Darth Voorhees Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Just finished this up and just wanted to show everyone. Im not going to lie, this helmet is not simple to put together, and i had a few hiccups along the way, but it was all resolved and in the end it came out awesome. Im VERY happy with this helmet ...id recommend it to anyone! The Snout is one of mine. It was actually a test one cast in a grey resin i custom mixed white and black pigment into the resin. The "hook" decal is one of mine also. The rest of the decals are LW. LW's hook is actually just fine, but i wanted to use one of mine, cuz well, i make them lol. I also installed the helmet liner, which also needs to be modded to fit into the helmet properly. I will post a how to of that soon. Im using the real 3m bolts in grey as well. I also have magnets locking the face down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRookie Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 By the way, how'd you do the scuffs? paint, or did you actually scuff it up? Stupid question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRookie Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Thanks . For the spray paint, did you tape up where you didn't want the primer and held the can far away to give it that look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
