Done / Completed Kylo Ren Helmet From 3D model **new pic #220**

ah thats really really nice ! I really wanna try painting it up myself.. would you reveal what paint/colors you were using ?
 
That is gorgeous. Any chance of getting a helmet finishing tutorial, like the Star-Lord helmet one you did? (for those of us who are in this run)
 
Looks so screen accurate!! Amazing job yet again! Is it just black chrome/silver and grey?

Thanks :) still a bit to do on it.. trying to make it look like the celebration one..not all shiny :)
Thats beautiful. Way better than any KR paint ups done so far.

Thanks :) I'm molding them as fast as I can :)
Wow, just wow! Sweet paint work, most accurate I've seen here. Can't wait to get mine.

Well its really just black, white, silver paint so far.. I mix everything by hand/eye... and its all automotive paint.. so not sure how much help it is..

I highly doubt it..way too busy right now, and the SL one didn't seem to be used/welcomed for the amount of work/time I put into it

Here is a work in progress of my paint up :)

Is this the resin cast or the alum cold cast? This looks great so far!

Aside from the time issue I know that post was well appreciated and used. It's like the review issue. A lot of people will buy something and never review it unless there's a problem or they like doing reviews. I bet a lot of people who read that post didn't post thanks or replies but tutorials are great for newbs like me and many others.

if not a full on tutorial maybe a typed out basic tutorial? :)

so the silver on the helmet.. is it like a chrome (Shiny) or more like a matt aluminum silver tone ? Anyone knows?

So far the sources say it's a full on chrome. A very shiny silver would do with a clear coat maybe, but Chrome looks to be the right answer.

Thanks buddy.. if thats a chrome look I know what paint to use :)
 
My helmet should be finished/painted in about 4 weeks. :D:thumbsup Can't wait to finally have this bad boy in hand.
 
im hoping also to get my kit by the end of next week or so... can't wait to get this baby painted :)
 
OK so helmets are getting shipped..some getting painted.. as far as the colour for the silver.. I would say chrome is not the way to go.. if you look at the celebration photos its not chrome at all..brushed nickle maybe, there are scratches in the silver..its a fairly rough helmet with lots of browns and textures on it..its fun to paint :)
 
C you sure about the no chrome? Here is a screen grab. All the painted helmets I see are being painted in the chrome. I just want to make sure it will be 501st approved:)

I'm going from the celebration photos. Shiny doesn't mean chrome. Can you send me the 501st rules on this? I'm not up on the 501st stuff...just make stuff :) and go by what I see...which is usually pretty accurate :)
