Blank Helmet Drawings
« on: Jul 11, 2015, 08:50 AM »
I was using the mando maker to plan out my colour schemes, but I decided I wanted to see what the plan would look like on my assassin bucket, so I drew this up, using the image on the NME Props website as a base, so the dimensions are as accurate as possible.

below is said image (with link to a gallery underneath. also included is a bit of advice regarding using gradients to give the illusion of depth). hope you guys get some use out of it, I know I had fun playing round with different designs and patterns.

(i didn't bother making a back trace of this, as it's practically identical to that of the standard mando. let me know if you want one)

This is excellent!  I re-painted my assassin helmet about 8 or 9 times before I found what looked the best.  The tiny little border around the visor is a killer....

UPDATE: I decided to do a bunch more, as well as a trace of the mando stalker for my riddur. yes, it really is that wonky. I tossed up between making the traces true to the source material, or taking some artistic license and making them symmetrical, but honestly I was just too lazy to be bothered with it. anyway, without further ado, here they are (by the way, if anyone has any requests, lemme know and I'll make some)

When I did my final paint scheme for my helmet I took a bunch of pictures of it, and outlined it on photoshop...it didn't look nearly as pretty as this mostly because I didn't care about it being pretty, and I wanted to have each section separate. But this is definitely a great idea.

I was working on figuring out the paint scheme for my NME stalker helmet and I made a 90% true to scale template of it on MSpaint as I couldn't find one online. Figured I would share it for those who were working on similar things!



Hope this helps someone!

Can't see the photo because of photobucket, but as your NME stalker is a helmet manufactured and sold by someone, you might wan to check with NME about how they feel about you posting a template before you do.   If it's just a paint template, disregard, if it's for construction, I'd check with them.  Since I can't see the photo, I don't know. 

-EDIT-- Yup just a paint template, totally fine -- but as Havelock suggests, imgur is your friend.

I fixed the link. Not sure why it wouldn't show from my photobucket. But yeah its just a paint template, not an actual DIY construction one.

Because photobucket is now charging something like $400 a year to show your pictures on third-party sites.  After using up a ridiculously small amount of bandwidth, your picture won't be viewable.  I'd recommend you switch to a site like imgur.

This is very good work & a great resource!!  So that we don't lose it a mountain of threads, I'm moving this to the Armor Concepts board as a sticky.

I don't think I can thank you enough for this as the Stalker is the helmet I am planning to use. Now I can get in depth with how I want it to look!
