I would say I'm speechless, but I'm trying to save something for when you finally have it all finished.

Really, really beautiful work.
Even if you don't replicate this for others it is a pleasure to see your craftsmenship unfold.

I'm not saying anything every time there's a new batch of pics because I don't want to seem like a pest... but this is the coolest thing I've ever seen anyone make.

Nice Work on the Helm!
I have a Cinemagic magazine from 1980, which in the letters section shows someone who made his own 2001 Astronaut suit including helmet, for about 60.00 1980 dollars. The pics shows a really impressive suit.
