Now till today I saw what I will call the brow line over the scanner section. I thought what I saw was a pencil or some other marking. Now I see is what looks like a section with a channel like cutting. Is it all the way though? Those helmets that were cut like that was the later version so the guys in the suit could see a bit better over the salt, and pepper holes. Mylar was used to hide the cut.

That link was in early pages. The garrison leaders slit can be seen.

I wanted the one I did to appear as if it was taped. So it's soft and shallow.

What did you use, or how did you make the nice clean sharp looking channeling.

Besides the guide line was it free hand, or a arched guide you followed. I love how it came out.

Looks great. Is that the Alsa system or just a can of spray paint.

Creslite which is pretty impressive in it's own right. It looks like vacmet to me.

I got to get some paint from Sam.
