chilledmilk Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 do we paint inside of helmet? in the Kashyyyk trooper helmet with the ears actually cut out you would need to paint inside black to help the effect and to keep the inside of helmet from blinding you? do you paint the inside? if so with what? how do you keep the fumes of spray paint from getting to you? or is that an added bonus that we here at BSN don't talk about?

elwyn5150 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I painted it with a brush using a matt black. I don't think it matters too much how you paint it and how it looks since only you will over see inside it and nobody is going to peer right down those holes. It's more of a matter of getting it black. If you are spray painting, you could consider a mask while painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Yeah, I just brush paint the inside of the ears black, so when you look at it from the front you can't see anything on the inside. As for fumes... Suck 'em up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southscout Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I taped my helmet up in a cut-open plastic bag with masking tape on the ears from the inside. Then I spray painted it with black plasti-dip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntman Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I taped it off and made sure not to be wearing it when i spray painted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
