SimpleJedi Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Got my EPIC Jim Tripon #Shoretrooper Helmet in today. I have to say that this has lots of details and pretty much comes ready for painting. Since this is my first build I'll still go over everything with a little bit of sanding. Here are my next steps: 1- Cut out the visor and side vents2- Put on 3 light coats of flat black primer3- Lightly wet sand the whole helmet4- Put on a few coats of the Ivory Silk 5- Use a Acrylic wash to add a dirty look6- Sand a few edges for a workout look7- Finish it all with a coat of clear matt spray paint I'll keep everyone updated with my progress.If anyone has any tips and trick let me know through the process.Jim Tripon Kevin Merritt and Dexter Leonardo Enriquez Have been very very helpful.
