I am using a Zeronos template to build a OOO head.
I plan to smooth it out with gesso then paint. It is going to be Tajadoru.

Thank you once again for sharing this.

Oops...hehehe.

Needs smoothing. Than I will add the wings to the helmet.

The helmet I am working on needs a red visor and your solution with the red paint is the best one I think I have seen.

I was going to use clear .030 plastic from the hobby store and glue .010 red see-through plastic on top... but I LOVE the paint solution as it comes out very smooth looking and not brushed-on at all.

As I get closer to finishing my mask (and from this thread I am definitely going to use more foam than I was planning on) I shall post pictures. Otherwise, thank you for the tips and tricks.

Indy Mogul did some simmilair stuff with foam and referenced a guy who made a full body armor of foam.

Does anyone have those pepakuro files anymore? I have searched and searched and just cannot find them anywhere.
