/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Man of taste.
I actually made the helmet a few days ago for my uni's prom, though I had to rush the work since I started making it a bit too late and did it in about a week, it was also my first time doing a helmet.

For the helmet main part I did this :
1) CATIA model that I exported to STL format
2) Papercraft with peparuka
3) Glass Fibered it 3 time inside
4) Applied putty on the outside 1 rought, 1 finish (should have done more tho) then sanding
5) Sprayed it with primer then painted

For the tranparent parts I casted epoxy in papercraft moulds, the result is somewhat shit but with sanding up to 5000 I could somewhat see. Then for the seemingly opaque visors I applied a one-way black tinted mirror film (I only had this at the time, I would recommend using car film, it bends better with heat).

Then I hotglued everything and added a flexible neon.

I plan to make a full cosplay with a new helmet made right this time during summer.
