Help on how to detail or put details on a pep helmet

[charlie88]

Hi guys , well i managed to fix the problem i had with the pep designer and the printer settings so yeah but know i have another problem. Its about detailing, since am used to hd peps but resently i have seen alot of halo 4 helmets and they are low def files so there really easy to pep plus you get to pep them faster since they dont have little pieces. My question is how do you add details to a low def pep file??? since all the threads ive seen nobody says anything. What do they use , or what do you recomend??? am really stuck here since my pep helmet is a scout from halo 4 but i dont know where to begin detailing it... Its already resined but not bondoed since before i bondo it i want to know if i have to put details first then bondo or bondo first then details???

It's all about playing around with the body filler. It's something that takes a while to get used to. Go to the 405th forums to get more suggestions for halo helmets specifically.

the sites down for the time beign , i mean not completly but all the important threads are like gone since the site is beign restored slowly. this technique doesnt have to be for halo since ive seen it for iron man helmets too. u mean bondo for detail?? how?? sketch the detail on the helmet then place bondo on it and sculp it while is curing??
