SO I decide to get my good camera out and it only had enough juice to take ONE photo... so I'll get more later. I'm just really, really pleased at how well he came out.
I found a great deal on a vintage Decimator helmet and using a Retaliation Firefly body was able to come up with a pretty nice looking version. The only thing I do not like it the yellow, I haven't found any good flat yellow yet, so I might have to make my own mixing orange and white. We'll see how that goes.

Just try and find a mate varnish this way you avoid the repaint. I planned on this this a few years back but never liked how the helmet looked on the bodies, just looked to out of proportion. I guess it was a matter of parts. This one looks good. Wish I hadn't sold my ARAH helmet now.

What he said,or add rubbing alcohol with your gloss paint. Makes it dry flat.
