    Thank you for making this template! It got me really started in mando armor. Over the course of the last year i've used this to make four helmets. Customized it a bit for each one, so for reference for anyone else i'll list what i did
    Twi-lek mando - cut out a large portion of the back of the dome, then cut down the middle of the back wall. used an extra peice of cardboard and velcrow to close it once i get it over the lekku.
    Nite-owl style visor - simply changed the shape of the extra peice around the visor. that one's visor was construction paper with slits cut into it, so i didn't need to change the shape of the mismatched visor opening underneath. doing it again i would simply do the same, but cut out the extra curves after glueing the top peice on as a guide.
    Yarndalorian - yarndo is plastic canvas and yarn. I used these templates for the base of it, simply tracing and cutting out the template on the plastic grid as accurately as possible without cutting open any of the squares. Whip stiched the seams together rather than glueing, and filled the panels in the same way you would with any other plastic canvass project.
    I've made a few other modifications, such as adding horns to loki-lorian, making boxier ear caps for yarndo, a rangefinder for the nite-owl, and a rangefinder for the twi-lek. designed my own earcaps for each rangefinder.
    Definitly suggest to any other custom mando builders who want to work with cardboard but not to be din djarin to still use this as a base! if you'd like a fully nite owl style helmet, you can always use the dome, visor with the modifications i listed above, and side walls parts of the template, then all you have to do is figure out the cheek indendations. tricky, but not impossible, i belive in you.
    Final notes, if you want to paint rather than use duct tape, be very careful with your hot gluing. it is possible to get clean seams, though on some curves there will be a gap that you'll want to fill in, either very carefully with hot glue, or with something like bondo. Don't forget to seal your work (i use mod podge), be safe with knives, and don't touch hot glue.
    This is the way.

    i used this video with the provided templates to build the helmet. Took my around 4 hours but was easy all in all. I'd recommend to build each side alone first and then adjust the width so your head fits in well. The helmet is kinda big so I could cut off 2 cm of each half in the middle and then glue it together. Thank you for this video and the provided materials.

  • @haydenb-r76
    @haydenb-r76 3 года назад +7

    Just a tip,
    If you don't want to buy the face shield you can lay out some box tape (Clear tape) to the shape you need and use a thick sharpie to color the black and you can still see out of it.

      @haydenb-r76 3 года назад

      @Popple yeah
      It actually works really well.
      I use this for all my helmets.
      Bubbles get in the tape sometime but you can squeeze/pop them and since there is no light coming through the inside of the helmet, no one from the outside can see your face through the lens.
      I lay a big square of tape down and put another layer on top so both of the sticky sides are facing eachother, sharpie one side, and cut to size.

HOpefully I'll be able to dig it out of storage and make a video showing it off for Halloween!
