Hi all!
I'm between helmet commissions, but I recently received a set of Machinecraft Replicas' awesome metal ears that will be added to an upcoming FPH2 helmet.
The set is fantastic!
It comes with 4 ear pieces: left ear, lower RF ear, and a 2- part upper RF ear. There's a newly designed RF stalk, and a complete set of attachment hardware.
Here's how the set arrived.
Clean up will require some sanding to remove some of the machining marks, but a little patience and elbow grease takes care of that.
Once I had the parts sanded and prepped, I wiped them down with alcohol to remove any oils and metal particles. I masked off the areas that will remain bare metal and gave them a couple of coats of self-etching primer.
I let the primer cure for about 48 hours, then laid down the base colors.
Detailing is up next.
