I think Dwedd is a afraid his dog will think the helmet is a Chew Toy if he puts leather on it. A month from now he would find peices of it in a snow drift in the back yard.

Seriously, knowing Dwedd, when he's done you'll have to touch the helmet to tell if it's leather or not.

Thanks Flan, It's good to know SOMEONE has confidence in me.

BTW, I have a german shepherd named Jango, that loves to eat things.

New Zam Helmet - new updates

OK, update time again. Here's a few new pics.

First, the overall side view. Sorry, it kinda looks a bit washed-out because the silver is so reflective.

A shot at an angle turned out a bit better.

Here's a close-up of how I painted the brim to look like weathered leather.

Now to finish assembling the armature for the binocs.

Nice to see the details put in your helmet. It is really coming along. Do you have any shots of the back emblem of the helmet? What are your plans for the veil and armature attachment?

You know, I was thinking of casting my helmet in liquid plastic, (Smooth-on,) Task 2, but after seeing just how well your work turns out I will follow your guidance to the lettre.

By the by, I know this forum is filled to the brim--leather or otherwise--of very gifted and helpful people. I am glad to have this community. It is a trully incredible resource.

Thanks for sharing.

To me, the word "rest" means all the stuff I still need to do.

This thing rocks! Good thing I'm not trying to dress as Zam, I nearly ripped my ears off, when I tried to remove it!

It might help if you trim it first.

I can only hope I'll look at least half as pretty as you in it when I finally take that helmet off your hands, SC.
Hehehe

That's gonna be tough, he looks mighty pretty. You'll have to show us a comparison pic with it on, and let us be the judge.

Okaaayy...

Though... he does have a certain appeal... in a sick sort of way....

Seriously... the helmet is looking pretty good! Can't wait to see the pics as you finish it up!
