Added some more WIP images in a gallery. Here is the link again:





Again, I will continue adding more images to the same gallery as I make more progress.

Interested.

Are you going to be doing a version that doesn't have the hose, like seen in game? To be clear, I'd be interested in both set ups, with and without the hose.
 
Re: New v2.0 NCR Veteran Ranger Helmet Raw Cast - Plus Accessories - Taking Orders No

All the hoses will be removable via quick disconnects so you can wear them with your preference. I am also working on a fan kit to fit in the gas canister that will help extract heat from the helmet.

Sounds good. Definitely interested, will be in touch soon. :)

Just so everyone knows, and it may seem like common sense to some of you but not everyone has knowledge of these things, The helmet does have a series of hoses on it but they were not represented in detail and 3 dimension in the game. So it looks like the in-game helmet doesn't have hoses but this was just a limitation of the game itself. It was done to reduce poly count on the models and to prevent intersecting meshes. I know that even though the character has these hoses some of you may prefer to wear the helmets without them in order to make it easier or more mobile. That is your preference and you will have that choice. You can get the raw cast kit with or without the accessory kit and, even though the finished helmets will include the hoses, you will have the option not to wear the hoses.

Just a tid-bit of extra info... some of the hoses were represented in 2D as they were drawn on the surface of the mask in the game... You may have noticed the strange black marks and wondered what they are. However, I am not sure why some were added and others were not.

I circled one of them in the picture below and there is another under the gas canister that is harder to see. Even on the other side they skewed the big hose on the cheek up onto the ear pod... not sure why they did that either. I think these don't look like they belong and they should have done away with them altogether (in the game) if they weren't going to be 3D. ;)

Ok, so I decided to model the gas canister and hose adapter and have those 3D printed. My goal is to make this the most accurate NCR helmet on the internet. Check out the models:

Here is a video of the gas canister:

On a side note I had some 2x3 NCR flags made up. Let me know if any of you are interested in those as well. I will get pictures of the flags when I get a chance.

I have been working hard to finish up all the details. I got the 3D printed gas canister and hose adapter in and got those parts finished up. Here is a link to the full gallery of WIP pictures.

I wanted to get some opinions on whether or not I should add the battle damage into the original (like I did with the 1st gen helmet) or if I should leave is smooth so that everyone can create their own unique battle damage before painting the cast. Any opinions?

Are you still taking orders for the V2 helm?

Are you still taking orders for the V2 helm?

Yes I am. It is almost done and ready to mold. Maybe one more week and then I will start filling the orders from here, FB, and Etsy.

Send me a PM with your info if you want to get in on it and if you have an opinion on the battle damage question I am all ears. ;)

Well. I have nearly finished the new 2nd Gen helmet ... it won't be much longer before I am making molds. I also decided to make a mold of the smooth helmet and then another mold of a helmet with screen accurate battle damage. So I will be able to offer it both ways. Take a look at the latest WIP images:

I have finished several helmets at this point and I have updated some images on the first post. I will be posting a demo video and a full tutorial on assembly as soon as I get a chance. I will be filming this weekend.
