  1. Hi can you show how you attached the magnets on the face mask?

    I dont have a photo on me right now, but i stuck it on using a 3d pen, just went crazy until its stuck real good. In hindsight, e6000 might have been easier

  2. So I was looking at working with the same helmet file, and agree about the eye slot size, but are they really supposed to be angled down more do you think?

    Yes, personally i don't think its a bad file, overall it works nicely, i poped some magnets in and the mask snaps of and on easily , and i will just fill the gaps with milliput or any 2 part epoxy of your choice and re shape them, i just wished i joined this group before i started and would probably saved time on this detail

  3. The eyes/visor area are all wrong. There is no indentation across the eyes like that. The eye slits also are shaped wrong, they are supposed to be sloped at a downward angle, they do not cut into the bottom of the mask. Also missing the indents on the forehead.

     

    This is a good clear close up of the mask details and how the eyes are supposed to look.

    I printed this from a file i bought, which i believe is sculpted based on Disney lands character/actor.

  4. I would find a pic from the series, and make sure yours looks like the image seen.

     

    Also contact your Garrison GML/GMO if you have questions, as they will be the person approving your costume.

     

    Some things are still not finished with your helmet, and I cannot comment on a WIP being acceptable or not.

     

    I would suggest in your WIP thread that you post pics of what you made, side by side with pics of what the CRL has and Pics from the Series, and you should be able to answer that for yourself.

    Right, thats sound advice, thanks i would get on to that.

  5. I love this costume.

     

    The detail lines in the helmet look a bit rough in places or maybe its the paint job didn't cover everything? I cant tell?

     

    The rest looks nice

    That would be my fault, i dint put too much work in the lines. But that could be addressed later.

     

    Would this helmet pass crl? You think?
