Red 5 X Wing Pilot Helmet

HB1098S said:
Danny - I purchased the helmet "kit" from "Walter" - his RPF screen name - during his run last year. t consisted of the one piece fiberglass helmet, vac formed lenses & chin strap cup, chin strap elastic, and a 3D printed mic tip aluminum mic arm. The Imperial Boots helmet liner is a kit which consists of the leather ear pads, helmet liner with ear hoops, and a large top pad. The top pad and ear pads velcro into the liner once it's glued into the helmet. I'll use my friends decal art printed on water slide paper for the logos and hand paint the red, black, yellow, and grey. Thanks for the props!

Thanks for the info, I really can’t wait to see what you do with this

You plan on weathering the hell out of it? U going with a ANH design or a ESB?

I'll let her dry and start masking for my black sections!
 
That looks great!! I have barely any funds right now, so I’ve been that little devil on my friends shoulder having him buy all these projects for me to do for him

Trying to get him to jump on this helmet, every time you update I’m hooked more and more!

So curious how you do the side decals and pin strips! That part makes me nervous

I gave up on painting this helmet and picked up an RS Props Red 5. RS accidentally sent me Red 4, so when I received Red 5 and paperwork to ship back Red 4 I took a few pics of both helmets

That's good will power not to keep them both!

Out of interest, can you take some front and side photos of the RS next to the fibreglass one for a size comparison please? Interested how close they are.

Since they're made of different materials and construction, does WaltersW feel more solid than the RS?

Walter's helmet feels more real as far as weight goes, almost the same size. Walter's is slightly larger
