MY MSH2.. It has Begun.

[Spideyfett]

Well, as the title says I’m finally at a place with my own Fett where I can start the painting process on my Fettpride MSH2 helmet.
Many have asked me what my Fett looks like….and well after MANY upgrades this is it, not much I know. :facepalm

I acquired the rare MSH2 from the man himself, Fettpride, almost two years ago. After painting many side jobs, which I like to call “Practice” (thanks Guys), I have completed the first part of the painting process…the part everyone hates, the PREP work .

My goal was to try and make a functional helmet that I could take apart when needed, and replace and upgrade things at a later date.
I also want to create the EXACT Replica of the AOSW exhibit pics…..with all the cracks and scratches…..seeing as how I will only wear this Fett maybe once or twice…it’s basically going on a mannequin once complete.

**So before I go any further... I want an HONEST Critique from you guys and gals…..I want to hear things that you think I need to add or change to be an Exact copy of the AOSW exhibit.

I’ve included pics of some of the things that came with the helmet, and things that I added or built-in in trying to incorporate a workable helmet. (things we’ve all seen before)……It’s the details I’m interested in.

SO PLEASE BE HARSH!!!

(special thanks to EVAN4218 for providing the correct drill bits I needed to make a clean helmet, thanks bro:cheers )

Now the Pics!!

I'm rather curious about how you have the visor bolted in...my visor is removable because I use duct tape to hold it in, lol don't know why I decided duct tape, but mainly did that because I didn't wanna permanently put the home made visor in incase I bought BM visor or something along those lines...plus don't know if they are meant to fit in a MLC

I'll see about posting pics....but I used a Tee Nut. You can find it at Home Depot...Size is 6-32X 1/4"...and be sure to get the corresponding screws..they're made by Crown Bolt.

This type of "tee nut" allowed me to NOT DRILL through the helmet...
I bonded the tee nut to the helmet with 3M Scotch Brand Welding two part mix. It's better than JB Weld...

Again I will post pics..

Seriously, this is one of the easiest Preps I've had to do....just a little tweaking here and there....but other than that, this is a BAD ASS Bucket Bro!!! I'm honored to own one....
I could use another one for my ROTJ....,know what a mean Vern?

 

[fettpride]

Whachu talkin bout willis? You shouldn't use an MSH2 for your ROTJ when there is an ROTJ verson that might turn up pretty soon

It looks like crap Spidey, total crap. Send it to me so I can dispose of it proper, in return I will send you a badly recasted mystery helmet from ebay.

Just kidding, it looks great. Are you going to put the crack on the left (if your wearing it) side of the visor?
