Thank you! Happy to send a (sloppy) .psd file if anyone wants to play around with the colours on that template too.
I'm just hoping he's still taking commissions. These, coupled with sabers from Saberforge... I'm a happy kid in a candy store. Faethien wrote:

I'd love to help but I suck at PSDs ...
My girlfriend's pretty good though, but I'll have a hard time convincing her to do anything Star Wars :/ |

1. You are looking at my signature.
2. Now you think "Of course I am, you bloody idiot!" 4. You did not realise I skipped bullet point 3. |

Let me know if you're interested! The layers are a bit fuzzy, but it came out alright with mine, so.

Update: I've contacted the Etsy store which I listed. Turns out they're both roommates and do the work together, so jackpot! Super friendly guys who respond within minutes.
Everything is cast and hand-finished in California, with darn reasonable pricing. They honestly look like the real deal. Currently in the process of commissioning a Shock Trooper and Boba helmet and got the green light for a custom paint job bucket as well. I'll keep you guys posted in the coming weeks, hopefully these guys are as reputable as they currently seem. |

Wow those helmets look absolutely beautiful. I'm very tempted to commission one myself but the exchange rate just kills me. I can't stand to pay 25% extra on American imports anymore!

I'm located in Canada too! The exchange I'm seeing numbers of about $300 CAD per, which isn't bad when you consider the crummy quality costume helmets which retail for $90-150 up here. If you're honestly interested, I might be able to work something out with him for bundled shipping with my own, and depending on where you are in Canada I could dispatch that to you. Just a suggestion.

Thank you for the offer! I'm located in Southern AB. I'd have to agree, some of the stuff we have up here should not be on store shelves. I'm doing my cosplay with a budget of about $500 max right now, and I'm looking to include body armor in that for dueling so unfortunately I don't think I can get one now. I would definitely like to do a Mando cosplay soon though, I'll have these guys saved for that.
