@roadkill



thanks for the comment...



but i've already disposed/trashed it,because of non-symmetrical issues...hehe...

this is what i've got so far.... for an update...Done!

the sheath or sleeves of katana is made up of illustration board,reinforced with fiberglass...

also the hand guard is made of cardboard,five layers of cardboard...hehe

wish you like it....

 

[Road Kill]

Oh, but it looked good, that sucks that you had to trash it

 

[le yo ra]

don't be sad ,the next helm is going to be better...see the pepped one,no issues yet,maybe after fiberglassing,hehe...

 

[Road Kill]

like Hayabusa?

 

[le yo ra]

well.... slowly.... and dedicated to finish what i've started, but still a long road ahead..... my update....

i made another helm by skupilkinson, and didn't put any details on the crown, the mouth pice is detachable, but i stick it with mighty bond( Super glue)... .
this second helmet weigh half as the first one that i made....
i hope this is done by December.... coz, small projects(comissioned) is getting along ...

thanks for the comments guys... don't worry hyperballistic, like i've said, slowly .... slowly... LOL! wish i got budget for this, LOL


Swift, i used templates, or any cut out boards/paper so that you will not over spray paints, the gauntlet alone, took me 2 days to paint, like i've said slowly... slowly ... and lots of patience .... LOL.... spray one at a time..... let first coat dries for about 2-3 hours, then spray again.....

here is another update: chest and back

stomach plate will be added soon...

enjoy these hobby......

[SpartanT117]

Your pic is not showing, but if I understand your question correctly your asking if the back flap of the helmet, is it normal to cut that area down, I had to cut mine down a few inches so I could turn my head so its normal to cut it

 

[Road Kill]

great work man =D it's been a while since i posted here and seems like you have a lot more progress done since last time
keep it up man
