SUMMARY

REBEL

“VISOR SIGNIFICANCE...”

John Mollo asked Andrew to produce three more helmets for the Rebel troops. They were to have various visor types which signified their position in the fighting force against the Empire. Appearing in large numbers for wide screen action shots and in the final medal Ceremony.
GREY

“FOR THE REBELS ONLY...”

These helmets were made from light grey ABS material to identify them as Rebel troops and not part of the white Stormtrooper brigade.
SCOOP

“A NATURAL DEFENSE...”

The sweeping long back scoop formed an extended protection over the back of the head. The helmet back was made using a free formed parabolic shape that Andrew manipulated on the vacuum forming machine, meaning every helmet varied slightly.
VISOR
DOWN

“SHIELD ENGAGED...”

The visor on this helmet is in the down defensive position for ultimate protection. The visor was made from translucent grey Acrylic and was fixed down below the forehead cap.
