Here is the whole progress of painting the T-45d helmet. First I sealed the helmet with 3 layers of plastidip, then primer , then silver paint and as last I handbrushed on dark grey paint to give it a rusty and weathered look.

Finally finished sealing the power armor with 3 layers of plastidip.

Spraypainted the armor silver and got the lenses installed for which I used a pair of dark tinted ski goggles and added a sheet of self adhesive headlight fly eye mesh to make them look cooler. And yes I can still see clearly through it.

I've been following this build on Instagram, your work is amazing Tom! Can't wait to see it finished.

This is looking incredible! I'm really impressed with the finish of the plastidip. It definitely helps create that metal armor effect.

Can't wait to see the finished product!

That looks really cool. I'm impressed with how quick your work has been on this. I'm jealous.

Got the first photos back of my power armor taken at Gamepitcon 2016.


Also met some great vault dwellers.
