I wanted to have my armor done in time for colossalcon but the way it looks the helmet may be the only thing going. but i'm completely fine with that cause i want it to look as realistic as possible. my plan is for it to be the mark v(b) helmet on mark VI armor with the odst shoulders, but i may change. any input is extremely appreciated.

oh and if anyone can help me with how to post images i would appreciate it too. i am new to forums.

There is a button that says insert pic, when posting. Its between the hyperlink and add video buttons. I think it need to be on a image hosting site like photobucket. I upload it on photobucket then copy and paste

Hope this isn't too small, sized it wrong.

The helmet looks good, but I think you may need to try to get some closer pictures of it so we can see the details clearly. =]

Looks pretty good for being your first build. On a side note, what part of Ohio are you from?

got about half the helmet done and decided i need a break. the applicators make it really hard to spread the bondo accurately, especially in the small areas so i'm treating it like clay slip and using my hands. working out a lot better than i anticapated and gives me more control.

i forsee lots of sanding in my near future. \
