Well it used to be blue but i painted it black for further modifications. im going to spacle it to add more detail. later if its totally uber awsome ill mold it. but for now its a pepakura skeleton of what it will be.

To Do List:
1. fold and glue into a pep helm: Done
2. Add vents and expanding foam the inside: Done
3. make a cheep soda bottle visor: Done
4. Add detail through spacle: in proggress
5. Airbrush the whole helm awsomly: got to go to Ny to do it.

people who have used spackle seem to have good results. I eagerly await the finished product, and hopefully even a mini tut on using spackle ;)

Wait, aint spackel and "bondo body filler" the same thing?

No, not the same. Spackle is the non toxic, slightly less sturdy equivalent to bondo body filler. It's the white paste-like stuff you spread onto cracks or small holes in walls to smooth them out. But it works pretty well, I enjoyed working with it.

Nice helmet, I dig the black stealthy look. Gonna keep it that way?

I might keep the black stealth look but i dont know. thanks for the comments and i surely will make a tut once i spacle it. i waiting for some money and the ok from my mom to spacle it. :cool: when its done if it looks really really awsome Il mold it with a loan from the art dept from my school.

(note to k-22: mrs. doe said to keep it a secret (the loan) so dont tell..... ANYONE!!.... ok?)
