Leather Helmet Skirt

I finally found some time to finish my Cold Cast Jango helmet so i decided to add the leather skirt that trails around the inner edge of the helmet. I drew up some plans and have got as far as a paper template. This is still at a pretty rough stage but the general shape is there.

As I studied pictures of the ILM version it became apparent that this is quite a complex job, all the segments appear to be separate entities and sewn together before installation.

I will be getting the leather tomorrow and will then put one together, hopefully I can find the correct colour. More pics to follow.

I'm currently selling my CC Jango lid as it stands (no gasket). However, I will continue with the skirt template. I've done a few sewing tests (materials, angles etc.) I will shortly be making the prototype along with another Jango helmet in which I will attach it.

If it turns out well I will be producing these for sale.

Hey BM - Any updates? Are you planning on selling these? I need one for my FP CC too.
