No worries it didn't come off that way, i just wanted to clarify any misinformationI apologize if my comment seemed overly negative, but the mask is looking awesome! I can't wait to see it completed!

Interesting— are you sure it's two tone vader/opera mask style and not just the nature of the color shifting paint with certain highlights/shadows on parts of the helmet? In other scenes with less dramatic lighting, the parts that should look purple from the photos above look green, with different parts of the helmet looking purple.Just want to note that I would only be slightly dusting the 'purple fog' over the back edges of the helmet and ears,
I also notice there is a 2 tone Vader style use of the purple paint on the sides of the helmet
Thx, if I had access to accurate automotive chameleon paint, then I would just do the whole thing one color, but I think I'll do a base coat of green&teal, and a light dust of teal&purple on the sides resembling the 4th image you providedInteresting— are you sure it's two tone vader/opera mask style and not just the nature of the color shifting paint with certain highlights/shadows on parts of the helmet?

I got an estimate for $600-$700. I chose a local place, so I wouldn't have to pay for shipping, so other places may have lower prices, but that's what I got.Here is a free version of the file. You could have it printed through one of those 3D printing services. Can't imagine it would cost more than the X-coser mask. Green Goblin Helmet by TMBort
$600 for a raw print? TJackFX sells resin castings of the DO3D file with the backplate and mirrored gold lenses for $200. I wouldn't even pay $1000 for a fully finished one. You can get finished ones for much less than that.I got an estimate for $600-$700. I chose a local place, so I wouldn't have to pay for shipping, so other places may have lower prices, but that's what I got.
(Note, this estimate included a "bottom-back" piece from another model, because it wasn't included in this one, and the estimate for the other model was $1,000+. Apparently it's more expensive to print the entire front of the helmet in one piece, instead of four)
So yeah, UtanteV27's plan may very well be the most cost effective way to make a high quality Green Goblin helmet. If you want to go even cheaper, you may have to go the cardboard or EVA foam route.
Inspecting the eye sockets I noticed that even though I had fixed the side profile, the interior of the sockets gets really thick around the sides, bending the lenses so that from the front it's a circle and from the sides it's more oval, I have already started the right socketIts getting alot better but theres still something about that eye shape
Thank you! I do not have these actuallyI'm sure you already have these, but just in case you don't here are pretty close to straight on side and front shots of one of the prototypes. (The tip of the nose seems to be the biggest difference I can quickly spot)
Love seeing this project updated each day and can't wait to see it finished!
