I love the helmet!

 

I just noticed though, it's a lot of bumps on those ears, or am I just not seeing straight?

Well the first 3 coats for the HDPE color is Rustoleum for plastic Taupe color, then another three of Rustoleum Professional High Performance Enamel(silver can) gloss white. Then for the details I used Humbrol, Humbrol gloss #14 for blue stripes and for the vocorder, frown, earcups, teardrops and traps black satin #85, grey gloss #5. I hope this help you.

 

Great job Armando.

 

Thanks Thayne. Long time I not see you....well I have been away from the forum for a while :rolleyes:

You know if you were to sell this lid. A lot of people would be outbidding each other.

I am not sure what to say that hasn't been said already, but since finding this site, I keep going back to this helmet build and looking at the photos again and again. It's so authentic looking, it is THE helmet I would love to have displayed. Amazing work!
