Good day everyone...

I finally put the mohawk and I'm quite satisfied with the result.

First I draw the mohawk outline on top of the helm... then I cut strips of 2mm craft foam...

I used the foam strips as a dam to keep the bondo on the right location and thickness... I attached the foam to the helm using double-sided adhesive tape...

Bondo applied...

And sanded...

Then I peeled off the foam strip dam...

And here is the result... Pretty neat huh!thumbsup

I pencil-marked the groove lines for the mohawk and all other detail lines on the whole helm...

And engrave all the detail lines using small file...

Made the 2 arcs at the back of the helm....

Again I only used 60 grit sandpaper from the start to now...

I will now proceed to make the cheek details...:thumbsup

Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated...

Thanks for watching and for your time... cheers everyone!
