This looks awesome! Not to keep badger you with the question (I didn't see an answer, really), but are you doing a full-fledged run on these? If so, I'd love to know the price!
Such great work...

Such great work...
guy's the helmet arrived today :P
wings on the package is a nice thouch
this guy is just amazing helmet are recommanded. maybe it is an idea to put the helmet in a plastic bag before going in the box to prevent scratching ?
Thanks for the great pics! You're the first to respond with imput. I will ship in plastic as you suggested. Glad you like it and glad it got there safely.
Top notch!
I'm glad I was able to contact you about the helmet. So excited for it!
yup i am happy with it the best thing was the communication, i think Thats THE most important thing when you are almost on the other side of the world. the only thing that sucks that the guy that makes those helmet stands wont react on any of my messages. so now the helmet is standing on a glass boldand it deserves better :P

Received my raw cast today!
Can't wait to start on it. It's a very clean cast, so not a whole lot of work needed... Just some minor sanding and filling, then paint! I'll be doing the leather work myself as well. Great job on these, Bobby. Top notch. And shipping was ridiculously quick!![]()
Cool man, glad these are making it out and being well recieved. Kevin, I look forward to seeing your leather work. Post it on here when you make some progress, after things calm down after the newborn of course!! So... I guess we'll see your work in 18 years!!! Ha Ha, J/K![]()

Alright, here is my final version. It has gone through many transformations and this is it. I lowered the sides a bit to fit the ear sections better and rolled the back of the helmet out a bit more. Thanks for following me on this project and hope to get out my new improved final product for you guys to see soon.

Awesome man!! I've got 5yo boy girl twins and it adds a whole different angle to your focus but it is so fun. Now I can just blame it on them. "Yeah.... my daughter NEEDS to go see ________ (enter any of the Avengers here)!" There's nothing better than seeing her (notice I keep saying "her," my son's too busy vacuuming
) running around with her Capt helmet on holding her Mjolnir!! It's so much fun!!!
And thanks projectearth, you already know I'm a huge fan!! Your Ironman helmet is awesome. Thanks for your compliment.
I'm just glad I opted for the soft head hammer!My son and I would be dead by now!! Before I started making these helmets I started a little mini TFA helmet for my daughter, but sadly it was shelved for "the cause." When I make some respectable progress on it, I'll post it up on here. Hopfully her little melon hasn't out grown it... Oh man... a little three piece Ironman helmet!?! You know scaled down but movie accurate!!! That would be awesome. Might just be a niche on here for that. I know Kevin will be needing something like that very soon for little "noobie" Parker

Kevin, here is a little sample of what you have to look forward to.This is where I got with my little girl's helmet in between "Big Kid" projects. She's such a little trooper.
I guess I'll finish it off for her tomorrow w/ the "A" and wings...

Made some quick scaled down decals for her helmet. Yep, she was happy:

Very nice!. Can't wait to do stuff like that for my little guy!
Rob, the pics of your helmet are amazing. When do you think the leatherwork will be finished. I noticed you have about 12 helmets done, very nice.
I'm going to try and knock out the leather work towards the end of this week and next week. Just put up a quick run of 5 raw casts in the JY to try and fund the finishing up of this "completed helmet" run. Hang in there Deacon, this round is going pretty smooth, so far...![]()
