Hey!
I've been planning this for a long time but, was busy doing this and that, so, eventually...
This is a kabuto aka samurai helmet. It's not perfectly polished yet, and as it will be my master model to cast a few more, I still need to work on the details a bit. Yet, I couldn't wait any longer to show it to you guys.
The mempo (face mask) is not finished either, it needs a bit more trimming, especially between the eyes, and I might add a nose too. Both kabuto and mempo will be painted later, obviously. 8}

After I've visited the Samurai expo in Paris, I might come up with different versions of the horns, and new ideas for the mempo. Can't wait to go there!
Best,

That looks really good. There are some interesting crests out there.

Thanks guys!
I edited my post. There are now two different photos and not twice the same anymore! Hope it remains so, I can't understand what happened with Photobucket, I had to upload the images twice and it kept displaying the same picture on and on...
@cheng: I'll send you some pics via PM if you want. I hope to go there on sunday.
Best,
Arnaud

The horns over the head???....is very clear that this should be a separate piece
with a small tongue and groove....so you can design different types of interchangeable horns.
If you have big problems, I can help you, send my one piece and I make for you one mould and one "matrix" to make more moulds......this offer expires in five minutes :lol: :lol: :lol:
