Its been a long road. Seventeen months, countless hours, multiple dead ends, hundreds of lessons learned, and one helmet made. In the past two installments I’ve discussed sculpting, resin casting, chroming and vacuum forming. This is where the magic happens though… Illumination.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing this. I’ve enjoyed seeing projects from people building their own, but never realized there was a whole progression in the form of the helmets.
