Hi everyone, here is my attempt at the damaged MK50 helmet that was shown in the Endgame movie. This won't be much of a write up for now until I have more time when I'm back home. But here are a few pictures of my helmet. I used an Arduino mini to power the leds, there are leds in the eyes and inside of the helmet. I continued to play around with the paint and getting the damage on the faceplate closer to the helmet in the movie, I ended up making a couple of these. Im currently working on the MK85 suite in my spare time, loving this project along with following everybody's builds!
Thanks!!!
Awesome!!!
could you tell what colors you have used?
Thanks! I used Duplicolor Perfect Match Toreador Red, gunmetal basecoat, gloss black base coat on the faceplate, and Alclad II Chrome with a Gold tinted clear coat.
amazing, how did you do the brushed gold effect?
I used Alclad II airbrush paints then took a scotchbrite pad and lightly sanded it in one direction.
How hard was it to sand the very small detailed parts?
It was a pain, spot putty then primer filler and wet sanded it a few times. It still isn't perfect.
