Wow turned out great Tony , all that research payed off . Yeah would look even better with the mic and earphones and maybe a bit of weathering inside .

JediXXL on Rebel Legion have posted pictures from the Star Wars Identities Exhibition in Montreal which is on now. He took some really good pictures of Porkins' helmet. |

Great photos, it really has taken some bashing since ANH. So I just need to replace the Vs with those wing type decals and add a slight bit more weathering. I hate the red blue line stickers placed on the top. I'll make this one close to how it was in the movie not how the years have changed it. |

There is some discussion about the Helmet on Rebel Legion's forum also. Apparently, the broken "meatball" decal just above the "bird" was there from the beginning. At least one helmet was changed after filming. The "blast screen" helmet (that Luke wore on the Millennium Falcon in ANH) was modified with a pilot's visor and worn by a female pilot in ROTJ. Most of her shots were cut, but stills from the production remain. That helmet has a red stripe on the mohawk now that is not in the pics from ROTJ. |
