All of their helmets have been tinted, thus far. They used to wear simple opera masks though, which only covered their eye region... The Discovery-era publicity helmet had a bit of Gold tint to Guy-Manuel's visor, too, iirc. There's a shot where they're near the Eiffel tower and Guy is...

OK... my idea for the coloration of the visor is to first spray it with some tint, like Night Shades or something... Then, mask off sections to get some color variance, and overcoat the tinting with these two: Those are Tamiya brand paints, and they are clear yellow and clear orange...

OK, seeing as I am a Daft Punk nut, I will clear a LOT of things up... 1. The picture in the first post is of Guy-Manuel De Homem Christo, one half of the MUSICAL GROUP Daft Punk. He is wearing his actual helmet. Either that, or it is one of the two actors who portrayed the group in their film...

Darn! I didn't get to see it. Wish I coulda; Half Life, like Halo, is one of my vices... Well, I don't know what was with Firefox earlier, it said the video was deleted from youtube. I dunno. Good work so far, and I can't wait to see more!

From my personal experience, having used an external drive since December 2007... No. The external drives can only be used for media -- videos, pictures, music files -- most file formats supported by M$ will work -- this means no *.MOV or other Apple formats... The Xbox will allow you to...

:mad: It's tooooo smalllll!!!! Began work on my Thomas printouts... Oh, geez... See, I figured I would take my original printout, since I had already printed it out anyway, and begin assembling it, as I already figured I needed to scale it up to fit my huge head... and yeah, I was right. Got...

Dang, I forgot to ask that before, can someone give a general scaling size for this project? And are the instructions on how to scale up in Pepakura in one of the stickies? I might need to make this PDO a bit bigger for my noggin... Figured it out! Oh, and edatron, snazzy coat! What brand is...

Hey Tyman, I'm from Port Huron originally! I am now living in Mount Pleasant, MI, though. I am going to attempt the Thomas Bangalter helmet first, but I also hope to do the Guy Manuel at some point, due to Halloween -- me and my roomate are going out as Daft Punk! :D Let me know how you...
