Hey everyone, so I was thinking today, and came up with a technique but I need to ask a few questions. I'm trying to make a cast that has all the electronics (lights, fans) and visor literally built or casted into it.
This was my idea.
1. Make a thin cast of the helmet
2. Cut out the visor, install proper visor
3. Install LED's and fans
4. Now here come's my idea. Mask up the parts like the visor and rim of the helmet, and rotocast a few more layers, until the wires and lights, and gaps between the visor and rim of the visor cut out are completely concealed/filled in. Then paint.
This way, the electronics and visor are literally built into the helmet.
My questions are if the polyurethane is hot enough to warp the visor or destroy the installations. If there is anything else I am overlooking, please let me know.
What do you think?
