Been thinking about doing this for some time. As you know, Aku and Samurai Jack are dear to me -- been my avatar forever.

Here is my starting canvas - HJC CL-15 matte black. Great helmet - super light and comfortable.



Roughing out the design:




White down:


Green down:



Red down:



Finished product:






Some touch ups to do once it cures some more.

I'll put my gold shield back on in a few days time and put up the super final pic.

Happy racing!

very creative i like

 

I have a Cl 15 for my bike...

 

nice!

 

yup^^^^^^^^^

 

before it cures, hit all surface w/ another coat.... then cover the rest of the helmet then clearcoat it

 

Wow that's a wicked helmet, any chance you can tell me what it cost? I'm looking at replacing an open-face helmet with a closed-face helmet.

 

Nicely done Mike

I believe helmetcity.com has it for about $150. I just bought a white full face HJC from them for about $129.

 

I would, but the paint pens I am using have xylene as the carrier. So when I tried to put down another coat - it tends to wipe off the old coat. Once it cures off, I can hit it with more.

I picked this up from helmetcity.com

But if mostly a car/track helmet -- check out the Pyrotect's

Its SA05 over my M05 -- all but one MI track allows M05 for street cars.

Thanks Rob!

 

Srsly? The best price I found on HJC AR-11 was like 250$.

 

I have a Pyrotech open face right now and to be honest, I'm not a Pyrotech fan. It's not a bad helmet but it's bulky, heavy and the quality isn't superb (a screw broke the first day I had it).

 

Nice to see an original design on a helmet. I have a Shoei RF-1000 for my riding duties.

 

LOL! i had to log in and give you LOTS OF PROPS! I love it!

 

Thanks!

 

very cool
