[Video] How to finish a Helldiver helmet cast!
It pains me to say this, but there are better alternatives to 3D printed helmets. Helmets that are molded and casted are pre-smoothed, more durable, and quicker to finish!
They obviously take a lot of up-front time to make the mold, but that's time we dedicate to some of our most popular helmets! When the B-01 helmet received it's update not too long ago we also set out to update the helmet mold to reflect the increased accuracy. It's finally time to show off that work with a Chrome-diver helmet tutorial!
You can find the casted helmets, plus visors, here!
Hope you all enjoy!

You make a great note that casted props are indeed a better form for something like helmets, as it doesn't have layer lines. I have been hoping to begin getting into casting this year and I notice that you give casting molds in the files! Have you considered doing a YT video (long format) of that process for us who wish to begin casting parts/props/etc? Details relating to types of resin/material used and other little details would be great! I love 3d printing, but we must also evolve and take our skills to new heights as well. :)
