Re: Daft Punk Helmet Build

The helmet left for San Diego this morning. If anyone is going to ComicCon on Saturday, keep an eye peeled for this golden bucket wandering around.

I'll bet you five bucks he's going to be at the Tron Legacy panel @ SDCC. I can't wait to hear the new Daft Punk music for that movie.

Absolutely beautiful build, Volpin. You really have amazing talent.

Reading this build thread over the last few months has actually made me a bigger Daft Punk fan. It's a very impressive helmet. :thumbsup

I've been a huge Daft Punk fan since 1995. Since I first saw their helmets I always wanted a set.

Dude, these turned out great!

I have some stuff I'd like to get plated like that, about how much did that run you?

The gloves were $100, helmets ran me $150.

OKAY! The final post is live on my blog, I got my pics back from my photographer, so now I Can spill the beans!

You want detail shots? BAM!

Full on pics at multiple angles? BOOM!

Fancy, Artsy shots? OH YEAH!

A three-minute YouTube video showing 749 steps for you to make your very own helmet? HERE YOU GO!

17 months of work... So glad to be done. If any of you guys are going to SDCC this weekend, keep an eye out for this bucket to be wandering around.

Oh, for more detailed descriptions on the build, check out my blog in my signature. More pics, in higher rez, available on my flickr stream

FEELS SO GOOD TO BE DONE.

Congrats, man! I've been following this project from the beginning and although it feels weird that it's now done, I have to say it's amazing to see what you've managed to accomplish this past year and a half.

Truly inspiring work! Congrats on completing it so beautifully.

Beautiful. I regret not being able to get to the con this year - I think seeing your awesome helmet there would have been a huge thrill since I've followed your progress here so closely. Really superimpressive work.

Has it been a year and a half? I've gotten so used to eagerly awaiting updates for this build I don't know what I am going to do with myself now!

The helmet looks fantastic, and its nothing short of a massive achievement.
