Phase 1 Bacara helmet project (DONE!)

IMO The phase 1 design is better than the phase 2 one, well done EVO3! (y)

New updates today. I molded the master and made my first pull a few days ago. Visor and frown vents have been cut. I also finished up the removable neck ring. Here are the pics.

Plastic is a material property, not a material. The material looks like urethane to me (correct me if I'm wrong Evo)

Yes sir, it is resin. Smoothcast Roto to be exact.

Got it painted in white today, and tomorrow i'll be shooting the grey for the cheek covers. I'll be able to start detail and weathering after that. Stay tuned for more pics.

Wow, that's looking incredible. :) If I had the dough, I wouldn't mind owning one myself.

Thanks Jon. You may get your shot at a few of them. (y)


Im happy to say that the helmet is complete! Ive spent the last few days painting and weathering. Even made a new antenna for it. Its a bit different than the phase II antenna. I was gonna go for a different paint job, but then i kind like the simplicity of the paint job of the phase II, so i stuck with it. I may add a stripe or two later down the line. For now though, im happy with the way it turned out.
