Can't wait to see yours in action!! Helmets WERE an issue for us, but we decided to go with an open face helmet to make them appear as though the pilots just don't have their masks on, similar to the original SDF Macross or this image: http://api.ning.com/files/WTJj0Pj8Ud4-0BO3e8ns3AXek58NpQzwOOpGbNVENrhFFTTp*mQlxTxovmUnaRGzwGEMNvOsdRB9OT2GpFp4-RuwIJTU6275/shin_kudo.jpg?width=184&height=184&crop=1%3A1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 1:1 Roy Focker TV Helmet and thought of using that as a base to make as you said "An open faced M-0 helmet" as the forward Visor and mask section, thats where it gets a bit dodgy!
