Seeing as this section seems to have been dormant since 2008 ...
I thought Id add this picture , like the posts before me, its of a section of my helmet collection ..or to be specific , a series of helmets Ive made up to be a sort of "evolution" of the stormtrooper . The odd thing is that they are all fiberglass .. so , evolution in fiberglass ...

All off Ebay , all requiring vast ammounts of filler and reconstruction, and all painted by myself.

Well... been a while since I updated this one. Just put in the RS Props armor picture (from their website and hope they are okay with me posting it here.) Will see if I can find a good picture of their helmet and also a picture of the new eFX Legend Hero. Unsure whether I should cut away the recasts and only keep the "legit" makers up... but I guess that will be more trouble than I want to deal with, as it's a complete beehive about who's legit or not.

Good lord, this forum is missing TONS of photos. I just took some photos of my RS Prop Masters ANH ABS lid this afternoon, figured this thread could use a few reference images.

The top-down view really illustrates how wonky these things were in the movie.

For some absurd reason Imageshack recently nuked all free accounts with no notice except for a tiny blip on their website - no e-mail notifications or anything. Pretty annoyingly stupid. I've been trying to get them to send me the archive download link so I can get my pictures back, but so far no reply. And I'll have to go through the pictures one by one and matching them to the upload links, since imageshack scrambled the name in the link - another stupid feature.

So basically, nearly ALL my uploaded pictures are down. First Photobucket started their revamp and screwed up accounts, so I had to delete mine... and now imageshack doing this stunt. I'm gonna keep writing them every day to give me my download link, which they say is possible on their website notification... so they better make it happen soon.

Yeah, stupid internet. I'll try and re-upload and re-organize my pictures for these helmet and armor posts sometime this year... I've just not felt much drive these days.

Imageshack, Photobucket, Webshots all "took care" of the photos we uploaded onto them at some time or another by completely deleting them or modifying the links and thus making them unusable. The funny thing is I still have some very old photos up and running on some obscure hosting sites, but very few unaltered photos on the big well known ones.
