As Steve asked me if I could knock something together for his SD badge I've roughed out a new lid

Posted Image

not the easiest of things to do from scratch...As Usual I've gone for a low tech rough card prototype that will have filler on top and back filled with a bit of Hot glue to keep it strong, Looks rough as a badgers rear end right now but as I said it'll have filler or as it needs to be done quickley probably polyfiller as it's easy to sand and is quite strong if you keep it about 3 -4mm thick... Hoping to have it done ,no promises as I only have about 4 hours free each week now> Will post up new pics when it comes to shaping it.

Looks great so far Martin as Steve said the shape of the helmet is a difficult one with a mixture of various different shapes mixed into one. Looking forward to seeing more pics as the build progresses :-) Im going to start on my Brit Cit judge costume (finally) once i've finished my Dredd 2012 costume build so will be building a new lid also :-)
