DarthVeach Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 I have actually already sold this helmet, but I figured I'd post photos anyway. All details hand painted just like the originals! Quote
TK_LEPER Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) That's a nice looking lid! Ah the one's that got away! Edited August 10, 2011 by TK 4702 Quote
DarthVeach Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Posted August 11, 2011 Yeah, it sucks because I am looking for a job right now so I had to sell off some stuff, but I will get another soon enough! Quote
TK_LEPER Posted August 15, 2011 Report Posted August 15, 2011 Yeah, I hear ya! I had to sell four of my helmets in the lest few Months, in order to help pay some hefty medical bills. You gotta do what you gotta do! You know? BTW, what did you do for the paint chips? Mask it off? If so, with what? Jess Quote
DarthVeach Posted August 18, 2011 Author Report Posted August 18, 2011 @ TK 4702 - Yep I used masking fluid. Not my idea by a longshot! The talented people here and over at The Dented Helmet had threads talking about using masking fluid for their projects. I had never heard of this but did a little reading and it is cool stuff! It is basically a thin liquid latex that you paint on, let dry and then spray your top coat over it. When that is dry, you peel off the little chips and presto - instant weathering! Quote
