could some please check out these 3 paint samples and suggest which colour would be best, thanks

Why are you leaving the holes in the visor? Why not dremel it out and add a transparent visor? Is this a stunt helmet? Sorry, I'm not as familiar with Ranger wear as I'd like to be...

 

[tomahawknutter]

na its ok mate, yeah this one is a stunt cast helmet, tbh im not gona be wearing this much cause i dont go to cosplay events, this is mainly for my shelf thefore i dont mind it having an incomplete visor, also i didnt order one at time of purchase due to lack of funds.

its a weird shaped visor needed for this, dont think an ordinary motorbike visor that people use for halo helmets would work

That green looks really good, man!

 

[tomahawknutter]

yay
i spent 15 mins staring at 2 tins of paint in B&Q today, just couldnt decide which one was best, i chose the darker one and im glad i did, looking at it now, i dont think the lighter colour would have worked as well

 

[tomahawknutter]

ok guys, made sum real progress today, i unwrapped the tape to reveal the sexy helmet below, ( love it ) and taped it all up again to work on the black area's

soon i will post pics of me doin the silver parts

 

[Snarkticon]

"Sexy" is exactly the right word to describe this helmet! It's shaping up quite nicely, mate!

 

[tomahawknutter]

Beautiful. Great work so far. Are you going to clear coat it and shine it up afterwords?

damn straight if nothing else it will help stop the paint from cracking and peeling, but will really make it look like a proper helm
