Thanks guys!
I finished the right mandible this afternoon. That leaves only a bare handful of details that I'll do just before the final clearcoat.
I'll be working on the ears next.
The ear fit test means things are getting really close! Not to get too technical, but the ear fit test is a test performed on the ears to make sure they fit.
The next stage will be to add my special weathering blend of 11 herbs and spices, coat the helmet in a buttermilk and egg mixture, roll it in bread crumbs, and deep fry until golden brown!
Mmmmmm... wait, that can't be right.
More of the final details in progress.
I drilled out the molded-in Borden and replaced it with a machined aluminum piece from Machinecraft Replicas. It's a pretty easy little upgrade!
I weather the Borden by applying a muddy looking acrylic wash to "age" it, then apply some silver chipping.
