Clone Trooper Costume Overview, (FREE FOAM TEMPLATE)

[@russellrivero6356]

HELP FOR SCALING! Take your height in inches. Ex: I am 5ft 8in -> 68 inches tall Divide your height by his height in inches(72in). Ex: 68/72. The percentage you get should be the the scale you print it by. Ex: I got 94.44%, so I will print the templates at a scale of 95%. NOTE: This is a rough estimate you can do to get you started. You may still have to modify some parts. *Thank you Ryzer for your amazing, simple templates! Already made the helmet, time to get started on the armor....

[@ryzer_red]

Thanks for the help!

[@blazeheartyt]

I'm 5'6, so would mine be 85%?

[@russellrivero6356]

BlazeHeart2699 I got around 92%. 5x12-> 60+ 6 more inches. 66/72=91.67%. So around a 92% scale

[@josiahmunshaw6692]

How do you change the size of it on a computer.

[@ryzer_red]

@@josiahmunshaw6692 You have to go to the print settings when you go to print the PDF. Look for "scale" under "more settings" and change the percentage to what you get from the pinned comment up top.

Hey! I live in the US so I used normal 8.5 x 11 "Letter" sized paper. If you live outside the US then your paper might be a little different which might change the size of the template. No matter where you live, if you want the EXACT same template as the one I used then you should select "print original size" on your printer. Don't choose "fit to page" unless you want a smaller template. Hope this helps!

Ryzer yeah, would definitely take up a lot of plastidip. Also, what did you use to fill the seams? Kwikseal?

I was using liquid resin so if you're younger, I don't recommend making it the same way as me as it's kinda dangerous if you don't know how to do it.

[@evanpags3008]

I apologize for asking so many questions, but which thickness of foam is used for which pieces?

[@ryzer_red]

It's all good. For 90% of the suit I used that CAP Barbell Roll Up Foam mat that I linked in the description. It's about 7mm thick. Here's the parts that were different sizes: *The hand plates are 5mm craft foam. *The shoe ankle guards are the same 5mm foam and the strip of foam on the shoe is 2mm thick. *The gray little circles and rectangles on the back armor are 5mm foam. *The buttons on the pauldron are 2mm *The compad is 5mm *The helmet fin is 2mm in the middle and 5mm on the edges. And the air filter circles on the front are 5mm with a small 2mm circle in the middle. I think that's about it, let me know if there's a specific piece you need.

How do you make your seams so clean?

I used this big foam mat instead of little sheets of foam so I had fewer pieces to cut out and less pieces to glue together. Also, I used contact cement to glue the pieces together and it helps to hide seams much better than hot glue. :) You can also tape the templates together in areas where there shouldn't be a seam line before you cut it out on foam. www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Roll-Antimicrobial-Foam/dp/B00M1S9Q04

What were the measurements for the helmet

[@ryzer_red]

I kept the measurements for mine the same as it is when you open the file in pepakura. I would recommend scaling it up a little as it is a pretty tight fit. You'll also want to trim some of the bottom ring of the helmet so you can fit your head into it anyway. There is a measurement tool in pepakura too if you want a better idea of how wide you need to make it.

[@ryzer_red]

@@toddkuznitz3629 I glued them edge to edge with contact cement and secured it with hot glue. Although, you could add a little extra foam to the "under" pec piece and that way you could just glue to them one on top of the other. I'd recommend that actually.
