Heres my update for this weekend!


So looking at the helmet i noticed that the strip that goes all the way around separating the dome from the bottom half of the helmet, was a little tilted downward towards the back. So i decided to tackle that next...


I marked off with tape where it should be..

I then used the cutting wheelon my trusty dremel and trimmed it away.Since it was stillthe posterboard,it was easy to remove. the white strip is where the posterboard i removed was.

i then added on bondo to form the strip, carved ita bit with a box cutter blade before it was fully cured,and sanded it to shape. I also angled upward the bottom rear edge of the cheekbone area,as it was going straight outandit should have the angle like the bottom of the cheek. i alsoadded the triangle detail to the for head. i stillthink i wanna take down the front of the dome a little bit more though.

Im hoping ill have the main helmet done by the end of next weekend. Everything will still need to be cleaned up and straightened out perfect before i even think about taking a mold from this. It is still a tad rough in spots. But once i fix all that, i will then make the keyslot area and the ears.
