so heres the rest of the pics of the helm i made..once the electronics and padding etc are added i'll add another blog showing the finished product
(here's a close look a the interior of the helm, it's basically just molded and form fitted layered cardboard the outside of the helmet is a form of plaster cast layered with potters modge, a glue filler/finish^-^)
( Abetter look at the back of the helm)
( first coating of a deep midnight blue base paint, screwed up by not buying a spray paint can had to paint it all by hand)
(added a dark ebony black paint coat to the top, jawline and back of the helm, with silver on the mouth grill)
(added more silver to the helm highlighting ccertain parts with a silver paint job)
ok...so honestly the paint job sucks on this i went and repainted it an hour ago hoping this new coat works well!
im pretty stoked though since this is my first ever actual pro style helmet made ^-^
hope you all enjoy
thanks to volpin props and sean for the video pointers, tips and ideas!
i'm going to start on my custom odst armor soon, so hopefully if i can actually do it i'll have some pics in the next couple months fo ryou all to enjoy!
