I spent a lot of time last night working on parts for this thing and I realized I really need to be grateful for this release. Seeing the initial solicitation for it led me to buy a PC, download Zbrush, have the Enterbay cowl scanned, and ultimately led to me learning what I needed to make my TDK cowl. Now I use like 4 different design software, have more 3d printers than I care to count, and have had my hands on a piece of the Trilogy's legacy, which was really cool.
This took so long to release I was ready to revisit the Begins cowl by now. I kind of knew this going in, but even screen used assets need some revision to look right. I was surprised by the way the mostly unedited Begins cowl looks printed. I think the nasal area gets stretched out and changes the shapes of the eye holes while worn. The Enterbay chin opening shape didn't sit well with me anymore either, so I revised that back to a more accurate shape.
We'll see how this looks printed, the overall shape is spot on but something in the face is off on my first prints.
Also, I know I'm oversharing but man trying to fix stuff like this makes me feel like I have some purpose

Doing custom does that to you. Haha... I was just a cape maker. Now I sculpt and paint as well.
