    MSH-1 Progress Pics

    I finally got some time to work on the MSH-1 that I will be selling upon completion. Here's a few pics so far...still in the early stages, though.

    Got the back finished.(And a headache) Now to finish the ears and install the visor then off the The Cargo Hold! Pardon the lighting on the pics. The lights in my house always jacks around with the colors on the helmet. I'll shoot some more tomorrow in natural lighting.

    The helmet looks amazing, and that is an astonishingly green background.

    Wow! Looks fantastic.
    And the most amazing part is you painted the whole inside of your house fluorescent green just to take those pictures!!
    That's dedication.

    She's finished. Well except for the RF and installing the MQ-1 Board. I'll post pics later on this evening and then anyone that is interested can make me an offer. I'll also start a 'For Sale' post in the Cargo Hold.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    This is my totally honest opinion. I just think you have pulled of one of the best ESB helmets i´ve ever seen! Your previous work is as good!

    Re: MSH-1 Progress Pics

    Pics are up. I went back a reworkd the grey scratches on the red areas with RS suggested 'Reefer Grey' and it came out ALOT better. I left the Lark Dark Grey scratches on the green parts of the helmet as the Reefer Grey tended to blend with the Green too much and didn't show up in photos.

    Looks fantastic!!

    I just don't know if I could let go of it so soon after completion...especially being an MSH which is a rare casting in and of itself........I KNOW you can re-create the paintjob8)

    Here's to hoping your sale brings a mint

    I'll start the prediction of a selling price of $1255
    (I might just want to sell off my ESB Boba if a trend starts )

    And I was just reviewing your old thread earlier, about the rattlecan choices.
    Was this painted the same way? Any updates to that thread?
