Dev'lin's First Helmet WIP
« on: Jun 23, 2020, 12:58 PM »
Started with a Rubies 2P Jango.  Following the Dekan Korr tutorial.  Or at least trying my best to.  I plan on using T-screws instead of magnets for the visor attachment and maybe add a spotlamp. 



Having a little trouble getting this piece to form correctly.  It wants to Curl instead of being floppy when heated.

Oops.  Had a little slip with the Dremel

Everything trimmed sanded and started assembling




Also I’m being really impatient about waiting for the glue to dry

Haven’t had a whole lot of time to work on things recently. Also having some trouble getting my pics to upload on Imjur.

However, I have made a little progress. Got some bondo and sanding done. Having a little trouble getting the ear caps to stay on but I think I got it figured out. I will upload pics as soon as Imgur decides to cooperate.  Also have an idea and base for my main weapon and will start a WIP thread for that later.

Got the dome pretty much done. A few tiny spots need a tab more work but otherwise pretty smooth. Need to touch up the front where I filled in the arrows and along the visor edges still. Plan on leaving g the gap at the top of the ear cap so I can attach a spot lamp there.

I've been following the Dekan Korr tutorial I found on here.  It really helped me to get it done.  Good luck on your build V'ode

So I finally got my visor installed. I screwed up trying to drill the mounting holes and ended up attaching it with Velcro. I’m going to have to do some kind of decorative attachment towards the bottom to cover those misdrilled  holes. Still need to find and attach a small light on the side. Other than that just needs the final paint (I think)
