*OFFICIAL INTEREST THREAD* for Spideyfett/Evan4218 Machined Metal Ears

Thx, i have to keep that in mind..lol.
I made the list!(y)

now, i think you'll need rest from the helmet once the second half is done!

cause I need Armor:love


Six -

Keep in mind that focal length of the camera plays a key factor in what you see as well. The real helmet actually has nearly no flair at all :lol: It's an optical illusion we've been focused on for years. Between the ears, and the camera tricks, we've seen the helmet look almost ridiculously wide, to pinheaded. So that's what we've come to expect to see :lol: The pic Alex just posted (although a cool pic) doesn't appear to be taken at the natural human eye / camera focal equivalent, which has been said to be 50 mm. Distance in relation to the focal length is a big factor too. In some of the exhibit photos we see, the guys that took the pics years ago could have been more than 6 ft away, and zooming ... we'll never know. But what is certain now, and I'm sure that Spidey, Evan4218 and Darthmiller will concur since they got to see it ridiculously close, is that what we've come to expect see in pictures, is not what it really looks like in person.

This will become much more clear when you see the FPH in person, and can sit back with it and reproduce all of the angles when you're looking at your computer screen digging around for all that paint detail reference ;) <clears throat> I do believe you're on the second half of the list ;)

Alex,

I sat out in the woods all day freezing my butt off! :lol:

I came home had a hot shower, then had dinner and drinks with friends. :cheers

THEN... I checked out the ears. I Ooohed and I Aaaaahed! (y)(y)

Kelli was not impressed at all! :p :lol:

Right after that off to bed... I was wiped out from the day.

Pics tonight! :D
