Hey guys. Decided I should probably post about the project I'm working on. What I've decided to do is make an ODST costume (original, eh?). So far what I'm working on is the helmet, as I will shortly be making an extended trip to Japan for a few months, so I want to have a finished helmet to get me into making the whole shebang.
Here's a picture of the helmet thus far:
I've got the pep file constructed as you can see, and I have resined it. Since this was my first attempt at resining, it's quite sloppy, but I figure I'll clean that up during the touchup stage after I get the rondo inside. Either tonight or tomorrow I'll get that rondo in so I can have as much time as possible to touchup and cover this puppy in bondo.
Here's a video of it. It's easier for me to ramble on film about the project than it is to type it all out.
Special thanks go to RUNDOWN for making the pep file I used, and to Ben Streeper for his awesome videos that have pretty much taught me everything I could have hoped for to get this ball going.
