Beginning Stages & Materials Used
We ended up using canvas material and pleating the ribbed part on top, also using bias tape to line that. the helmet was EVA foam. For the earpiece, we used some headphone mesh.
Painting
Daniel used an airbrush to do the little details and weathering on the helmet.
Final Product
Beginning Stages & Build
I've had this pattern in my stash for a while now and knew it would be used for a Star Wars poncho, either the Leia Endor or Luke on Tatooine. Simplicity 7173 is the pattern I used, I used a poly-cotton material, so it was a little thin, but it'll be perfect for summer. It was actually only one pattern piece cut on the fold, then I added the hood to it. So material usage was 2 1/2 yards.
Endor Camaflouge
We used Dark Green, Regular Green, Lime green, and Brown spray paint to create the camouflage effect.
