  4. So Dan, the issue you are having is called paint fry, and there are a few reasons why this could have happened. 1. You got a bad batch of paint, yeah sometimes that happens. 2. The undercoat was still de-gassing when you applied the top coat and caused the reaction to occur. Even if you leave it a few days this can still occur with some paints and the de-gassing process changes time with ambient temperature. 3. it is simply a reaction between the top coat and undercoat or undercoat and primer when the top coat was applied. Unfortunately the only way to fully fix it is to strip the helmet back and re start the process. you could try and sand it back lightly then hit it with the old wet n dry and try and reapply the top coat in the hopes it doesn't Fry again. Its just a minor set back so push on as this will be a spectacular helmet once completed.

  7. 100% agree on the Tino completion kit, they are the perfect addition to the Doopy’s and take it so much closer to the screen used look Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. Wow some of the feedback is great if you wish to go for Centurion lvl, so if you can take that on board and come out on top which I am positive you can then that’s awesome. The calf is a must fix from basic some of the other suggestions are not, Ball is in your court but I’m hoping you go for the top. Good luck and hope to see you at Centurion in the near future.

  16. You are absolutely correct with the left ear angle on the AP, it will not follow the line/angle of the trap, but the right ear does. (left and right as you are looking at the helmet) I managed to get the height almost identical on mine and the 2 other AP kits I have built, but in saying that I had aligned them early on in the construction. If you are not 100% confident that you can get the holes right, it is not worth risking the potential damage on something that is not CRL enforced. I agree with Joseph that you can counter sink the lower screw more as it does appear to protrude quite a bit. Great work on the build Mark.
