The First Star Wars Live Action Clone Trooper Armor!

Ғылым және технология

The recent Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor shows were the first time in Star Wars that Clone Troopers were depicted in live action! The team at FBFX were responsible for the creation of the armor and costume worn on set, and Adam learns from FBFX workshop fabricator Alea Holland (and Imperial Stormtrooper cosplayer!) about how FBFX built the armor using Lucasfilm digital reference and the challenges of making it a practical costume!

    Bringing the clone trooper armor design to life looks really nice and I’ve seen many cosplayers bring ancient Sith Lourdes to life such as Darth Nylas Darth Revan Darth bane in his or ballistic armor, and I think that it would be really cool if the ancient dark Lord of the Sith who served the Sith empire throughout the old republic era, and especially throughout the great galactic war. Darth mar if this dark lord of the Sith. And his iconic armor was brought to life, then that would look really cool in my personal opinion.

    It was so cool to see ‘real’ clone armour in an SW project. I suspect one of the biggest ‘problems’ converting the design from CG to actual armor was the ankles/ lower thigh area. I always remember seeing clone reference pics in ‘05 that always seemed to have rediculously thin lower legs, assumedly because no one actually tried on a suit of it to go ‘yeah that’s too small’

    The sizing can be changed, the worst offender for clones is that hip joint with that big pointing tight armor that sticks out in a very exaggerated way. Especially on phase 1 clones (the ones from episode 2), those things also happen to collide with the belt boxes, to maximize your inconvenience :D As the video say : they were just digital assets and of course you can clip armor parts fairly easily without it being too visible on screen. But once you convert those shapes to physical form... that's an entirely different story of course.

    I didn't notice they were CG in the original star wars in the up close shots where the clones were interacting with the main character (obviously I could tell in the zoomed out battle/army shots) but I was quite young when I originally saw it, now looking at it I can clearly see the CG suits. I think the reason it works so well is because so much of the scenes are CG and basically the only real thing is the actors themselves. If you had everything real and then stuck a CG character in it would be much more obvious that it isn't real.

    I think people would prefer to call it Andor clone armor because beside it also being used there and on much greater scale (Andor had 36 clones if you count them and do the math, a proper platoon), Andor is leagues ahead of Kenobi which was riddled with problems and many people don’t like.

    "What I remember about the rise of the Empire is... is how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Clone Wars, the 501st Legion was discreetly transferred back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip. We all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Jedi Temple. Not a word."

    Got a pretty random question for you Adam. Your famous hat from myth busters. What was it? It reminds me alot of mine, an Akubra Territory. But it also looks different. And another, maybe someone else could answer of they know the answer. Kangaroo repellers, they are usually bullet shaped whistles. Do they work? Honestly I've used them alot when driving through the Australian outback (they are dangerous af btw very unpredictable creatures), and I have had mixed results. Sometimes they seem to work and send them away, other times they seem to make them more likely to head towards the bullbar, the source of their noise. I ask because the last one I hit was just after I installed some new ones, and it managed to directly hit the corner it was mounted on.

    They used to sell whistle things to mount on your car to repel white tail deer. Far as I could ever tell, a complete waste of money. I think there are too many variables, like how fast the animal is already running, which way the wind is blowing, if the critter is "looking for love" so to speak...Just in Michigan, white tail deer do over $1 billion in damage in car strikes every year so insurance companies would require them on every vehicle if they worked.

    @@gl15col that is a good point. I'd say they are similar products to what we have here. And I agree. As I said I've had alot of test results sadly, and there are times it seems to draw them in, other times it seems to drive them away. So there's a good chance it does nothing. Also think aus is similar in vehicle damage. Kangaroos can get very large. If they go over the top of the bonnet they can kill by going through the windshield, if they go under they can flip the car. Either way you end up with some pretty hardcore damage unless your vehicle is armoured up. An example I have a 4 poster very heavy steel bullbar, brush bars, side steel steps, under body protection on my 80 series landcruiser. So it can take a hit or two depending on the location it strikes and how it goes after (a tip to all, brake until your above to hit then gun it. Lift the front of the car up means it'll be less likely to go over the bonnet. Of course of your in a small smart car or the likes, just brake hard and hope).
