
This will actually be good for my cosplay, not as a Stormtrooper, but as a NCR Ranger
You are an actual genius. You should really design attachments that you can sell!
Thanks for sharing your awesome modifications to your helmet. Let me know if you can do a plug and play for a biker scout helmet!
That's a pretty good storm trooper helmet how cool is that. That's my dream.
Absolutely astonishing
Trying to figure out how to do a similar thing to a Mandalorian(Deathwatch/Journeyman protector) helmet. Great content wonderful project. Very helpful!
Then I have a thin band that runs across the top of the eyes. Then to parts of foam that tend to be thinker than the rest at the sides that go just above the ears and finally one band at the back of the head where your head is the biggest. If you need you can also place another thinker part of foam just under this. Its a matter of trial and error and I temporarily fix them in and when I have all the position and thicknesses right.
Very nice. already have electronics in my Mandalorian Buy'ce but some of your ideas are really cool and i think i will try them in my next Buyce Project. But what is missing in yours - what my friends and i have in our costumes is a walkie-talkie in the helmet. so we can comunicate while we troop from one part of the con to another. just saying^^ Greetings from Germany
That sounds really awesome at 5:04. I wonder if the same thing can also be possibly done with a Darth Vader helmet too. except it wouldn't sound exactly just like the fan's voice, it would sound exactly just like James Earl Jones's Darth Vader voice and the breathing sound so that no one will be able to hear the fan's own voice and breathing sound. if that kind of programing can possible that is. Mynock's Den should also do the same to the Anovos First Order Stormtrooper helmet too.
Really helpful, going to be using some of these features in my Neo Crusader kit.
feels so old. I haven't heard the store Radio shack for a long time
ah thats so good, well done, id love this helmet with these mods.
Made that last reply from the wrong profile. I've done simple but clean padding before as well, but that wasn't the goal here. Had it been possible, I would have put a HUD in there as well, if for no other reason than just to see if it would work. I'm currently in the process of molding a boba fett helmet and once it's done, I'm going to do the same thing to it, and hopefully more. Why? Just because! I'll reply to the other posts shortly.
Would that all fit in the new Hasboro Black series.
You should sell this mod.
I need to do something for my Boba fett helmet. help?
This is very cool looking, I am really going to rig my Tie helmet like this.
Finally a realistic storm trooper helmet.
Great video. I'm planning on doing something similar to my custom mando helmet and I got multiple good tips from this!
I might have to use some of these things in my Mando helmet.
This is awesome! Great job! The video and the helmet looks and sounds great. Well done.
Great job, pal!
Great work, man.
Take my money! I would gladly pay for this, even just the parts!
Excellent work.
Great! Thanks! I hope I will have time ti put all this things in my T45d helmet!
Incredible video! Thank you so much for the in-depth detail!
Wow! That is awesome! Thanks for sharing your advice and tips!
Amazing work!
Do you think you could do something similar to this with a Darth Vader helmet? I can't seem to find anyone that can replicate a fully functional Darth Vader helmet (including the voice changing effects and such), which is actually quite disappointing. But after seeing this video of yours, I'm almost certain that you could do it. I mean, this is by far the most crafty thing I've seen someone do. Best regards!
Yes I'm planning to be Darth Vader for Halloween and I need to do this fast!
+S P I C Y M E A T B A L L if you have any tips pls share
Okay. This isn't my cup of tea, but very cool! Well done. Love it.
you sir are badass
I would love a kit. Though more information would be nice, like cost and shipping expenses. Are you able to produce one soon, say, by next week?
Do you think that someday those 2 troopers were sitting in their barrack bunks, looking through a magazine copy of "Hot Clones of Coroscaunt" and then 1 says to the other "you know, those might have been the droids we were after."
Love your way of making videos!!
6:05 Yes I did enjoy this video! MTFBWY
;D
Sweet! Great job.
Bro is a genius
A nerds dream!
That's one bad ass helmet!!!!
dude u deserve way more than 1500 subs :)
MynocksDen Props fun fact "real" stormtrooper helmets also do have mics on the sides.
thats where the round things are.
Your upgrade is awesome , as expected :D
But maybe you should consider getting some more accurate decals , because the basic efX ones aren't quite top notch XD
+General Khalee (TA-65015) The whole helmet is not quite top notch.
SkulShurtugalTCG For legit trooping yeah , but for display or casual cosplay , just replacing the decals makes the helmet look decent enough :P
+General Khalee (TA-65015) For that kind of thing, absolutely. What you do for yourself, and your own hobbies, is entirely up to you - and if you want to display this helmet, or use it casually, it's definitely way better than most other things you can pick up commercially.
Excellent work! Thanks for sharing.
add a targetting system and you have a fully functional helmet
Amazing ! Great job, well done, it is very impressive !
11 years ago is crazy
*Standing Ovation* well done, sir, well done.
Great work!
badass mods.. might use this idea on the BS helmet
AM_ Productions same I'm gonna try most of it on a black series helmet since it's mostly screen accurate and cheap
Yep
It's a lot of work ;)
awesome vid dude i wish i could have one like that !
This is amazing!! Nice work!
This is so cool, i just need it
Any computer or electronics shop will have those fans. Mine I think I got on ebay. Just search for airsoft or paintball mask fan.
WOW amazing work love it 👍👍👍👍
Great job! Is it possible for ease, to put in the description the list of stuff to buy?
Very good job.
i might do this for a Mandolorian helmet!
Awesome bro!
you sir.......... you're a some kind of genius :D do you sell these stuff, or making just for fun?
Nicely done. Thank you much😊
Lord Vader has requested we buy new uniforms. He has sensed another movie is being filmed. Trooper T691 signing out.
This is awesome!!
Great job!
Absolutely love it!
