Re: Spaceballs Dark Helmet Costume (W.I.P) Big Update August 1st !

Ok guys !

Big update today !

I've finish my vac form table , bought my black polystyrene and..... Mold the Biggest Dome I ever made ! :D

I worked very hard this 2 last months on this M**** vac table , tried to find all the pieces to make it happen , enlarge the suction area, bought a mig welding machine, etc etc etc... and put it all together . That's why it took so long

so it's only a test with 0.80 black styrene just to make sure that dome fits on the vac form table, adjust the suction of the shop vac and the heating supply .

Sooo ! here is a teaser of what it's gonna look like when assembled

enjoy and thanks for cheering for me :)

Jonathan
