Captain Fordo

I have a Captain Fordo in the works, from season 2-3 of the clone wars animated series, I cant figure out how to the helmet, any help is appreciated.

I would get a regular phase 1 helmet and look up a picture of him and paint away.

That would probably be the best, or decals/stickers, Kam might have Fordo's decals, I can't remember. Oh yeah he's closed right now, since he's moving.

Fordo turns into a phase 2 though http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/7/74/Fordoblaster.JPG
I can't figure out how to make a phase 2 helmet look like that

Kam has it, I need to physically MAKE the helmet though, or alter a phase 2 helmet.

Well now that I see it he kind of looks like commander Neyo (his moth part does) I think you should go on brickshelf and look up Fordo or Neyo for helmet ideas.

Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate it.

EDIT:

Ahhh that Fordo! Yeah Kam's got the decals, he DOES wear the same type of helmet that Neo and some of his Troopers wear. I don't know WHERE to get it though, you could try making it, or you could ask/see if Arealight has it, other costomizers may have it as well, I'm not sure...

Brickshelf proved unsuccessful, only a few pics of old fordo.

I made a clone assassin helmet that is Neyo's exactly but with blue instead of dark red, its just that the helmet is different than phase 2's.

Did you try to look up Neyo?

Edit: A modded shock trooper helmet could work.

Second Edit: Well you could make the Neyo helmet again then paint and mod it as much is needed.

It's not actually different as it is a TYPE of phase II helmet, it's just a different style, it has an upgraded philtration system I believe.

Kaminoan does have two ARC trooper decals. But what might work is painting around a phase 1 helmet and using a shock trooper torso. Not sure.

What I'm having trouble with, is getting the helmet to be pointy at the chin area, it goes on like a triangle, I cant seem to make it.

First off, what tools are you using?

Pliers and sand paper, I don't know if there's better tools...

A rotary tool would probably be useful too, I imagine!

What's a rotary tool?

I've created a Neyo/clone assassin Helmet, i'm not quite satisfied with the visor portion yet so there might me an update in the near future but i am creating Neyo and 1 Trooper to accompany him with these helmets right now

I'm hoping to post him on here in the next few days.

The eye visor thing has a bump in the middle, its not a straight line, looks good though, think you could try and make a Fordo helmet
