Update: i got some early presents...

woodchuck Deece:


And a PA bucket:

[jhart06]

Not bad man! I'm just confused, did something happen to the bucket you got from TZA or summat?

[beskaryc kyram]

my main issue with the TZA bucket is it is just so big, i honestly think the only person it fits is Zod. The PA helmet has a lot better detail too.

[jhart06]

I see. Well glad you found a solution in the end! And that one of us finally got their kit ironed out.

What are you going to do with the TZA then?

It will probably end up with a custom paint job.

[beskaryc kyram]

I cut out the vents today.


i will probably go back with the dremal and take some more off the top area.



Tools of the trade:

[Jaster]

Actually, you've taken a little too much off the top. You were supposed to stop at the red lines.



A little epoxy putty can fix that.

Oh, I looked at Foo's helmet at the lumber jacks game for reference, and I thought it went all the way to the top and bottom.

[Jaster]

Don't forget to put the speaker fabric behind those vents after you paint your helmet

[Keanu]

A good filler to use other than the standard bondo is called pc11 marine epoxy. I found that ace carriers and its got a lot more give than bondo does and doesn't chip as much either. Takes a little more standing but I think its worth it for the finished product.

[beskaryc kyram]

Put a coat of black on the helmet today before having to head to school.

[Ducktrooper]

looks good!

[beskaryc kyram]

Took the tape off.

[DarthFOO]

Looks good Ner Vod. Did mine the same way.

[Kal]

Will be good to troop with my kids in place of those poorly trained Vau RC's.

[Wags]

Looks very nice man!!

[Jaster]

Hey, it's those poorly trained Vau RC's that saved your kids' shebs during that mission to the Corellian-Perlemian Intersection


It's looking really good, Adam. Can't wait to see it all together

[beskaryc kyram]

some weathering

[Jaster]

Get some dirt on that thing and you'll be all set. Looking great, ner vod.
