Out of this world write up! So much information and details. This is so cool to see especially in the Vader community where it is generally alot of "I know this but cant show you or tell you why" attitude. Stripping the original paint took some serious guts to do, but wow was it ever worth it to find what was hidden beneath. Again fantastic work guys. This is a real gem and the best part is that it is in the community and is being shared with no veil what so ever. |

Can't believe I missed this thread! Tom, that's one awesome helmet! Without a doubt the best ESB I've ever seen. Many thanks for sharing the pics and background info. JRX, you did a tremendous job bringing it back to its former glory. |

Hi Tom, Very nice post. Great pictures and backstory. Great work by JRX and an all round beautiful helmet. Another scoop that shows why the Prop Den is the premiere Vader forum. Many thanks for sharing. Superb Cheers Chris |

No comments from Gino! Do I sense a touch of the green eyed monster It must be killing him seeing two great new vaders with this kind of lineage. |

I'm really happy this place is thriving and people feel comfortable sharing their stuff here. I am glad you are happy with my view of the forum It is true though at the moment no other Vader forum has the level of new and exciting offerings. Helmets get briefly discussed on the other forums with the odd picture. So far in the last year we have had the TM, TD, DJ and VP discussed is pretty good depth with great pics. With the possibly of the SL coming up for discussion no other Vader forum has had such quality put forward. We might have the odd bit of bickering but for the most it is also one of the most civil forums. Long may it last. Cheers Chris |

On behalf of the entire staff, thanks for the kind words Chris. As for the bickering; I have no idea what you're talking about.... Okay, back now to our regular programming! |

in restoring it.. I too want to chime in regarding the restoration work. In the antique world, a restorer tries to bring out the intent of the original artist rather than impose his own artistry or override what's already there. This requires careful and meticulous study. The flow of lines and the way the light plays off of it in the final shots of the mask show how understated JRX's involvement was. Such praise could not be more well-deserved! Doug, I totally agree with you here. |
