Finally I got the Faceplate hinge installed...:thumbsup (Sorry picture heavy)
Staying true to our target movie accuracy (99%), I paid close attention to the position of the Faceplate and Jaw from my reference screen caps...
Helmet has a wide opening when faceplate goes up and jaw goes down...
My "perfectionist" brother test fitting the helmet...
In normal head position, you can see without any obstructions...
No need to tilt head up just to have a clear view...:thumbsup
You can still see forward even if you bow your head a little...
Here you can see the push rod for the Jaw actuation...
Our push rod was made to look a lot like the movie helm's push rod... :thumbsup
Not sure if I met my "perfectionist" brother's expectation...:unsure
Til he gave me the HAND (of appreciation... LOL:lol)
And a 2-thumbs up...thumbsup
And a BIG ear-to-ear SMILE... ahahaha!
Click below photo for the demo video of our Faceplate & Jaw Manual Hinge System...
Only few steps left to achieve my ultimate goal...:thumbsup
Thanks for watching and for your time...
cheers!
P.S. Next update will be more exciting...:love

Hi Ciano930!
i love all your photo's and i learn allot from you.
Can you please explane a little more about your hinge system of the faceplate and jaw?
i would like to see a top view when the faceplate is half open.. does the helmet have on the top left and top right a open slot where the arm extends from the helmet?
or did you made it like this:
other question... how did you create the screw in the helmet? are they real?
thanks alot, you does a great job and i hope you continue uploading photos cause its helping me alot.
(i am a newbie and hav'nt start yet.. but i would like to try it soon)

Awesome Work !
Any update on your new mold for the helm?
PM me how much and how do I order the see thru LED eyes,,,, can't wait to have one..
I'm from Quezon City....
Nice !!
Cant wait for the package to arrive nice product
Sooooo beautiful!
Geez...you're good can you help also to make one of a kind helmet...like yours can you give what materials and proper scaling and measure that you used.
I would also like to know the exact materials used. Resin bondo primer and so on? Thanks and the best looking helmet I have seen yet!
Will you offer a run of this helmet?
@pRoJectEarth7 may i ask what scale did you use in your pep?? i'm having a hard time getting the right scale for me, got 22" headsize... already did 2 full helm, 1 size tester and duct tape dummy head... still can get the right size :sick
if you're using the sharkmark helmet
go with 238mm high
That should work.
You'll probably have enough room for hinges as well if you do it right.
good luck
:thumbsup
@stealth
using 238h i'll get a scale of 0.908112 thanks!
gonna try it, but 1st i'll finish my wm hd helm
WOW! Just WOW!
You've done a great job on this helmet. I seriously want one. But with current funds I'll have to stick to my WIP bad cardboard one for now I guess.
I can't put to words on how amazing your build has turned out. truley inspiring. My only question is when can we expect to see you make a go at the mark VIII. There i said it. Thanx GM
Awesome work man!!
Can you PM me will a price for the eyes? I am quite interested. They are AMAZING!!
can you get your ears in easily? I find that the problem with a lot of tight helmets is that they cannot fit over the ears easily and I have to push my ears so that they conform to the sides of the head first before any helmet will go on.
This work is crazy! So COOL!
Do you have any close up pics of how the upper hinge works?
Wow. I'm just blown away. I'm completely speechless on how amazing this is. Great job man.

I read through your entire post before starting my helm build and was certainly impressed by what you had done. I'm finished with my fiberglass build but need to install LEDs in the eyes and motorize. From the pics you posted of the new see through lenses with the lines scribed I can't tell where the LEDs are. Could you tell me what kind they are, how many you used and how they are attached to the black border? Also, did you use just one scribed lens and one amber lens on the back side of each eye?
