"Mr no stripes" - SDS helmet repaint


Recommended Posts

I have recently bought a SDS helmet, but it was yellowed a lot by the sun...

 

I have disassembled it to try to make a more screen used paint scheme with hand painted details on a gloss spray painted surface.

Before the white gloss spray paint, I have painted with a green/khaki color to be near the HDPE appearance, the more closer color I have found was "green olivier".

 

No so bad, but it was just an under couch, if the color not matched at 100% it was not a big problem ^^

Rebuilt with the unpainted abs white ears.

After some troubles with the white paint (not very glossy after my first coats), this is the final result.

The next step was the painting of the details, it was not so easy !!

 

After selecting the good colors (thanks to the people who helped me), I have firstly painted the black parts and the teeth.

And this is the final result ! ^^

I'm happy to have made this unusual "Mr no stripes"!

 

Think different, think no stripes ! ^^
