Darth Voorhees Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 So as some of you seen i had purchased this helmet from Wilson here on the board. I forgot to take myn own before pics, but here is what he posted, and its exactly what i got..the illustrious pancake helmet, as i affectionately call it lol So here's how i got it: With id say about 2 hrs of me fiddling with it with a heatgun and some gaffers tape, i got it pretty far. Today i took it in the shop for about 20 minutes and did a little fine tuning. Its not complete yet, but its coming along very nicely already. Its about 8 million times better at this point lol. Need to pull in the back of the faceplate a little bit still and fix the crooked visor lol Thats all im doing for right now because i should be working on orders/commissions not this right now, but i couldnt resist getting right to it when it arrived lol.

Darth Voorhees Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 Thanks guys Ye Chef, im pretty much leaving it as is, i just need to put the wire in it to help it keep its shape, and glue everything properly, theres only hot glue holding it togther...and i gotta take the screws out of the visor/faceplate. Shapewise though its pretty much staying the same. The left visor is sticking out compared to the body, just wanna fix that and then i think it'll be done....THEN i'll get rid of the nasty fishhook and graphics lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
