Yes, the Men in Red are back! Well, sorta. I did this with one of my helmet casts and some sharpies. Yes, it is a closed-visor PII helmet.

How so? You don't like the closed visor?

Otherwise, it's the exact same as Lego's PII helmet.

It looks pretty good. I think paint would be better though.

The helmet almost looks "chubbier" than the normal lego model.


Edit: I think it might be the mouth piece at the bottom.

I mean the actual visor looks a bit too small, but other than that I think it is quite good.

I think the mouth piece is too "high." But still, nice casting and sharpie job. Smile

Hmmm... the sharpies not bad, somewhat messy though, and the helmet doesn't exactly look like the TLC one. It looks a bit oversized. Wink

Reminds me of Clonefactory's clones for some reason, the helmet does. I like it, very clean sharpie job. Wink

Hopefully this will fix the helmet debate

Area circled in green is the area I think makes the helmet look off.

I know this is off-topic, but how did you make the helmet?
It looks really good.

Maybe you could try and fill in the holes with putty?

Because this doesn't work.

Apparently C&C aren't welcome.

The Sharpie's fine, in my opinion. But I agree with what BBprod said about the mouth area. Casting seems to simplify some details...

Oh, don't get me wrong. I think you did a great job of sharpieing. I just think those resin casted helmets look a little storm trooper ish.
