- Today I build the helmet for my Jango Fett costume. I love building helmets, they're just the coolest part. This one took quite a bit of patience between paint layers, but it was worth it!
I produce the metal range finders and ear pieces over on my Etsy shop

Helmet kit is from Zero Cool Prop Shop on Etsy

Looks amazing man. Jango was always my favorite characater in all of star wars
Same
The helmet looks so good it brings back memories... I didn’t care about dying in the arena at that age, I just had to hold my father’s helmet one last time.
Hi son
@@bashsabbath dad? I... I... you’re alive? I followed your footsteps to never forget who I was and to avenge you... but when Palpatine killed Windu, I decided to work for him. Then my career ended for a long time when I was almost killed by accident by a half blinded man. I have failed you.
@@Boba_Fett_Bounty_Hunter umm anyways I work for you
@@Boba_Fett_Bounty_Hunter alright boss
LOVED this Episode Brother!! This is Mandalorian 70 on TDH, I did a Jango paint job on a Zero Cool helmet awhile back, now I have one coming from WF and one of Cruzer's last helmet casts, I will be getting more ear parts from you soon :)
"I've been looking forward to this". Fantastic work and attention to detail as usual! The new metal range finder is a great improvement. Super clean masking too. Just loved this build... thanks for sharing man!
"Good, twice the pride, double the fall" xD yeah the patience on the painting was worth it!
Buckethead Props XD. Yes indeed
waw, super impressed with this. ive started my first (and probably last) costume in January, and it just so happened to be Jango too. cant wait to see you finish piece. that goldfinger paste is hell of a find!!
Beautiful. Ordered the aluminum ears from your etsy shop. Thank you!
As always a beautiful build was a pleasure to see your work
Really enjoying the videos! And the helmet turned out fantastic.
Also after masking for the blue it looked like the helmet had a chefs hat :D
Oh man, I have been waiting for your Helmet video since you announced your Jango build! Looks amazing, well done as always :D
Looks incredible!
Nice build
I love it
Nice work
Awesome work man, looks gorgeous
I have been waiting for this for so long!!!! Great job man
Thought I'd point this out. I re-watched the fight between Obi-Wan and Jango on Kamino and after Jango flew off he lines himself up to fire the rocket on his jetpack. If you watch closely, the range finder on his helmet angles back toward the missile meaning that the range finder can tilt a full 180 degrees.
if you wanted an accurate helmet you should have made the rangefinder able to go backwards behind the helmet like it did in the movie
loved it man
Where did you get you metal parts cut and how much did it cost? I've been looking for a good place to get some parts made.
Use a local place called Aqua Cut 🙂
LOVE IT !!!
Kool build I noticed you used two different shades of blue the the darker one is the the krylon ocean blue what shade did you use on the lighter blue
The light one is the Krylon Ocean Blue, the dark one is Rustoleum Royal Blue gloss enamel
Buckethead Props thank you 🙏
Hello looks great what did you use to score the line and keep it even the whole way around for the pinstriping???
I used my calipers, and just lightly used the tip to score the line, following the helmet brim with the other
@@BucketheadStudios ok cool thanks!
is there a metal jango helmet out there that is ready to go?
Only one maker that I know of who consistently did metal helmets, and that was Acacin Armouries, but not sure if they're still taking on work
Where does one find a kit like that? Its going to be priceless with your range finder!
Thank you :D Updated the description with link to where I got mine
@@BucketheadStudios how very kind of you!
Hi, what did you use for the black lines please?
14:01
Yo...nice spin.
How did you not get a chemical reaction, I have both of these paints and keeps getting bubbling when applying the ocean blue atop the royal blue?
I let them dry a good long while, about 2 weeks I think, really let them degass
I noticed the one can of blue paint was called ocean blue, but what was the second one?
