Looks awesome! Love it with the visor installed...and to be honest, I can't see a difference tween you and your worker wearing the helm. Looks great on the both of you. Thanks for sharing!
Stay safe,
Tim.

I can't wait to see what you can do with the torso!

Spase said:Awesome Helm btw.... looks great. And plastic is completely repairable, its just a bit less intuitive than fiberglass. Awesome helmet.
What scale did you build your Pep to?

Both visors were mounted in 4 positions - both ends of the temple, forehead & even on the snout sections. Visors were drilled with holes on their mounting positions & fiberglass putty was used to adhere both visors to the inside of the helmet.
Sorry for the reso of the pic below, but those round tan colored spots you see on the visors are the mounting positions or the fiberglass putty (resin mixed with fiberglass & patching compound) - very strong bond!
You have to use a grinder & grind those mounting positions to bits before you can remove the visor!

Halo_1 said:Bro,
Have you ever thought of using Chicago Screws to mount the visors into place? Since the helm is made from fiberglass, it should hold the Chicago Screws fine, and it'll allow for easier, quick removal for cleaning or replacement.
Here's what I mean by using the Chicago Screws, this is my setup on my BM Helm.
Just an idea.
Stay safe,
Tim.
