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

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

It will probably end up with a custom paint job.SlvrCrest wrote:What are you going to do with the TZA then?beskaryc kyram wrote: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.

Re: Adam's RC
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.

Re: Adam's RC
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 wrote:Actually, you've taken a little too much off the top. You were supposed to stop at the red lines.

Re: Adam's RC
Don't forget to put the speaker fabric behind those vents after you paint your helmet

Re: Adam's RC
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.

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

Hey, it's those poorly trained Vau RC's that saved your kids' shebs during that mission to the Corellian-Perlemian IntersectionKal wrote:Will be good to troop with my kids in place of those poorly trained Vau RC's.
It's looking really good, Adam. Can't wait to see it all together
