 Post subject: Cobra Viper Assault Helmet WIP

Hey Guys-

This thread really is all about the helmet. I basically hacked up a 25th Viper mask and merged it with a 25th Airtrooper faceplate. I'll let the pics speak for themselves, then ask some questions.

Sorry the close ups are blurry. As you can see, the seam where the 2 helmets were bashed together has been patched with material and will need to be painted. Here are some of my thoughts- feedback would be greatly appreciated!

1. Should anything more be added to the helmet? I was thinking maybe of extending the visor, giving a Star Wars Scout trooper effect.

2. Should I attend an antenna?

3. Should the goggles be incorporated in some way? They are a recognizable piece of the Cobra Viper.

4. If this turns out well, would someone out there be able to cast a few of these? I've got quite a few Vipers that I would prefer to have this mask over the generic viper helmet.

Thanks guys!

Very cool.
I'd like to see the mask and helmet seperation closed, but still a cool idea.
