Stormtrooper pepakura - TERRA RETURNS! WITH PICS!
- Thread starter terra1
- Start date
Just a question about weight? How much does it weigh and is it noticeably heavier than you expected? I read on a different thread that someone else's build was coming up to 800 grams which is about 1.75 lbs for you Americans out there.
Thinking of starting a Boba Fett soon and wondered at the weight of yours as it would probably be similar. Thanks

Wow! Amazing work! All from the paper 3D template, too! That's a fascinating way to build one up. I've never seen anything like that done before.

Terra1, did you wet sand to lose the roughness?

Re: Stormtrooper pepakura
Hello! Long ago I see your post to find references regarding helmets creating Pepakura download several of your models but I can not resize them, you help me? Greetings!Your bucket is coming along very nice. The key to a good pep build is to start with a good base and you have done well with space cowboys's model. Its refreshing to see more excellent star wars pep builds. I have plans to start a new stormtrooper helmet that's more accurate than my first. So, I have been working on a helmet that is a cross between dung0beetles version 2 helmet and space cowboys model. Hope no one minds my modifications to the model.

Re: Stormtrooper pepakura
Hi, you need to download the free Pepakura Designer (different from the Pepakura Viewer) and open the *.PDO file with that program.
Click on the top menu:
2D Menu >> Change Scale >> Scale Factor
then you can adjust the % of the scale, or the measurement of the height/width/depth of the model (in mm)
Please note that when resize the model you may need to rearrange the pieces to fit correctly on the print-out pages (use the Select & Move" tool).
You can't "save" the revised file in Pepakura Designer unless you have the paid registered version, but you can still print it out.
Good luck!

Hi, first of all, congrats for the amazing and stunning job! It looks amazing!
Well I would like to ask you a few questions if you don't mind, since I'm starting to work on it too ^^
So, I already download the Model for Pepakura Viewer and already printed it from SpaceCowboy (btw thank you so much for uploading this, it looks great!) and I printed it in paper... I read in a thread which I don't remember its name, that said that using paper instead of cardboard was okay, that worked fine as well...
And if it's not asking to much I would like to ask you, if you could make kind of a list with the materials you used for the helmet... That's what I'm most worried about... If you could tell I would appreciate it very much

Totally blown away by this...
I'd like to start a Stormtrooper helmet build but I'm a complete and utter noob when it comes to the material craft involved. Are their any tutorials available that you know of which lay the construction side of things out step-by-step? Or is it simply down to pure trial and error in terms of getting the project completed properly?
Cheers.

Wow!! I can't get over how detailed this is. Well done, Well Done. I have just taken this build on myself and can't wait to see the finished product. It will be my first, and hopefully will turn out close to what yours has. GREAT JOB ONCE AGAIN!!!
Re: Stormtrooper pepakura - MOLD FINISHED, CASTING 2NIGHT + PHOTO UPDATE
Awesome finished product, you may have given me a new way to break into something I can do and have room for, LOVE the watermark on the eye.. should have done a tiny version on either the inside or the bottom lip. that way you`d be able to see it long after it`s finished and its in an area that doesn`t get removed.. Awesome work.

Hello. Awesome build. Im new around here, just started to do my own bucket after seeing this and its been harder than i imagined. Been strugling a bit but i keep thinking if i get trough the paper phase i can fix the warping in the bondo stage. For now im trying to cut all the molds as best as possible and glue them with super glue. Anyone knows the diference between mountain fold and valley fold hehe?
PS: English is not my native language, thank you

Okay, I am a little late for this one, but wow! I have read every thread on every page, and I feel (slightly) optimistic for doing mine. Heaps of advice and now my browser is rammed with links to all the other threads, and I will read each and every one of them.
Great to see this can be done here in the UK. I find we are limited with suppliers of materials, but I am able to walk into shops here and purchase the materials straight away.
Great thread, great comments, excellent result.
