Hi all,
I've been wanting to make a stormtrooper armor set and joint the 501st for quite a long time now, and I've decided to bite the bullet and just get started, with what seems to be a doozie of a set. My goal is going to be just to get approval while doing as many of the "easy" L2 additions as possible. My helmet I plan on having be full L2 from the start.
I've decided that I am going to be making most, if not all of the armor myself using 3d printing and purchasing most of the soft parts.
Helmet Plans
STL File - Nico's Shoretrooper Helmet Files
Filament - PCTG (I'll let everyone know how that goes and update if I change filament)
Visor - Branfur Studios Shoretrooper Visor
Paints
Filler Primer - Rustolium Filler Primer 2 in 1 (May try out Seymors PBE as Ive heard its really good and has a much shorter dry sand wait time)
Base Primer - TBD
Tan - Montana Gold - Sahara Beige
Black - TBD
Spicy Red - TBD
Does anyone have any tips on filler putty to use. I usually use Bondo for my props but was wondering if there were any good alternatives.
