nice helmet!



btw what was the scale in height?

Well, if you are going to paint it, you batter make sure you can still see through it! D: lol



And I know that there are quite a few people that search around on ebay for the gold tinted visors. I believe it's an HJC branded visor. I've seen them on ebay myself.



But that is looking really good so far. I have that one pepped as well as the HD version. I'm having issues since I'm not making it for myself! XD

im not into ebay coz i dont have credit cards lols.. so im just visiting some motorcycle accessories stores and hopefully they sell gold visors.. but unfortunately i cant find one that sells gold visors...

nice helmet!



btw what was the scale in height?

i didnt change the scales so its in default of 264... lucky for me it fits

its not glass, the visor i used is for a motorcycle helmet, i think its index moto helmet.. its the closest one to a gold finish so i bought it...

 

[blackwolf824]

I was referring to the process you used after resin....you called it "glass". I assumed it was a type of fiberglass, but I am so new to this that I was looking for specific info on products to look for. I am just starting on the pep process.

oh i see... i thought it was the visor your referring to... anyways.. just said glassing to shorten up fiberglassing..

im in the Philippines so most likely you cant find the brand that i used, i just bought it to a manufacturing company for fiberglass...

anyways all you'll need is some resin and fiberglass mat.. that'll do your fiberglassing needs... as for the brand... hmmm



check this one

thats one of my reference materials..
