No problem It's so cool to see what people can do with the models I make. Small question: how good is the visibility through the visor when you use reflective/chrome paint on it? I have a few ODST casts I want to try and make a visor for with clear plastic and blue reflective paint on the outside.
It's so, so. I've done a few visors this way and the visibility isn't great - it's like looking through very dirty sun glasses, but you can see and you're not gonna be bumping into stuff or tripping over The visibility can be improved dramatically with the quality of the chrome paint and how well you apply it...you really only need a very light dusting to get a good mirror effect..practice makes perfect But as I said - this was a scrap of plastic and I used cheap silver paint as I didn't have any chrome at the time.
