Thanks you so much for the information
No worries Ziffa
Thank you sweet heart. I am a great admirer of the work you guys are doing too. Which reminds me I must make sure I am subscribed to your build as not seen it in a few weeks.

Thank you man. Hopefully you will have some pics for us soon
If you have any questions while doing yours feel free to ask away.
looking forward to seeing it again!!
looks awesome just from the picture
Hopefully by the time you come round will have it all finished. I am going to do some rondoing on the insid of the chin tonight as its a little thin. Then all I have left to do is finish the under chin detail.

Thank you man.
Cheers bro
As for the mustard it's the only colour primer filler in my area but like you said it kinda grows on you. Hopefully will have pics in the next few days. Threw a little rondo on the inside of the chin last night to strengthen it as when I rotocasted it was a little thin. I wasn't sure if it would cure as it was -4 last night but both my rondo and bit of bondoing cured fine.
Now I have had a little go at rondoing I am really looking forward to the next helmets. Will be doing Masterchiefs MK VI and Ironman MK VIII side by side. Of course won't go down the foam -> cast -> recast road again.

So when we gunna get to see some bondo slapped down on your pep?
LOL! Funny you should ask. I just went out today and spent a whole bunch on supplies for that. It's been too cold to work on bondo or fiberglass the last couple of weeks, and since I don't have a garage and my shed doesn't have electricity in it yet. . . . Bondo work will come along in the future when it stays warm. The main reason for my pep work is so I can start the undersuit. I'm going to try hardening the torso and cod this week so I can start the undersuit. So stay tuned I guess.

Small update
Been smoothing the helmet and got the chin detail in now. Still need to add a screw to it then tidy up the teeth, well remove them. I am not happy with their alignment and there is that little strip along the top on the jaw that just has to go. I did have a reason for it when I started the build but changed my plans along the way.
Hope you like.
Oh and a little something to keep me busy after its done
