I'm sorry I haven't been on here much, I was going over some of my past posts and realized I never posted proper pictures of my builds, so here I go. I realize my stuff is nowhere near screen accurate, but as my skill progresses I am getting better with that!
First was the base helmet made from WOF templates, which were a huge help ! I got started from finding the Honus instructable and went from there on my own.
Pardon my lack of pics, I lost alot of build pics in a hard drive crash. I coated the helmet inside and out with resin and smoothed out the dome with bondo. I used a floral bucket for the red faceplate, it was thin, smooth, and had a natural curve. The visor was the clear plastic sheet from a poster frame annd coated with the darkest window tint I could get.
after assmbly was done it was time for paint. I started with a basecoat of "chrome".
I then used liquid car wax applied with an art brush between coats of the chrome, red, blue, and green to mask off battle damage so it has a real layered paint look in the scratches and scrapes.
The "ears" were made from wood and the rangfinder from a pep file, and flips up and down as it should. Again, I wish I had more pics of the build but they were lost forever in a hard drive failure
