Re: IRON PATRIOT HELMET (99.9% movie accurate lol) :)

I have one of these and I'm ready to paint for Halloween.


Looking for advice on what colors people are using. I've seen "Duplicolor" a few times in this thread but I don't see that at my local Home Depot (mostly all Rustoleum). Any shade numbers or color names would be appreciated too.

BTW the helmet is just great.

I use Dupicolor Patriot Blue Met, Silver Met and Inferno Red Met. You can buy it at any of these places Dupli-Color :: Where to Buy

PM me if you need any help. And thanks :)

Auto parts stores! Never thought of that. Thanks for the link.

BTW folks, don't kill yourselves trying to pep one of these helmets before Halloween. You want your helmet to be perfect since that's where most people are looking and these are just awesome.

BG how do you get those detailed black lines in your helmet? You say "inked", but I'm lost.
 
Re: IRON PATRIOT HELMET **Get one before Halloween**

Well I normally do the base colours for the whole helmet, then take an acrylic ink, I use dark blue for the IP and just paint in the lines on the helmet. Once it s dry I just clear over the whole thing :)
