Rystan Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 PGHtoolman found this idea yesterday too from Ales's helmet build: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/24950-ales-anh-stunt-ata-helmet-assembly/page-2#entry314171 I incorrectly attributed this to Tim/PGHtoolman, but it was in fact Rick/StarFox2010 here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/28109-ricks-am-armor/page-3#entry356531. Sorry guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank_O_Potomus Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Random thought, could we double up the provided lens roll to make it harder to see in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwilly1986[501st] Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Random thought, could we double up the provided lens roll to make it harder to see in? I've been thinking of doing that and it might make it a little sturdier. I haven't been able to work on much been busy still need to get some acetone so I can make the paste to fix my extra holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank_O_Potomus Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Yeah the paste works great! Edited August 7, 2014 by Shank_O_Potomus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shank_O_Potomus Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Unfortunately I don't have time to work on fine details such as painting etc right now. I go back to college in about 12 days so I'm trying to get all of the major components sized and assembled first while I have the tools and space. I can worry about the rest at school.

TriumphTrooper8[501st] Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 The painting aspect had me all freaked out nervous but once you get the hang of it, it is not that bad. I did the main parts on my AM helmet and a few more gray coats then those pesky stripes/lines. Good brushes and a nice rag! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
