Introduction: WWII Captain America Helmet
Here is the Captain America WWII Helmet I made over the weekend. I saw the helmet at a store for $10 and couldn't help myself once I saw it.
Step 1: Items Needed
Here is a list of the items you are going to need
Helmet (Surplus stores or where ever you can find)
Spray Paint
1. Primer
2. Blue
3. White
Scotch Paint Tape
Utility Knife
Step 2: PRIME!!!!
Here is the primer stage
Make sure to get an even coat
Step 3: Blue
Here is the blue paint.
Same as the primer get it as even as you can
I did about two and half coats
Step 4: How Do You Spell A?
Here is the A part
I used the scotch tape here and covered the front part and wrote a big A in the front (no pics)
Then went and cut out the A with the utility knife.
Some of the paint came of with the tape here around the A (I used the knife too hard)
When I put on the white paint it made a mess. And the paint rubbed off to the actual helmet no idea why?
So I used the primer again and thats how I did the A
Step 5: Finished Product
Here is the finished product!!
Again the white paint gave me an issue and rubbed off
And I used a fan to help the paint dry quicker
