Help naming new Metropolis "Helmet"

RICHIES ARMOR

Sr Member
I just finished this "helmet" as seen in the film Metropolis as worn by Helm during the scene of her transition from human form to the Robotic form. The problem is I cant come up with a name for the peice.
The only real name Ive pondered is "The Maria Transition helmet".

Nothing short and simple or rolls off the tongue. I dont beleive this helmet has been done prior so no real name is available to associate with it.

Any better ideas?

One of the more obscure props, awesome build !

May I suggest painting the insulators in a high gloss off-white, with several clearcoats on top ? I think that would give them the ceramic look the originals had.
 
Hmmm Metropolis-Chic is catchy!!

The insulatots that Ive seen actually have a dull chalky-glass look and not the high gloss porcelane(spell?) look. Anywho thats the look I was after.

It is a bit obscure but since there are very few props available from the film I wanted to do something that hadnt been done.

Great piece, one of my favorite films as well....THe original Matrix if you ask me.


As for the helmet, how about just "Transitioner"
