WIP: Daft Punk (Thomas Bangalter) Tron Helmet Pepakura

I apologize in advance for the pace of this project and my future updates. The word "cold" doesn't begin to describe how freaking miserably freezing it has been around here, and the temperatures have been getting in the way of my outside work.

I am working on a Daft Punk Thomas helmet that I will hopefully be able to don for a few cons this year. The .pdo is the Dung0beetle tron helmet.

Paper:







Resin:



The chin/ mouth area didn't come out quite symmetrical in the pep, but I shot it with the heat gun and bent the helmet around a little bit until it was symmetrical. I also leveled out the ears a little bit with the heat gun since I opted to glue them on early on in the process, instead of glassing them separately and attaching them after I bondo'd the whole thing. I hope it doesn't come back to bite me in the ass, but I'm really hoping to work with a 1 piece helmet instead of 3 for this build.

It is hard to tell how off the chin is here, but it was noticeable enough...





I will try and update things as quickly as possible, but who knows...
