Clone Flying Tiger Helmet

[dstreety]

I'd been wanting to do a Star Wars helmet for a while. I love the Episode 3 style helmet that bridges the gap between the clone helmet and the stormtrooper helmet. I'm not a sculptor (yet) so I bought a blank helmet off eBay. I liked the idea of something different rather than screen accurate so I started with the Gree helmet and as I thought about the green, I started to think about my favorite aviation theme, The Flying Tigers. So the Gree-Flying-Tiger-Woodland-Camouflage-Clone helmet was born.

Wow thats nice. Can you see out of it?
I may just have to make my own. Who did you get it from?

I would get on ct.net and pick up a blank clone from Evo3. He added a neck ring to his so it's more accurate and the castings are nice and clean and he is a reputable seller

You can see out of it. It's actually layers of lens built up so it's a plain smoke tint piece of film with a green piece then the gold film on top. You can get small pieces of all these different colored film tints on Yahoo's DIY Hut. Then you can get some thin pieces of plastic to tint. I bought the blank helmet on eBay from:
