Looks good Jaybox! I have a question as I also have Asok's awesome coldcast: as you know, when you sand up the lid, you get an amazing aluminum sheen which I guess was added to the resin. Every tutorial I have seen shows people priming the entire lid and the actual metal scrapes and damage are painted last. For this helmet, do you just mask the scars etc and use the helmet's natural metal finish rather that painting it afterwards? It seems odd to paint the metal finish when the helmet already has that look naturally.
