Lion's MS3

helmet finnished..... for the most part. Still needs a few minor details, white arc's on the ear caps, and I think I missed a scratch or 2 (that was a joke)

Much Thanks goes out to AFF$$ for showing us that good things can come from can work and for inspiring me to follow in his lead. Your paint jobs are stunning and I hope mine came out even 1/2 as good as the work you do as this was my 1st attempt at a bucket.

MS, Your a master prop maker bro, saying Thank you for providing us with such flawless canvases to work on just does'nt seem enough. Thank you very much David, your products and your excellent customer service are a tribute to the person you are. I hope I did your helmet justice.

That right ear does need a scratch or 2.

But otherwise ... excellent looking helmet.

SWEETNESS!

It looks awesome!

Looks good bro

Great job!

That looks great, especially for a 1st time!

Makes me want to go and work on mine!
Fianlly the weather out here is clearing out and I can start going outside to paint and work on props!!!!!

ABOUT TIME TOO!!!

Sheesh... is everyone here an artist???

Awesome paintjob man!

First attempt eh??? Well you definately have the knack!!!!! Looks awesome. Only thing I can see that you might wanna do, is add the white detail on your RF side earcap, but you probably already know that
D

Wicked paintjob on that bucket buddy!

You get 2x from me thats for sure...

LOL .. Like it that much eh Mason ?

Thanks everyone, like I said before, it's great to be part of a community where everyone does such nice work and shares how it's done. I love seeing everyones pic's of the parts they complete. I can honestly say that everyone thats posted here in this thread has inspired me in one way or another to keep the faith that I could do these parts myself and make them look decent. I spent ALOT of time trolling these boards gathering up the info I needed for specific pieces before diving in, and it helps immensly to know what works and what does'nt that someone has tried before.

Sweet! First attempt?! I hope I can get 1/4 of my scratches as good as yours!

Well Done, LP! Well Done!

Niiiiiiice. 8)

Nice ..Colors look great. ....
Very impressive...

Thanks guys your comments good and bad mean alot to me, and getting a thumbs up from you sets my mind at ease. You know how we are our own worst critics when it comes to your own work.

After seeing the work you do though I think I may revisit the backside of the helm later this year and try it again. That seemed to be the toughest part for me, might have been because I did it last and was getting burned out from work and all the late nights finnishing up the costume here over the last month or so.

many late nights sitting up painting that baby, I'm sure you know what I mean

I know I could have done better had I given myself a lil more time, but all in all I'm happy with it for now.

I'll try to compile a list of the paints I used and carry on the tradition in hopes that someone finds the info useful, just as I have in yours.

That would really be helpful. I love paint lists.

BTW, that helmet is sweet.

Great job man, looks terrific!
