Great work. For the price, I'm going to have to get one of these.

Nice! For the price you can't beat it.

I would love to see someone offer modifications like this as a service.

That looks great, it is impressive what you can do with a little work. Where did you get the replacement ears from?

That turned out well, there are a couple of people in FL doing those right now.

Very nice indeed. Did you cut the ears down? or are those just some other ones you put on there? The two I have seen done cut their own ears down, but this one looks a little better than that to me... maybe you just rock that hard at modifying though... very nice

Came out great! What's your technique for getting those beautiful tube stripes?

Thanks everyone. I used a technique by Mike (TK-4510) on the FISD Forum to paint the details including the tube stripes. He's painting a TE2 helmet. The ears I bought from a guy in the UK, but I think I may have a source here in the States soon. The FISD Forum was a great help in this conversion.

Here is Mike's tutorial. If you jump to page seven, that's where he paints the stripes.

I used the tutorial to get to this point...all I need to do now is gloss and trim

Is there a good place to get trim? I've been thinking of replacing the trim on the other bucket I've got.
