    ok, so here we go. a few weeks ago i started with the pep files from dungbeetle for the war machine helmet. you all know the process on glassing the pep, so lets skip that step. ive started smoothing out the face plate, and working on the jaw of the helmet right now. i cut the helmet in half and made it 1/8 inch wider for that squatty look that war machine has over iron man.

    yea it is! my day job is working on cars. whenever i pull a bad motor out of a car, i take the camshafts out and make helmet stands. cheep and they look ok, with some clear coat to prevent rust. i got the new face plate on, and am fiberglassing it now. thinking of keeping the messed up one as a battle damaged piece.....

    I highly reccomend you track down the sharkhead/nobody warmachine helmet pdo...its already separated into 3 sections and the model is amazing. If you need any pieces that are a bit more movie accurate, don't hesitate to pm me.

    Search the405th.com for the sharhead/ nobody helmet.

    Search the405th.com for the sharhead/ nobody helmet.
    Or wait for Sharkhead to release his new, MORE accurate, SUPER-HD helm that he's hinted at.

    To wait for that helm or not to wait, that is the question.

    Heheh, yeah, hopefully I can get meh buddy to unfold it for me when I finish the tweaking...
    Sad to hear about the helmet dropping, that's the only problem with trying to sculpt over a piece with bondo, it's more brittle than resin. It's happened to me before. =/
