i found it strange when you asked that he side steped it by claiming its an old mold that a friend of his sculpted. still, dans helmet is much sharper pulls and nicer looking, the V.2

..strange is one way to put it

Okay. Personally I don't buy that this was sculpted, unless I see some good in progress sculpt pictures. It has all the recast traits we are used to seeing - accurate face and soft features.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck ...................

It's a goose.

Sorry. Felt like being a joke.

This was the problem with the IH. I dont recall any evidence provided (even privately) that it derived from an original helmet thus we could only conclude it had come from the same sources we already knew......

Jez,

As far as I know the IH had a copy of a stormtrooper faceplate he sourced from a colleague he worked on a film with. The helmet section is a reworked Don Post Deluxe.
