Hello everyone,
I was planning to make Recon for my school project so I started making recon helmet by Pepuraka 2 months ago and my first attempted is a massive fail! So i started all over. It's looking so good now phew, I already paint Resin and Harden on my helmet then I used plasti dip And it's turned out looking pretty good and much harder now. Here are my pictures, what do you think about it? :D

Thanks! Yeah well i knew that I'm going to mess up and ruin it on my first try but it's good because you learn the mistakes and you know what to do when you do 2nd time. Thanks and I will :D
 
Finished sanding and yes i know it's looks like the drool is still there but that's from the Resin paint (I did bad job at it)

But there's one thing I'm stuck with it is what paint should i use? I was planning to buy spraypaint but seeing all paint works here looks really awesome. Suggestions guys? Thanks. P.S. any colors will be fine but Blue is on my mind just like in the picture.

Hmm. The only thing I might suggest before you worry about the paint, make sure you are certain those resin lines are something you can live with 5,6,10 months down the road. Better to spend a couple more days refining / sanding the shell than to look at it later and be like "demit man I rushed that" and ultimately create a new helmet. If you are satisfied though - then good on ya, spraypaint is a great solution. It comes in a wide range of prices and colors. Apply your coats lightly and give them time to set between coats.. Hope that helps a bit, and don't hesitate to ask read up on other builds / ask questions! Keep it up x)

Recon backback? First I've heard of such a thing... unless you mean Dare's backpack from ODST - but I don't think you do.

To put it simply, there is no "recon backback" - the H3 Mk.VI torso is universal to all the attachments. You should just be able to mount it (Recon) on the front with whatever method you prefer, if you match the scale correctly.

Hope that explains it.
