Day 39 Helmet!!!

[tripperfunster]

Well, I learned something. Hot glue does not stick to car paint. Or, not very well, anyway. *sigh* Oh well. With the velcro enclosure, it now fits Quincey, but damn! It is hard to see out of. No wonder Tony has all those video feeds! Now that it's done, I see lots of problems with it, but considering it was a first try, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.





I'm also not thrilled with the paint colours. I went with 'metallic' but perhaps I should have chosen pearl. I wanted it to be shinier. But there wasn't exactly a way to try them out in the store. ;)

Damn. If hot glue doesn't stick to car paint, how will I ever get that Deadhead sticker to stay on my car? :¬) That helmet turned out very well. I'm impressed! There wasn't a way to test the colors out in the store? In Canadian Tire they used to let shoppers test out the spray paint colors (& I think they still do) if they were unsure (same with the car retouch paint).

There didn't seem to be a way to test them out. *shrug* I was actually surprised they weren't all stuck behind a cage. (as per spray paint laws)

I see a lot of lawbreakers up in this house. ROFL!
