Good afternoon,

Hello all my name is Dustin and wanting to put a shoretrooper together...new recruit for Squad7 Florida garrison with a question.

Can the helmet be a single unit from a 3D print? Any other advice you have on a pattern for the tunic is also greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance..

We don't have a pattern for it floating around although there are several propmakers who make them. Check our Vendor list for some names

 

The advice I can give is the same for any costume. It just has to look correct from the outside. So how it is put together doesn't matter if the armor covers up the rough bits!

I've tried to make my own shirt in the past and while it's not impossible, I'd recommend going with one of the venders here. The shirt is more complicated than it looks to make sure the ribbing lines up correctly.

 

As for printing the helmet, I would do it in smaller pieces to ensure accuracy. I've printed parts of my helmet and doing it in small parts and assembling later lets it look more polished as a whole. Plus I'm not sure of a printer with a print bed big enough to knock out the whole helmet unless you have something industrial.

 

Looks like you know exactly what you need, Best of luck in the build!!
