mark IV helmet help

[florios]

kay so i want to make a mark IV helmet but i don't want to use paprika or what ever its called and i just happen to have a halo 3 legendary edition helmet so do u guys think i should make a mold of that?

 

[kerotan 36]

that is HIGHLY frowned upon in the molding buisnes

 

[florios]

well i know its like cheating but hey its the fast way out im just looking for the easiest way if u got other ideas?

 

[kerotan 36]

what do you want it so fast for and you only want a helmet?

 

[AoBfrost]

making a mold of a helmet cost like 300 dollars, if you want to make one, go ahead, but it isnt for beginners.

I don't see how the Legendary looks like a Mk IV but whatever you like. It would probably be cheaper to contact one of the suppliers for a helm than try to make a mold yourself of a helmet that is too small for most folks anyway.

Amazon had the game and helmet for 60 dollars a week or two ago, I almost bought it, but I dont have a xbox360, and I dont need a low detailed cheaply mass made helmet. Really that helmet is worth only 5 dollars at most from production.

A pep helmet customized with cardstock or cardboard after detail will be alot more detailed than a legendary helmet.

PEP would be the best way to go.

Wait, does this guy mean the Mark IV or does he really mean Mark VI.
Oh yea, I lol'd when he said paprika.

i did too. nonetheless, stick with pep until ur ready with molding, cuz its a much of chemicals and "the right amounts of this and that" which is really hard unless ur a chef or something, then it comes a wee bit easier doing it by eye. molding takes longer as well, but if you think ur ready for it, go. if you have doubts, mess around with pep.
