No worries about the delay.
I looked at the Golden Armor helmet a couple of years ago. When I started my wife's Boushh there was them & Todd on the RPF was getting his going, which is a nice helmet, but small from what I have read. I like what Golden Armor has done with their new kit, could be a little more accurate but looks good. Clothears has gotten a new helmet done but haven't seen anything regarding kits so far.
I opted for the scratch build approach cause I couldn't see paying the money for a kit when I thought I could make my own. Plus I scaled the helmet to fit my wife. I didn't want to chance buying a helmet & having it too small.
I did the line details in the top using masking tape built up to a thickness & used filler to give the definition of the raised area. Lots of blending & smoothing.
Thank you for the kind words on the buckle. I am hoping it turns out well.
I haven't actually seen another Boushh costume in person yet or gotten to see other helmets. Very curious though.
