now that you mention it... it kind of does look like a baboon

Really? I always thought it looked like an elephant. The side mandibles remind me of the tusks and the center mouthpiece kinda looks like a trunk. haha :lol: But good progress though! I've gotta get my butt in gear and give my helm another coat of mod podge before I have to head back to school. Curse you, texas school systems :cautious:

EOD helmets, in my opinion, look like a baboon, because the face squishes in at the middle.

I've almost finished building my torso, can't wait till it's done to resin it! I really want to start papercrafting something new!!! I'll put some work in if you need help on your torso though. By the way, the helmet is looking great, I have a mouse type sander we can use on it tomorrow and I can start painting on my helmet as well. Big day tomorrow man, big day! I'm sure we can get a lot done together as we always do cause I really need to update my thread. :D

I've already texted you twice this morning :p
maybe when i get back from my trip you guys will be able to help me finish my helmet. Though if I get the whole thing put together I think its going to be a bit odd for me to carry it through all those airports- no way am i putting it in a bag.
 
spent all today with Jessmo working hard on our helmets. here's my progess.

so far so good. I've re-primed it, going to get more bondo and sanding done.
 
Looks good! You have a lot more restraint with body than I do I usually pile it on thick then spend the next 2 hours sanding and cussing it lol. Thin coats are definately better for keeping the detail.
 
Justin, I know you have had to have done more progress then these photos. You should keep working on your shoulders and arms too and post those pictures up. ^.~

I havent done too much outside my helmet :p just applied bondo to it again today, got ahold of a dremel, so I'm gonna continue work on it tonight/tomorrow and hopefully have some halfway decent progress pictures very very soon.

Spartans playing rock band = amazing~
I think we need to get a video of you playing the guitar and Jessmo playing the drums both with helmets on. I think that would be pretty cool, haha.
