Cardboard/Fiberglass Halo 3 inspired Master Chief Costume

Step 14Painting

Painting
Once the bondo was fully cured I sprayed a coat of primer and then the color coat.

After letting the final coat of paint cure for a full 24 hours I weathered the helmet by spraying a small area with dark grey automobile primer and immediately wiping most of it off. Once this was dry, I dry brushed sliver paint to make the helmet look worn from years of battle.
