Best Iron Man helmets out there!

How is the open faceplate version coming along?

Definitely agreed - one of the best looking masks out there.

Keep me informed... definitely interested!
 
Re: Some Recent works on Iron Man replica

As promised here are some pics. Sorry they’re not the best; my wife has the good camera with her so I had to use the spare. As CSMacLaren suggested I took them from about 6 feet back. While I don’t think these pics really do this helmet justice I hope they give other’s a less distorted view and shows how amazing it truly is. The pics Leslee took on page three of this thread really shows off the finish and I must admit it even looks better in person. My camera skills need a little work. I threw in a comparison shot with a fettster’s face plate that I’m still working on. As you can see Leslee’s version is a bit slimmer, which I personally prefer but I’ve never seen a full fettster’s helmet so I can’t comment on overall appearance. Leslee’s version overall is what I had imagined a real helmet to look like. Of course it could be a tad bit bigger but that’s not a complaint I love absolutely love this helmet. Everyone I’ve showed it to thinks it’s awesome. I would love to see this next to TMP’s latest and slimmer version although I know I’m a bit too big to fit into that suite.

I’m constantly amazed at the talent of the people on this forum and Leslee in another great example. I can’t wait to see … and own ;) the open faceplate version as well as the progress on the suite.

Keep up the great work and Thanks Again!

Believe it or not, those 6 foot shots - even though you say they don't do the helmet justice - basically sold me. Many RPFers have done excellent work, but it's hard to see inaccuracies in the sculpt due to lens distortion. These four shots here show the mask has the right proportions and nuances, so having the Sideshow really helps.

Can you post some 6 foot+ side by side with the Sideshow looking directly into the camera?

I love your work, dude! I am going to have to save up for at least one of your helmets! Would love to have a full suit though...

I will be eagerly awaiting to see what the full suit looks like with the opening face :)
 
Re: Some Recent works on Iron Man replica SUIT UPDATE PAGE 15

Finally all that u hav been waiting for :

Re-size the new helmet , compare to my old helmet phototype , Im very happy for this new size , not too big , but suit all head .

Cut out the face-plate , re-work on the line to make it look more perfect , and molding of 3 separate peices.

Now , im still scretching my head to find some thing to make it slide up , i try to put in 3 peices of magnet to click on , but not so accurate . I want to make the best accurate version :

Looks Great Leslee! I love the size compared to your previous version. Once you figure out how to make it slide up ... which I know you will send it my way :love My son keeps asking me when I'm going to get a helmet for him :lol

There was a member here who made a Iron Man helmet that had a faceplate that hinged open.

Did I miss the sale thread on these?
I don't care if it slides, hinges or sticks on with magnets. It's awesome!

These are the best fanmade IM helmets i have ever seen, they even have the best finishing too. you nailed the gold color on the mkIII

well done:thumbsup
 
Re: Some Recent works on Iron Man replica : NEW OPEN FACE-PLATE VERSION HELMET PG. 17

If I'm not mistaken I remember a pic where the chin part flips down then the face plate opens. are you doing that also? you could try those brass slider hinges from the hardware store.
