Don Post Biker Scout Mod

[ALPHA D UNIT]

Greetings! Just wanted to show yall my nearly finished Biker Scout bucket. I've always loved the style of the scouts, and wanted one of their helms more than anything. I am always seduced by prices over screen accuracy and such. Im not tryin to join the 501st or anything like that. I just wanted my helmet to look the part. So i followed some of the methods used over at bikerscout.net, and modded my 60$ Don Post bucket, into sumthing im quite proud of.

Heres the pics:

Delivered

Oh the glee!

Started by adding a 65 degree bar to the chin

The tutorials called for putty, but I wanted more flexibility, so I went with silicone

Looked great, but now the visor was all over the place

Clamped it down and siliconed the entire edge, inside and out

Boom, shaping done!

Heres a pic of a screen used one for comparison

So. Next up is getting better looking bolts for the hinge, filling off the don post plate on the back, and getting correct fish-hook decal. And finding a good lens replacement. Maybe weathering..........lol

HAHA! That picture with the visor flare looks like the Flying Nun! Nice work on this. Looks like the bottom back of the faceplate could stand to flare out a bit more, but otherwise, excellent!
