Ironman Mark 1 Helmet

I have a similar resin casted Mark 1 that i bought off ebay recently; it's not a split piece however it is 1:1 in size and detailed nicely. I'll post pics of it a little later as my laptop is down due to a faulty cord; waiting on it's replacement so I'm working off my iPhone. Really nice work though bro!

No actually not similar at all. ;) You bought the recast Museum replica, only resin Mark 1 out that I know of. Not even close it was an epic fail IMO.
 
Yeah no comparison -

YIKES! I forgot how bad the MR one was.

Finhead, yours is truly a work of art. Great job! One of these days you're going to reveal you are secretly employed by marvel to make the suits for their movies, I just know it. :p

The only differences I see is the final outcome of the paint scheme and maybe a slight size offset. Other than that BOTH masks are based off the hero prop. But since you both put it like that I tell you what; I'll get to work on mine and after it's been prepped, painted and weathered we can compare the two. After all, a lot of us here are fairly talented.

Has nothing to do with paint actually. A friend has that nasty replica and I tell ya it's totally the wrong shape and too long. The mouth is in the wrong place too wide , the brow is rounded and has no point to it. The back is completely rounded with zero edge on the top and the eyes are simply wrong. It does not compare but hey if you like your"RECAST" prop that's all that counts. ;)

With your eye for detail I can hardly wait to see your finish work. :lol
Seriously though, I guess they are both domes with rectangle eyes and 3 holes for a mouth. If that's what you're basing it on then they are identical to each other. But I am certain that the "fairly talented" members of this board can see many more not so subtle differences with these 2 helmets.

Don't forget to start your own thread when your helmet is finished.:unsure

RECAST...this true and I do commend your work, but I did say SIMILAR not THE SAME :) which implies differences in the two. As for my resin recast of a mask, I do like it but I'll like it a lot better when it's finished.
 
Seriously please stop. I gave you a hint it's a
R E C A S T
Helmet your talking about that kind of thing does not fly too well in prop community. This is a scratch built helmet has absolutely zero to do with that pos you bought please stop bringing it up. :angry

I guess I touched on a sensitive subject with my recasted mask but I see your eye for detail didn't catch the word "similar" in my comment because that's what I said, not "the same" or "identical". I know there are differences in craftsmanship of the masks and I can also see that I'm out numbered here so I leave this thread to the favorited majority. Good day to all
