Wow that looks super smooth i didn't know that's how smoothcast came out, the outside looks ultra smooth to. That's gunna sick when it's done, I know there's threads on this, but are there any tricks you use personally when working with bondo that you would share?
I'm sorry, but did you use bondo? If you did, how did you get it so smooth? The reason I ask if you used it is because when you put in the hardener, it doesn't come out gray. Unless you primed it after you bondoed.
You know I will!That is an absolute thing of beauty. I'd love to see a cast from that mold when its finished, post some pics up on here of the first cast for us, will ya?
Update...
I took some pictures outside with something other than my phone. These show it for its true self.
I think I'm gonna reprime and call this done and ready to mould.
My supplies will be here soon. I will post some progress pics when I have them.
Now to finish the vac-table and get on to the armor!
Question: Does aqua resin dry as hard as fiberglass?

watching this on both boards lol
this is AWESOME and BEAUTIFULL work man! Are you planning on molding this? This is one of teh best RC helmets ive seen !
Liquid resin is what makes fiberglass hard after curing. The fiberglass just provides additional structural support. So if your piece is gonna be under alot of wear and tear I'd probably want to glass it but if you're careful you should be just fine with resin
Wow. Your attention to detail is stunning. I am looking forward to your future progress on this helmet.
i am wandering if u could post a link to the pepakura file to this helmet
