DarthVader Minion

Due to the popular acceptance of the StormTrooper Minion and many many request for their Boss(Yes JohnM I hear you!!) , I have decided to design/make Darth Vader Minion.



I surfed the internet for a while and found several depictions of this character.

There were two versions that called my attention.

One being an old school customized figure and another a 3D model mesh used to 3D print a physical figure.

Here are the pictures of both:







After analyzing these designs , you can tell that what defines this character is the helmet, so I returned to surfing the internet in search of paper-craft designs of the helmet, and oh man!

I found several versions of this, as you can see as follow







I decided to use the file shared in the site therpf.com that allows you to create in foam, a real size Darth Vader helmet.

Parts in this specific model are very few and seems to render fine when scaling them down.

I scaled and deformed it a little bit in order to accommodate our friends unique head shape and did a mock-up of the main part.





I convinced a fellow friend to wear it to see what where the proportions



Off course the final guy will be taller!!

That is all for today, I hope to have some more advances this week or next, since this is month end week and a thing called 'Work' is interfering with my spare time.



Best regards
