been a long time comming, original plans for this fell through, so i decided to undertake the task myself, i figured seeing as i painted the armour i could certainly manage it, my first ever helmet build, lots of time spent on the pepakura parts, sand, fill, prime, sand, fill, prime, sand and so on and so forth until they had a finish like a moulded part.:
ive spent 2 weeks on this, maybe real time has been 5 solid days from parts to end pics
1x m1 helmet with liner, camo cover and band: £30
2x headphone sockets and 5mm lengh of ali: £6.50 - slit with a dremel to create the mic grooves
1x resin camera £20 delivered
1x pentax lens £20 delivered
1x spat ir sensor £40
Pepakura files for the:
strikeplate, rear lobster plates, and all the ear sections
already had the humbrols, fibreglass resin, milliput, p38, wet and dry so it was a simple build, had zero headaches making it, everything sits where it should when worn. i will say hacking the helmet was fun - dremel was definetly needed
:)so some pics now its done:
