Someone at the office asked if I would make them a stormtrooper.
I've made others before, cuties and bear heads, but they were on the simple side and I knew I wanted to build something a little more dazzling. I watched Mr. Boma's stormtrooper helmet design on YouTube while ago, but never tried building it until now.
Mr. Boma always does a fantastic job and shows very clearly how to build things, but one of the things I appreciate about his videos is he oftentimes includes more than the how, and adds the "why" he does things a certain way. You can tell a lot of playing and planning went into making things efficient and accurate.

Nicely done, thanks for the smiles!
