Description
Durarara Celty Helmet

I got an old helmet. Remove the visor and clean up the helmet to prepare for modification.

1) I create a paper template by folding it into the cat ear shape direct on the helmet. In this case, I can adjust the curvature as well as to mark the location of the ears.

With the template, I made a reverse trace for the opposite ear.

2) I fold and mount the paper ears onto the helmet using masking tape. Then I filled up with foam to secure the shape.

3) I wrap the ears with foam sheets, and primer coat the helmet and gesso coat the ears. The coatings enable me to better work with the spraying later on.

4) I spray the helmet yellow and did a masking of the design. then I spray the blue for the pattern. Lastly I coat the paintwork with glossy paint.

5) As my helmet was an obselete design. the is no black visor available for sale. So I use a UV flim for window and glue over the existing visor before I fix the visor back.
