Hi guys, just playing around and thought i'd try to show ya a helmet I did a while back. It's suppose to be a leather flying helmet, with flying goggles (one lense smashed) and the guy races touring cars and has a huge mostache so did one flowing over the helmet. (hope this werks)

thanx Henry, for your kind words, maybe some "rich" guy will get us all together to "play" heheh..
Mike, I got my referance from this bike getting around a guy did heheheheh not really (just had to say that) I actually had a real leather flying helmet to go by and also real goggles. I've E.mailed you the front shots as they arnt on my site. Each stitch on the helmet had three colours, and did the leather look by using several techniques, main one being spraying paint into the palm of my hand and patting it on the helmet leaving a leather look. technology at its best heheheh. As far as that little chrome loop. yeah its painted too...would I lie to you (not really mate, its a real one! just yanking ya chain
Cheers mate!

That's awesome! We just bought an airbrush set up for our shop and I can only hope to be half as good as you are someday. Keep up the good work and keep sharing!

I thought I was talented with an airbrush 'til I started checking out this forum. That's some beautiful work! If ya don't mind me asking, what did you get for it and how long did it take you to do that?

G'day. Well I got $650 for this helmet, funny thing is I have just redone the front of this helmet as the guy didnt like the mostache. (didnt look like his, go figger!) Guess it would of been easier if I had a pic of his to go by , any way Its been redone and probably looks better than the first time. (yes he is paying for alterations)This time there are lips on the front and the mostache curls up more, and colour is more greys. I'll post pics when I have some
Cheers!