The dark blue is Rustoleum gloss enamel Royal Blue, and the lighter is Krylon Ocean Blue. Left loads of time between colours to make sure they took well 🙂
where did you get the kit for this helmet
Hello! Fantastic video, thanks to you I bought some of the gold finger wax as well and I’m using it for my Jango helmet too. So far it looks movie quality, but I wanted to ask if you know of any technique to smooth out the “splotchy-ness” of the wax? I believe I applied the wax evenly over a clean surface and carefully book it, but the wax seems to have a lot of darker spots to it. Do you know any work around for this?
That's great! As for the splotchyness I'm not sure, I did a couple of coats, buffing in between, and leaving a day or 2 between to let the wax dry. I had to be careful about applying it too thick as it can build up in places and look different. Also be careful if you weather with oil paints, they look the best but will take up the finish a little.
@@BucketheadStudios I’ll workshop it a bit, I think I’ll be able to dial it in now. Thanks for the advice!
I miss the old intro music. xd
anyway very nice build.
I never thought anyone paid attention to the titles 😁
I'm looking for one of these for my big head. I'm like a size 7 and 5/8 or larger. 62 cm. How big is your head if you don't mind my asking?
61cm and lots of room in there 🙂
@@BucketheadStudios thank you!
@@BucketheadStudios I took your advice and bought from this seller and I'm very happy with it. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the amazing vid! Do you still have the link for the more accurate rangefinder? Greetings from Germany!
The rangefinder topper is from Bobamaker (site has same name) although you'll have to email and ask for that particular part 🙂
I am so grateful for your videos and help. Thank you so much :D
Make a phase 2 captain rex helmet
Will you be continuing this build??
Yes, but not sure when. In the process of moving rn so everything is in boxes!
I can't find the helmet kit
If you'd like the same seller maybe send a pm? If not there's many helmet makers now, wasted fett, minute fett, bobamaker to name the bigger ones I know
the sanding and painting order is not the better decision
Where did you order the cut out from???
I sell them :) currently out of stock for the ear pieces, but should have some back in stock by the end of the week or early next week www.etsy.com/uk/shop/BucketheadStudio
isnt the helmet a bit heavier on the rangefinder side since some parts are aluminum
Not at all, the aluminium is not heavy, not near enough to unbalance it 🙂
Hey, where did you order this kit from? I've been looking around but can't seem to find an affordable kit for in the UK? Any advice as to where to order from?
Mine came from the states, most vendors seem to be over there. Mine was from Zero Cool Prop Shop on Etsy. There's also minute fett and wasted fett (US) both on Instagram, & Bobamaker who has his own site (who is in Europe)
Excellent video! Who was the vendor for your helmet?
Zero Cool Prop Shop
Quick question : what did you use to buff out the metallic paste?
Great helmet btw:)
Just a soft cloth (although it may be ruined if excess comes off)
@@BucketheadStudios thank you so much!
I cant find the mold anywhere
Its Zero Cool Prop Shop on Etsy, maybe send a pm if it's not listed as an item
Cheers
wrong. the jango picture has the base incorrect,
The ear piece position? It is correct
I started making a Jango fett helmet out of a cold casting I made. But halfway through I decided to make it a Boba Fett 1313 lol
Where’d you get the mold? 👀💯
Etsy seller - Zero Cool Propshop 🙂
All the silver parts should be metal aside from the range finder.
can i buy one of your clone trooper helmets?
I don't make them I'm afraid
Buckethead Props I was only joking😂😂
First to the party
Sell it to me
But then I'll have to cosplay headless Jango!
Ain't zero cool props a known recaster?
@@BucketheadStudios I will be happy to answer any and all questions about my helmets and where they came from! Most helmet wips are over on TDH site feel free to look at how I designed "ALL" my helmets...recaster I am not.
I have "WIPs" on most of my designs over on the TDH site....before running someones name through the Mud do your homework first! thanks
@@zero-coolpropshop1748 sorry let me rephrase that. aint zero cool props helmets banned by the mando mercs? for using parts from a x wing toy and Optimus prime helmet?
@@SofthammerStudios Considering all that is going on in the World at this very moment...I could care less on what they think about me and the parts I use! Thanks for sharing!
