Nice ;)

What did you use to make the helmet?

Nice! The helmet is pretty good, but the lower 'dish' should be bigger.

As he said, he used "Sculpey" which is a brand-name for a polymer "clay" sold in craft and art stores here in Canada (and I think the US as well). It comes in air and oven-hardening varieties and a number of different colours.

BTW Aaron, I thought you had found a way to make a fabric cover for a brodie when I first saw your picture. Adding some netting and foliage effects for some hedgerow fighting would be really cool.

Thats kinda the effect I was going for, more of a covering for the Mk III than a Brodie Mk II. Unfortunately the baking process kinda negates the possibility of adding foliage precook, but post-cook....hmmmmm...(I think I have a new project for tonite)
