Everything I've seen so far on this thread has just been epic. You have my utmost respect. Looking forward to seeing the full build.

 

[sandy1973]

first attempt with foam for jorge shin (just the knee part)

not so good
I might have to go with paper style because that eva foam smell very very bad

 

[soul products]

eva foam smell very very bad

open the packs and leave them outside for a while, it goes away after a bit

 

[sandy1973]

I can't affort to make any mistake with foam so I try paper and smoothcast to see how they turn out.
Here is the update pic

and I pep this just for fun

 

[sandy1973]

more update for gorge build and some other misc. stuffs
gorge torso still half way done

fond this red halo picture that I build for my son's friend

and this is my other build that I just finish harden it and smooth out a little bit with bondo (I can't do much because it 's too cold outside)

this one will fit over melon head motocycle helmet. We're trying to get 3 suits done by next halloween because I only have 3 hours/ day and 1 or 2 days off /week (I'm working 2 jobs, 1 fulltime and 1 parttime just to keep my family going)

Wow, this is all looking great! I wish I had seen this update before I posted in my thread. If you don't mind, I have a question. What exactly are you using for the "rebreather" on the side cheeks (the black, ribbed tube)? And would it be possible to get an inside view of it inside the helmet? Thanks!

 

[sandy1973]

cable organizer tube cut out into shape and hot glue it on

The Helmets look great. As for a smooth cast build I've done most of mine in just that. You can add a little more on the inside and it will allow you to sand it down to a more round shape. Then you can get 75% or more done now and then finish up with a smaller amount of Bondo when it warms up. Yes I'm from MI. so I feel you on the cold. As for a foam build from what I've seen, allot of people do a pep just to see the size they need. there are a few really nice builds going on right now, I've seen 4 today alone. Good luck on you're build.

im in love with the 2 mc helmets you made.I hope your builds come out as good as those.I'll be watching to see how cool every thing turns out XD.

 

[Mensrea Prod]

I'm liking that red helmet, it looks real good. Nice job.

 

[score1987]

I don't know how you do this. I can barely find the time to pep and i only have one job (well two if you count school). And they look amazing. I can only hope mine turn out as good

 

[sandy1973]

Thank you for your kind words. Yesterday I got a few things done.
I put a first coat of primer on Jorge helmet, motorcycle mc helmet and almost finish Peping Jorge chest. I will getsome pictures up sometime today before to go to work.
update:
got some primer on and size comparison with real motorcycle helmet that I got for 30$

and jorge chest

inside of my helmet (The green one that I no longer have)

that's all for now, I still try to finish peping the jorge chest by tomorrow.
cheers
sandy

 

[sandy1973]

I finish peping the chest and I thing the size is just about right. I try that on me because my older son he change his mind he wants to wear fall out ranger instead.

next step I'm going to make a template for foam insert. hopefully I can get it done today

 

[BLACKULA727]
