Nice little build , really didn’t want to weather the mask up after I used a whole bottle of Alclad Chrome , so a very light wash is all I did
 
OMG, that is stunning! That is exactly the way I'd want to build one too!

Any chance you might be willing to share your build process? So inspiring; it looks flawless!
 
Hi thank you so much it's my first Predator build normally I do Star Wars but the way things are going there I'm switching to Predator props

1st step was cleaning the print up which wasn't to bad then gloss black until I was happy with the reflectivity probably 4 coats
2nd step was Alclad Chrome through the Airbrush (first pic) man looked so good I was going to leave it there and go for a first built look
3rd step weathering not my strong point basically I used wated based paint just a little mixed with a lot of water I dabbed it on with paper towel the dabbed it off with a wet piece I used black and 2 shades of brown . I never applied much at a time as I didn't want it heavily weathered .
4th step was some mesh from a old kitchen strainer that I painted matt black lense is just clear plastic that I painted silver you can't see through it

If you don't have a airbrush just use silver metallic paint it will be similar to the Alclad .

It's not accurate at all to the Screen used I tried many times to recreate the bullet marks on the orig helmet there are 2 main ones and it just looked terrible so I went for my own version .
 
That looks really good.

This chromed version look more like the cleaned P1 mask that they had in the glasscase in "The Predator".

Is it printed in resin?

What is the source for this 3D print?
 
Hi it was from a seller on ebay in Australia $80 inc stand it was a raw print . And yes totally I just watched that scene in The Predator dang it should of left it alone lol
 
I've just purchased the Fugitive Predator bio from the same seller I'll post my progress if there's some interest looks like a challenging paint up lots of different shades of silver , gun metal , bronze and gold happening should be interesting .

My friend has the Prime 1-1 bust (very jealous) so I have great reference for the mask looks to be a few slightly different versions not counting the damaged one must be a mix of stunt and heroes
