Are all Bio Helmet cast resin? Are any vacuformed?
I was wanting to make one and what I would use is steel or aluminum. Given my skill level and resources metal would be much easier for me right now. I read Uratz excellent tutorial on sculpting one and I have done some small parts casting so I know if I made a metal helmet the I could eventuall reproduce it. Basically, I just wanted to know if anyone has had good results or even tried metal.
I know I'm might have scaling issues and I just read a thread Josh M. asking for help on size.

Still, should I get a Bio Helmet to ensure correct propotions and size? I'm starting out with nothing but pictures. Not to say I won't be close, but if I'm going to put the effort in I might as wll be able to fit over good masks, right?
I don't want to go askin' stupid questions on one of my first posts, so any help is appriciated.
Thanks,
Shawn
