I started out with a basic frame made from foam board, with two segments cut out so I can see once its constructed.
Here's the side view, with a better look at its shape and the two "peep holes".
Then I applied two layers of fiberglass screen to cover the holes so that I can see out but others can't see in. I also made a frame of sorts to hold in in place using a strip of wood and more foam foamboard.
To the back of the helmet I placed six bottle caps that will, hopefully once its painted, look like large bolts.
I purchased two cans of spray paint: one a textured paint that has the appearance of hammered metal and another regular paint that looks like wood grain.
Sadly I can't continue with this project until the rain stops, and its supposed to be like this for the next few days. I'll post again once I've made some progress. Oh, and the robes will be made of an old sheet I got from a thrift store, painted to look dirty. YAY FOR DYI HALLOWEEN!
