Hello all! I'm finally getting around to posting the results of my homemade Blue Ranger helmet and the accompanying costume. While I'm sure no one was waiting with bated breath to see the outcome, I am sorry I took so long just the same. I had a blast at Dragon Con and everyone was very complimentary of the helmet. I am proud of it, no doubt, but the reception from the con goers was really flattering. When I set out to make it, my goal was to make a helmet indistinguishable from one of Aniki's. I knew from the outset I would fall very short of this, and yet, one person told me that the only difference he could see between my helmet and another cosplayer's, dressed in a perfect, screen accurate costume, was that his helmet was shinier. He must have been drinking... Nonetheless, his kindness and everyone else's warmed my heart and made it that much more worth it. I'll start off with the "hero" pictures from the event and then follow with the "making of" photos.
Last but not least, I was wondering if anyone owning a stunt cast helmet could provide me with some measurements. My helmet was not so drastically large that it ruined the overall look, but I want my sculpts to be as close to show accurate as possible. It is my intention to sculpt all the MMPR/Zyuranger helmets (and all the other super sentai helmets someday!) and any measurements provided would prove invaluable. For example, around the center line of the helmet, from under the chin around to the back or from side to side over the apex of the helmet. Any measurements of the features such as the lips, eyes, tusks, teeth, etc. would be helpful too. Many, many thanks to anyone willing to take the time to do so!
