I got it from my local mitre 10, figured it was worth a shot to use as it was Rustoleum and have seen a lot of people use ot on their builds.
Oh oh oh exciting!! Can't wait for BIg brown box day lol.

Laid down another coat on the helmet this evening. Starting to look the piece now. Will give it a light wet sand tomorrow and see if I'm happy for a final coat or not.

WOW SlyClone, that is nice white and glossy
Doomsday and Armageddon got together and had a baby and man is it ugly.

Re: Slyclone's various builds thread
i took the photos whilst it was wet still so it's not quite that glossy still, though I'd like it to be.

Re: Slyclone's various builds thread
Afternoon all, found some time to do some work on v2 of my ARF helmet. The main part of the helmet is completed and now I need to do the visor and then onto the resin.

Visor done. Need to sort one or two symmetry issues and then start strengthening the visor and interior of helmet plus make the greebles.
