Dude, you really don't need to yell.

Despite your years, you are doing an incredible job on this, I think you have a very bright future. I really think you should stick at this type of thing, you seem to have the two most important things down, logic and creativity

I agree with NZ on this one. Keep this up, build up a portfolio and you'll be making movie props like the pro's.

Are you going to make molds of this or is it a one-shot deal?

People really seem to get me mixed up with awesome people sometimes!
I just couldnt take credit for this, but Ill take the helmet if thats ok with you!

how did you get the grooves like that? did you uses a dremel after you bondo'd it?

 

[Simons]

Holy crap man that's a nice Iorn Man helmet

I can't do anything right now because it's cold in Colorado, so my resin won't dry and i get choked to death by fumes in my garage

[SGT Razor]

Wow, this is still super impressive.

Earlier in the thread (pg. 3, I think) he said he did use a dremel to make the grooves.

Ok. This is pretty cool looking. Just a test using EL wire for the eyes. (You can NOT see through it. I just put paper in the eye slots so it would look right. Im probably going to use a white mesh material for the eyes.

Dude, That is so nice looking... ^.^... I love that... What are those lights?

To answer a few questions,

The lighting is blue EL wire that I bought a while back for my Energy sword but i still havent got around to finishing it. Check out Vibelights.com

I cut the grooves in the helmet using my dremel cutting wheel.



Right now im at the airport waiting for my flight home. It leaves at 3:30 today and right now its 11:11. Ive got a lot of time to kill. :-( As for the helmet it obviously hasn't been worked on while I've been on vacation, but as soon as I get home Im going to get to work on it! I almost forget what it looks like. As for molding it, It's a possibility. If enough people are interested I would take it into serious consideration. I've never molded anything like this before and would love to get some more experience in that area.

Thanks everyone for all the positive comments!!

 

[Pkmnjunky7]

DOUBLE POST!!

(Sorry bout that)

Anyways yeah I just thought I should let you guys now that I'm finally home and you can expect more progress in the next few days. Thanks again everyone for the kind words (NZ, Keegan, Friendly, Mowhawkman, Aobfrost, Robo 117, Macattack, etc.) Vacation was great and It's good to be home!!

 

[Skullcandy Girl]

Yeah, INCREDiBLE work CAn't wait to see it all painted!

Thanks.

As for an update... I have the holes for the ears cut out and im still working on detailing and smoothing the ears out. Nothing photo-worthy right now. As I get closer to finishing I'm starting to think more about what I want to do with the finished product. I really would like to mold it, but I don't know if enough people are interested that I could make up for the cost of the molding supplies. So here's my question.

If I were to mold this helmet when It's finished, who would be interested In purchasing one? (I will probably start an interest thread in the classifieds when its all done, but for right now I'm just wondering)

 

[daecu]

dude the helmet looks AWESOME i can't wait to see your final.... inspirational truly

 

[lseyler]

Looks pretty sweet!!! Looking at your helmet makes me excited for the movie to come out!! I can't wait to see the finished product.
