Hi all!!

I'm new here and I want to show you a little different thing than my army, It's a full scale helmet of a Space Marine. Modeled in water clay and then make a copy in resin and fiberglass. It is weareable. I will finish it the next days (I hope!) Comments (good and bad) are welcome!!!

If some one wants more info, please PM me.

Thanks!!!!

**Flying Pooo**

Nice! Are you going to make a full power armour suit along with that?

**Danaedhel**

For now, I'll be happy when I finish this. But in the future who knows

**SilverMK2**

Looks pretty cool to me

It would be fun to see a full suit though

**MattRendar**

very cool! im doing a space marine outfit for my son . and the helmets the hardest part because im doing it in fabric foam to be light and cheap . yours looks awesome!

**romeo.lima**

If you do make a full suit up to that quality, then you, my good sir, will have become the definition of "awesome."

**Stargrave**

crafting power armor without the aid of a member of the adeptus mechanus?! HERESY!

on a more serious note this looks fantastic.

**Gitsplitta**

Sweet! Like it... like it a bunch.

**marvlev**

Looking great!

**chaos0xomega**

Wait, you made a copy out of resin and fiberglass? does that mean you made a mold? How much do you want for a copy!?

**nerdfest09**

Yep that is pretty damn cool, would be great fun to go through the drive through in! or sneak onto your head for your wedding photo's :-)

**warboss**

it looks great but it's probably not a 1:1 scale model... unless you're a 7ft tall steroid superfreak like a marine! you seem normally proportioned from the little we see on the pic so it's probably closer to 1:1.2, lol...

**Henners91**

WANT!!!111ONEONE

On serious note, wow... I'm speechless with envy :(

**Fiend**

Very cool. Dare I ask how it will be painted?

**Chowderhead**

Looking good!

Good question!

What chapter/legion are you aiming for?

**Henners91**

Y'know you it's going to be a Dark Angel...

Then you can make an awesome hood to go with it!

**Danaedhel**

Thanks guys!! Henners91, yes, it will be an Angel.. a Blood Angel

but if I finally make the mold, I will make one for each chapter (blood angels

, dark angels

, wolves

and ultramarines

... ok and a Chaos one

)

About selling it... if there are people interested maybe a small run will be done... who knows

Thanks!!!

I don't like the sound of that "who knows." You need to finish it off, even if it takes you months. Years, even! All the cosplay I've seen has been puffy, cartoonish foam jobs. I think a regular human-proportioned suit would look much sleeker and infinitely more badass. The nerdy masses will bow to you. And some will shell out the cash for copies if you ever do end up making them.

**AgentP**

I sure as hell would buy one as long as GW doesn't get upset.

Really cool though!

**FlyDog**

That helmet is megatits. Finish it, and get some power armour and you'll win at everything forever.

**Lt. Coldfire**

1. You have too much time on your hands, and 2. That's freaking awesome.

**Danaedhel**

Thanks guys!!

I have to finish it before planning any kind of armor, but it's a thing I have in mind. I'm glad you like it.

THANKS!!

Hahaha nice one!
I'd buy one if you cast them!

**wyrd boy of da naith**

Good one o en lengua nativa es ta muy bien hecho cuanto te tardaste?

**Byte**

Thats freakin' awesome!

**A Black Ram**

You know you want to wear it while you ride your bike..

**wyrd boy of da naith**

hahahahaha you could get a gang of bikers to use a bunch of those hahaha it would be fun

**Danaedhel**

Good one o en lengua nativa es ta muy bien hecho cuanto te tardaste?

Gracias!! In fact I started this thing a long time ago, but I can't be able to finish it. Real work time, about 20-30 hours I think, between modeling, moulding, fiberglassing, sanding, and a lots of -ing's

**Tanhausen**

MUY guapo

A shame you didnt do the grid so you could breath... but I guess that is because of the mold

How much have you spent on materials?
