CUSTOM Mandalorian helmet from Black Series Prototype Boba Fett

[@apathtrampledbydeer8446]

Love the music and the raspy radio transmission voice!

[@daveofalltrades805]

And I love a path trampled by deer! Thanks

[@darkblades1201]

Youre a real mad lad taking it apart. I dont have the guts to do that lol i just taped the shit out of mine to prevent paint getting where i didnt want it. Turned out really good actually!

[@sun332s7]

That whole deconstruction segment was amazing. I’ve been having massive difficulty with getting the helmet to fit comfortably

[@avery7061]

I find it best to just wear a thick beanie underneath and take out the headstrap

[@gilgy4626]

Love the paint scheme, looks like a combination between the holiday special boba fett and the deathwatch

Dave: *applies to Mandalorian Mercs* Dave (next video:) …and then they made me their Chief.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Haha! Drink up, me hearties

[@Plastic_Spaceman]

Looks great! Love watching that sIlver paint go on. Hate seeing it come off. Hah. Can’t wait to see the rest of the build.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks man! Yeah, it’s heartbreaking to see. But then you move on and it adds to the depth, right? All part of the story.

[@Plastic_Spaceman]

@@daveofalltrades805 Exactly. Nothing to do but press on.

[@rocker761001]

nice to hear you're learning blender! excited to see what comes out of that

[@charlesjennings93]

Found this video while searching for different ways to do my black series prototype helmet. Your process is very good and the way your helmet turned out is amazing. And that jurassic park reference at 14:10 is funny.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks man! I think you’re the first to comment on it

[@CrazyRampage]

I really enjoyed the video, I hope you create more videos in the future.

[@daveofalltrades805]

I’m working on one right now! Should be out soon

[@kinley1206]

Keep up the good work Dave. Love your buckets

[@Unam-et-Solum]

That blue is awesome. Great job on this one.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks! I really dig it too

[@Dork_224]

Amazing video! I have a prototype helmet that I've been wanting to paint for a while now and your video is the most detailed one I've found yet. I'm planning on doing Olive Drab green with mine

[@samjesse3818]

You seriously deserve more subs man. You're always professional and you know what you're doing. I learn something new from every video I watch. Keep it up!

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks Spacefaring Soul! I appreciate that

[@memesredacted]

I've got a 3d printer and printed myself a Din Djarin helmet. I then made some armor out of foam. If I ever make another set of armor, I really don't know whether I should have something movie/ show accurate or make a custom set with custom paint

[@daveofalltrades805]

Can’t go wrong if you’re having fun doing it

[@johnfuld5511]

Thanks for the inspiration…just finished mine. It was the Death Watch version that I did.

[@Raskle1989]

I love this concept, I did the same thing myself with the prototype helmet and it turned out great, I even painted some of the interior pieces

[@daveofalltrades805]

Filled in some different colors on the wires and stuff?

[@neonvandal8770]

Awesome work my dude! I've had a rubies helmet sitting in its box for 2 years while I decide on what I'm going to do colour wise and getting my techniques down. Today's the day! Thanks for the inspiration 👌

[@daveofalltrades805]

I’d love to see what you ended up going with!

[@dannyridley7524]

Another fantastic job dave xxx awsome looking

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks man! I appreciate it

[@heavybrett-al4082]

This was fascinating and addictive to watch, love your work👍🙏 very inspiring also

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@cobaltspider-man9045]

If u wanna paint the brown/orange rubber inside the helmet you can use spray flex seal or plastidip

[@daveofalltrades805]

That’s a good idea! Cheers

[@cobaltspider-man9045]

@@daveofalltrades805 thanks man and your welcome

[@ryanhendricks7304]

Nice job, buddy!

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks man!

[@zXSEBOXz]

As soon as I saw you use that rustoleum metal finish, I knew your day was gonna get fucked up lol. NOTHING sticks to that stuff, I haven't tried yet but I think putting a gloss coat on the silver and then doing all your liquid and tape masking would fix all the paint coming up.

[@TheBLINDGIANT]

Vids rock! Please consider adding your product choices… paint brands, colors ETC. To the description ?

[@daveofalltrades805]

That’s a good idea!

[@mikeybarrow1115]

This is awesome, kinda wish you filmed the sanding of the damage cos I'm so scared to do it but I really wanna custom mine 😂

[@daveofalltrades805]

It’s a leap of faith. I believe in you! Filling in the existing damage isn’t mandatory though. You could easily just start painting right over it

[@henleystudios]

Dave, amazing video as always. Love seeing your processes, and I've certainly learned so much for doing mine. And it looks BADASS! Great job!

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thank you sir!

[@daxxaa238]

Great vid as usual. I’m now officially an addict! Speaking of armor for this is there any new content that might have this hmmmmm.

[@daveofalltrades805]

It’s printed, filled, sanded, and silver, but sitting in storage hopefully not crushed. We moved across country and I haven’t had the time to go find it and get it started again. But I think it’s time!

[@JT-xd4do]

That damn extra bag of screws

[@daveofalltrades805]

Never a welcome sight

[@anthonywatson3130]

Thanks for the video! What tint did you use for the visor? I've been looking for something inexpensive to darken mine, but don't want to sacrifice visibility. I've been looking for "one-way" black tint, but never thought about using a reflective tint inside-out.

[@daveofalltrades805]

They called it privacy film on Amazon. Just watch out so you don’t get the static-cling style stuff

[@Haunter_Who88]

Subbed!! I had JUST picked up the Black Series Deathwatch helmet today and like the prototype it has the same scuff markings on the mold. Definitely want to give it a repaint in areas but also really loving the stock color on it as well XP regardless this was a great tutorial to follow down the road and Definitely helps with the one other thing I was curious about which was the visor tint and using window privacy film.

[@daveofalltrades805]

That is a great looking bucket. I’m glad they’re getting more use out of those molds!

[@guilegustafson1459]

Awesome video man! What sanding grits would you recommend? Gonna start working on my black series deathwatch helmet here soon.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Thanks man! Maybe as low as 120 for tearing down gobs of filler, but other than that 220 and up. Plastic isn’t that tough. I think I paint at 600

[@wtf53535353]

What metallic spray paint did you use for the base coat? Looks great.

[@daveofalltrades805]

Hey sorry for the long delay! I use “Rust-oleum bright coat metallic finish”

[@jacks12051]

Where did you find that caulk gun? I love how you apply your masking with that. I need one!

[@daveofalltrades805]

On amazon- it’s called Sure Shot Applicator for Peel Tek

[@drakeangelheart]

Try using an old tootbrush to flick it it on - works even better.

[@NothingToSeeHere32]

Go here if you want to skip the disassembly - HA! No sir, I shall enjoy ALL of the video thank you very much and leave a like to boot!

What paint did you use for the chrome it looks great 👍

Awsome! Sounds good, and good luck with your move👍🏻

[@YEAR-1-RELICS]

I laughed so hard when you said those rubber pads were for show and the helmet came with a harness that was the most uncomfortable thing you put on your head so its not going back in there.
