Needs some weatherization, but otherwise looks great.

Pretty sick! Are you trying to make a cosplay, or just a helmet for display?

u/agdnprints 2d ago
I sell most of my prints, this was just a cool helmet I wanted to try out, and it’s my favorite one yet

Pretty cool you need to scuff it up a little to make it look real .
Just leave it outside for a month or two

u/agdnprints 1d ago
😂 it would break down and be garbage lol. Pla can’t stay outside, and I live in Florida so would be even worse

I honestly think it looks great as is. But would like to see both a new and weathered one

u/agdnprints 1d ago
Yea it would look cool weathered, I just don’t know how to do that nor do I have anywhere to do it. I print everything out of my apartment

You should check Adam Savage's YouTube channel, he's got some videos where he makes some props look like 'damaged'

u/agdnprints 1d ago
I’m sure I could figure all that out, I just do everything out of an apartment with carpet 😂

u/agdnprints 1d ago

I like the flat colors and stylized simplification of its contours. Looks like it could be a TF2 hat lol.

That’s pretty sweet, the proportions seem a little off tho, the visors and mouth piece seem a bit big compared to the rest
