Hi Everyone, I just joined the forum after lurking for a few days... I got excited about this after seeing Adam's armor up for sale on ebay... $22k, way to go!
Anyway, I am quite experienced with pepakura and building of papercraft objects. I recently completed the Pulse rifle from aliens and am most of the way done with an Iron Man helm, which I am fiberglassing now after seeing the tutorials on here. Pics to follow!
I just printed my MC helm @ what should be the proper scale, and I plan on fiberglassing it and using bondo for the details. I have a great deal of experience in modeling, but not so much in the plastic casting
I'm gonna go with my strengths, and try to get as close as I can to BlueRealm's helmet, I'll keep ya'll updated!
One question I haven't been able to find an answer for in my couple days of scouring these boards... what's the best method/material to use for padding in a helmet? I was thinking of cannibalizing one of my old motorcycle helmets, but if someone has a good method, I'd love to hear about it!
