I admire your skills ArtFunk. Top Job!
I just have watched TRON Legacy 3D last weekend - well designed and nice 3D effects, too.

I made ​​the latest in changes, unfortunately, am accurate
I have corrected the curve that rises high behind the rear, I lifted the top line Tail, those highlighted in red, now I understand if I bring back more than the orange line, and if even higher than the hump, highlighted in blue.

Hey man,

I was looking through your thread and thought about a way you could pull this off pretty slick.

Make yourself a mold with an inside plug to take up some head space, then cast it in a clear resin (smooth-on makes a nice optical clear). Unfortunately I can't find a clear that sets up fast enough to slush cast...

Then once you pull the piece, use a bit of this on it:
Amazon.com: VHT Nite Shades - Black Out Taillight Spray & Clear Coat Bundle: Automotive

and mount your leds on the backside.. Mask off an area inside to see through and then paint the INTERIOR with opaque black.

After a few coats of the VHT, put on a nice several coats of clear and then polish to a shine!

Just an idea! It's looking great. Very inspirational.

Good luck.

If you do a master of this you should should sell some copies, I'd likely buy one (as long as it is reasonably priced, I find a lot of prop sellers are a bit ridonkulous with asking prices whereas others share the love of this community and do it reasonably), anyway I find you work on this helmet absolutely inspiring!

Of course, the copies will be available for sale, I should be able to make the first copies by the end of the month.
I do it with passion, but I can not overlook all the work behind it, also because this helmet with a visor and requires time and cost vary according to this.
However I have not an idea of price before I finish it then I will tell you.

Looks very nice. Will look sharp once painted and lit up

Really awesome so far!

I have yet to see any other Rinzler helmet that is as detailed and screen accurate, even at this stage of development...

i'm lil bit curious..are you will be use some dark tinted visor to make it visible when weared?if you do,it must be quite dark to be similar with the original helmet :lol cmiiw

and what about the lighting?are you planning to use some orange LEDs or something like that?

the visor is dark but with almost 100% visibility, and the helmet is of course black. The blue LED will be orange, like in the movie, with the ability to turn a color or the other.
