finished my helmet; at last!

I went to Wal Mart and was able to pick up some of this weather-stripping foam. I cut out a bunch of pieces and used industrial velcro to attach them to the inside. Works great!
 
Yeah, i made a couple of non cold cast helmets, this being one of them. The helmet was sprayed with silver enamel then all layered on top, you can still pick the paint off to the silver layer which gives some realistic damage, before sealing with satin coat...
 
You've done a really great job on it.
And thanks very much for posting your paint list, you've saved me a load of time and effort!:)
 
That looks awsome! Do you find it intimidating to "replicate" a paint scheme thats so iconic? I don't think I'm brave enough or good enough to do a movie Fett. Mine would turn out so-so and I'd end up being embarassed by it.
