right now it's been sanded up to 1000, painted, and polished. my next step is to put the mesh in the back, and begin work on the ear cap and rf topper. with any luck i'll be awake in time to get to the welding shop to pick up a visor before they close, but if i don't make it tomorrow i'll go on monday. either way the plan is to clean the flash off the ear and rf, sand them smooth, and get them primered and ready for painting on sunday.
 
your colors look pretty good there. the dark blue is a little different than what i use, but it's not that far off. if that's the closest you can find in your area you're doing just fine.
 
i thought i was going crazy, i was going through my email and pm's, i couldn't remember where you contacted me. and here it was the entire time, in the thread. yes, i have pics of the finished helmet.

WOW!!!! that helmet looks amazing. The finish looks like polished platinum. As far as a helmet seal, what about a motorcycle supply company? Dennis Kirk sells one for cold weather riding that sits flush in the helmet.
 
i think he means the helmet skirt that chucko makes. and if you're interested in having your helmet done like that just drop me a pm.
 
i just put some foam in it. these asok helmets are a little on the small side.
