Van Helmet

admin

Got tired of the "tribal" design on the helmet that I got for free with my lincoln. Initially I wanted to do urban camo, but halfway through designing it I had this brilliant idea. I call it the van helmet.

Reply:Thanks guys!  It was much easier than the urban camp I had planned. I just cut strips of masking tape randomly and tried to space them out between coats of paint. Now if only I could weld as good as the helmet looks....
