  1. Is the base coat under the Sahara Beige supposed to be a very dark brown or a black? I need to get the paints ordered for the helmet and this is the only thing I'm not sure of.
  2. The main reason I am using bondo is to make hiding interfaces for gluing parts together and making any slight printing errors such as a tiny x or y shift easier to transition. Still sanding like crazy, just don't want to accidentally make a divot trying to correct those areas.
  3. 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.
