Tristancraig Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Hey guys, How are the ear and lens cuts? (I had to sand the paint on the nose region because it bubbled a bit, decals I'll pop on later tonight until trooper bay ones come in for lancer) Overall any other critiques welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunk Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Ears need to be opened up more. The eye lense needs to be "rounded" on the drop portion & a lil more taken off the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwattsup Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Exactly like Joe said, but you also need to round off the top "corners" as well. I posted this comparison picture in your lens thread, and I still don't sit any change from then. I just made another one with paint to help you see some of the changes that need to be made Tristan. The only one I didn't paint in is the the bottom rounded tips and the ears. Hope it helps. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stasz Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Barry with the assist! Well done. Scouts helping Scouts. I love it. Use Barry's pic for the ear reference as well. They're open more than you'd think. You're getting there! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristancraig Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Aww Barry that's just wicked man, I'm basically gonna draw those lines on and go from there. You can kinda see where I took the top line up, and rounded the sides, but it clearly still wasn't enough. I'm still semi paranoid about going too far, but those paint lines will make it easier. The ears I knew were too small, but same deal, didn't wanna over so it. The decals are on for now, it makes me giddy seeing it so close. Thanks again for all the input! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Great critique from the others. I completely agree. I think it is looking much better, and you'll look fantastic when this is done. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwattsup Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Aww Barry that's just wicked man, I'm basically gonna draw those lines on and go from there. No problem Tristan. That's what were here for. Don't draw those lines exact. lol Lord knows I had a hard enough time drawing those on with a mouse. Remember to keep all "corners" rounded. No sharp angles on the lens cutout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tristancraig Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 Here's an updated shot of the ear, and the rounding on the top edge, brought it up a tonne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikko Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Each time you show the helmet it is better. The ear holes could be longer top-to-bottom, if you ask me, but the lens area is looking great.
