LOL! There's just something about the white... 
I had my original hopes on a TK, but if we're low on resources and we can't get the proper moulds, I'd be willing to change to clone. I'm just not a big fan of the whole clone trooper thing, but we'll see where it goes.
The Mando helmet is looking great so far! I could never build things from scratch like that, or maybe I could, but I don't have the patience. In either case, I admire your skills!

Rob,
Episode 2 is much closer to their mando origins (T-Visor) and episode 3 is much more similar to the TK design. I am actually with Steph on this one though, I think TK has far more emotion to me, and as such would be a higher priority. I have issues with the clone thing too. That's a convo best saved for the next meeting. We can try our hand at sculpting any of those three I suppose. I am equally will to try any of them.

P.S. why doesn't anyone log/chat on AIM?

The body armor for the Ep2 clone and Ep3 clone are exactly the same for the regular troopers. The only difference in is the helmets, unless you are talking about doing a specific type pf Ep3 clone, such as the Galactic Marine, Airborne, Commanders, etc.

Yes the armor is, as you said, the same. I am referring to the Helmets.
Hence 'T-Visor'

I know this was brought up before, but is there a chance that we could borrow already existing molds to pull the armor from? I know you spoke about doing this before but I'm not sure if you had any luck.

I didn't really get a positive response from anyone about all that. I think too many people are too interested in making a living selling stuff rather than just having fun with this hobby. It's kind of a shame, I hope to be more charitable when in a position to make these myself. I have little doubt we could do this quite well and in a pretty reasonable time period. I am getting materials to start building a body cast to work off of, and a case or two (40 or 50lbs each) of chavant NSP clay. I have also been building up a reference catalog of my own to help get the details correct.action figures, especially the larger ones would be helpful, also if anyone has a helmet, even a bad one, they would be excellent references. (no I do not wish to recast or otherwise reproduce someone else's work, but I want to have scaled references) I am doing it all on my own, but it will be for the benefit for whoever is involved in the group, and I would not turn away anyone who wants to help.
