That is from a 3D model you can find on the internet.

Is this ebay listing for a 1:1 symmetric TK helmet by anyone here?

No that looks nothing like the TS. Looks like either a MR or EFX recast

Ah OK good! That model isn't too bad, but the lines are too straight, the corners too sharp.

OK so a bit of bad news, this project has had a setback, the person who was going to produce the copies unfortunately will not be able to finish due to time constraints beyond their control which was one of the reasons as to why this project has taken as long as it has. So i am now having to look into finding someone else who is trustworthy to produce this helmet the way I initially intended. fiberglass construction, hoping to find someone soon, Ill keep you posted as soon as i can. stay tuned.

OK i know its Been a long time coming for this project, it had some setbacks. And then the worse happened. The initial print was damaged during shipping. So we made some minor sculpt and engineering improvements and will have this reprinted. I know its been a long time waiting, but this is still happening. Should def have lids ready to roll out this year. Stay tuned.
