Last time I looked at the progress he was just starting the electronic. Looks like he finished it up in the past 4-5 weeks since then. Awesome build.

What is he covering the foam with that it doesn't melt?

Bondo is the red stuff

This is awesome! I'm helping a guy out with the other Daft Punk helmet now! I may do a similar photo shoot in the future with my DeLorean

I need to back and look on a PC but I thought that was the foam.

Sean, my friend, I have found it for you!

"Pink foam acts badly when exposed to polyester resins (bondo, fiberglass, etc) so it was sealed with a few coats of urethane casting resin. This gives me a tough, lightweight shell to work on top of without worrying about it dissolving the foam base."

He has the entire build all written up. COOL, COOL, COOL!
