Looks much better.
… I prefer the top one better, more interesting to look at. I do like what you did with your other helmets though, your great helm looks sick.
Top is after, bottom is before, right?
Absolutely not. You’re kidding right?
So you just hit it with silver spray paint then? Top one looks nice
I gave it a base coat of textured paint, used acrylics and different weathering techniques to give it more texture and depth. Added a rust effect as well. The rust color is a little off from how it normally looks.
Might just be the fact it’s plastic.
Used the same techniques on this one as my other helmets and projects.

I like the grimdark aesthetic so that’s normally what I go for.
You seem to be good at this, it has to be the plastic.
Yeah. Might need to add more “grime” to it.
These are plastic and they came out great.
Hmm
OH MY GOD YOU’RE THAT GUY 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I disagree. Top looks tacky and costumey. I like the bottom more
I will agree it needs a touch more work tho. Needs a bit more “grime” and dirt. Darken up the low spots a bit more.
That’s what threw me off at first, the bottom is very nice. I think some grime and darkness in places, maybe even corrosion would give it some life. It looks too “new” you know? Almost like a 3d model. I think if you could make the raised portions more defined (with shadows via airbrushing, doesn’t need to be a physical change) it would make the helmet more defined. If you haven’t seen that one Mythbuster detail models, I highly recommend giving Adam Savage’s YouTube channel a watch!
