Stormtrooper model

Final Render:

It’s still in work in progress.
Currently working on detailing the whole helmet.

By far, the hardest model that I have encountered so far.

[midnightrebelz]

The most troublesome section is this ear section.

Helmets are always harder than you think. You are making good progress. May your eyesight be 20/20 when you complete! and hit your target!!!

[midnightrebelz]

Thanks. I’ll try to complete it by end of this week.

Super sick. I like that second render

[midnightrebelz]

So far so good, manage to fill up the mouth gear.

[midnightrebelz]

For this mouthpiece, I am gonna try to use a lattice modifier to deform and conform onto the main base mesh. Hopefully it conform to how I wanted it to be.

[midnightrebelz]

Seems like its not working how I intend it to be.
So here’s the workflow.

1)Mouthpiece mesh has Lattice modifier set to Lattice
2)Lattice mesh has Curve deform modifier set to a curve that I have added to conform with that base mesh surface

Kinda gives me the “Queen” iconic album cover not gonna lie.

I realise there is some artifacts going around in this footage.
