+Nigredo I'm surprised you didn't use a mouse sander or a orbital sander....they would've reduced the dremel and hand sanding work a tonne. I use it all the time, it sand through body filler like crazy.
+Fagdalf The Gay Yes! my dad gave me an orbital for xmas that year and now I use it very often with the dremel aswell, but more for flat or big surfaces like swords
I've got the template, however what did you cover the outside and inside of the helmet with prior to sanding? I would very much appreciate it :) p.s. great work, it looks awesome!
Do you have the pepakura/program file that you used to make the paper mock up? The one i built was terribly made and turned out looking slopy. Your cardstock model looks amazing.
Hola Nigredo como estas ? Te quedo brutal el casco y quisiera por favor saber como lo hiciste y que materiales usaste si no es mucha molestia. Saludos.
mauricio amezcua Muchas gracias! La verdad fue hace tiempo y no recuerdo donde, pero si buscas el archivo pepakura seguro llegaras a alguna web o foro donde puedes encontrar uno ;)

Nigredo Thanks man :D !! , have another question, what do you use to fill the little holes and do the small detail in 0:56 ? really thanks I am going to build one myself ASAP
..cuando mi esposa me deja tambien juego play... jajaja. esa plantilla para el casco? me encantaria intentar hacer ese casco. felicitaciones por esas obras maestras.
+john smith You can use spackle, i.e. drywall putty. But you need to seal it properly. I use Bondo because it creates a nicer finish but requires significantly more work on the sanding end.
First you find a pepakura model, you print it out on cardstock, connect it using glue, then you want to put one layer of polyester resin on the inside, when that dres you want to put one on the outside, then give one more to the inside and start putting fiberglass, check out tutorials on youtube how to use polyester resin and fiberglass, when that dries give one or two more coats t the outside, when that dries apply car body filler, then san it down, apply body filler again and sand and so on and so on, you want to get suer smooth surface, when that is done you just need to paint it, spray paint, acrylic aints, arbrush... for black line thats above the eyes and the ears use thin foam, and for the mouth thing do the same, paint everything, gove t couple coats of crystal clear spray paint and you are done, but before you start painting the helmet you need to spray primer, you are welcome
Do you mind sending me a built paper helmet, not painted or bondoed. My printer broke and I can't do it. Really want to make this for my little brother because it looks cool.
Joseph Allen thanks for your words! muchas gracias ;) Some friends also said that I should but there is a lot of other stormtroopers here, so i have in mind to do a cross with an orc
Θα ήθελα,άμα βέβαια μπορείς να το κάνεις να μου φτιάξεις ένα κράνος και άμα η τιμή είναι κανονική θα σου το αγοράσω και να μου το στείλεις στην Ελλάδα.Μπορείς να το κάνεις και πρώτα από όλα πόσο θα το πουλήσεις;;;
I would, of course, if you can do, to make me a helmet and if value is normal'll buy it and send it to me in Greece. Can you do and above all how you sell it;;;
Not a new one. I´m gonna make an etsy site or something like that. Meanwhile, if you want we can find a direct mode or I can ask to do it through a small company where I commision sometimes
A lot of work but I admire the effort. Great helmet. I’m actually making my own DIY stormtrooper figure and posting my progress on instagram at TrooperToo
..cuando mi esposa me deja tambien juego play... jajaja. esa plantilla para el casco? me encantaria intentar hacer ese casco. felicitaciones por esas obras maestras.

+tinyb0y thanks a lot!
Hi, what material did you use for the helmet? Cardboard?
the dutch flightsimmer In the first stage, yes :)
After you did the resin and fiber glass on the inside did you put bondo over it?
Man that's fuckin' cool.
BerserkBat thanks a lot!
Good job👍🏻
what material is that?
What kind of materials do you use to make him strong?
The most important is fiberglass
What did you put on the outside after you added the fibreglass?
Great !! I want to do one as well to get in the 501 legion, I would like to know what is the grey thing that u use in 0:28 with the fiberglass?
Dunno how to translate right but is a polyester putty. Used for fix scratchs in cars or boats ;)
Nigredo Thanks man :D !! , have another question, what do you use to fill the little holes and do the small detail in 0:56 ? really thanks I am going to build one myself ASAP
Marcos Felipe Schimidt I think this is some kind of "Bondo".Silly name but great product.
What did you use to cover the helmet in the first part?
Can you make the new stormtrooper helmet from episode 7?
Trayton Fagan I want to. If a customer ask me to do it willl be great

Que buen video :D una consulta, en el minuto 1:33 lo que estás lijando es Masilla mágica que le aplicaste sobre la fibra de vidrio o no?
Hola! Gracias. En ese momento estoy lijando la fibra de vidrio del interior para que quede suave. No tiene masilla mágica por dentro. Saludos.
