    Airbrushing Helmet???

    In my latest track activities, I managed to crack the back of my full face helmet. It had a custom hand painted comic-bookish style skull painted on it. It wasnt really what I wanted but it was still cool.





    Thats what it looked like. I want to go in a different direction but still with the skull theme.

    What I really want is a white full face helmet painted up to look like a skull. Black lines with some ever so light shading. Anyone know of someone skilled enough to pull this off?? The more evil the better! Price too if you know. TIA!

    in the open wheel stuff where the helmet is used to identify drivers - I go for the bold designs - so its easer to see at speed.

    Axcell graphics painted this for me (to my design specs.)

    Yeah, those all seem to blend into one another to me and besides, im in a closed car. I could paint up something like that myself.

    I want something different, something odd.

    I just got my helmet. Where can I get this thing customized in SD or OC?
    I'll go just about anywhere if I get to see some of these :boobies:

    Re: Airbrushing Helmet???

    I just purchased an airbrush for myself (Patriot 105) as I believe it is the next step in my helmet design development. Usually, when I get my design I go to SpeedGraphics and they can do one paintbrushed. They'll do just about anything you want. Cool!
