ATA ABS HELMET NEED OPINION ON EARS

[Rich17nwc1]

I am wondering what everyone thinks about this ear placement. Does it look right? I know I still need to sand them and make them smoother, but I just want your opinion.

 

Thanks

Rich

I guess I need to figure out how to attach photos with photobucket, doesn't seem to want to link the file.

Let me help you out!

 

Actually, the ear is pretty good! Just take some sand paper and make the curve a little smoother

She's right!

Looks ok.

Got the other ear on, not perfect, but it can get re-worked later. Let me see if I can get the photos posted.

I think both of your ears look really good. It is hard to tell from the images, but is your right ear a little bit thicker than your left? As far as getting the ears to fit snug on the cheeks it looks great- if you look at the screen shots almost every helmet in the movies has gaps near the edges, so having a few small gaps isn't terrible (and is actually screen-accurate!)

Hey it's James I like the wonky gaps! Looke at the STS (stop that ship) or any of the other screen used and there are worse! Mine are way worse than you're and I love them every little nook and cranny!

[Rich17nwc1]

Yes the right ear is thicker, I will have to trim the ear cover down 3-5 mm to be equal to the left, that should thin out the lower half. helps to have extra sets of eyes and to walk away for a few hours.

You're doing a nice job. Keep it up!
