[QUOTE="MBsK, post: 5326385, member: 224617"] Hello guys! It's been a while without creating new helmets, I'm looking to improve my painting techniques first. I basically apply primer and use automotive spray paint. The result is good, but I want something more professional. • I don't want something super complex, but I would like to make my helmets more realistic,with a finish that simulates metal, something better than I already have. Can you help me by indicating techniques and materials? • Another thing I would like to do is make the viewfinder sturdier and more realistic. I just use a thin plastic (acetate) and insufilm. But have I seen many replicas with visors that appear to be acrylic? • And finally. I would like to know if anyone knows any tutorial for the the lights? I use a simple, manual led system. But I've seen helmets that have a remote system. Does anyone have a tutorial for this? Any suggestion for that too Every help is welcome! Thanks. [/QUOTE]
