Doesn't get much better than this folks. Breathtaking G..

How come the base of the right ear is a lighter color then the ear itself?

 

[Misfit2]

I'm guessing that strange phenomenon called lighting.

I disagree...thats why I asked its to close to eachother for it to be lighting

Hi mate, are you referring to the angled foot of the RF ear? If so, that's just lighting...

 

[Fett 4 Real]

Yeh...looks like 2 different colors in every angle...weird

And to think I thought Garrett used two different colors for the same ear all these years of painting the best helmets on the forum....

Just adding the signature scratches/ damage and black scuffs under the dent. Just working around the helmet from front to back, once this stage is complete I will start the paint splatters and misting/ shading.

That truly is a work of art, so impressive

 

[Jayvee]

So, so pretty! :cool

TF are you going to add any of the damage and repairs being this is looking to be AOSW from the black smudges and what not? Looks great!

 

[terminal fettler]

Thanks for the comments! I'm adding most of the additional damage seen in the AOSW pics as this is an SE paint job. I am leaving out the crack repair and obviously the pen marks...

 

[Major]

Beautiful work...

 

[superjedi]

Man, you just nail it every single time!

 

[Necronaut]

If you don't mind me asking, what made those blue pen marks? Was it ball-point ink from a pen that exploded, a jar of ink, a felt-tip marker, or something? I'm doing a '1/2-donkey behind' AOSW paint-up with the crack repairs, etc. and wouldn't mind the insight. Sorry to derail this momentarily.

And excuse me while I wipe the drool from my keyboard. JUST STUNNING WORK, TF!!

 

[terminal fettler]

Thanks mate. It looks like a blue felt tip marker pen, it's almost as if at some point somebody sloppily traced around the base of the helmet or something?

Brilliant work. Looking sensational!
