The One With The Yellow Helmet

So here it is, I’ve completed the construction of my helmet and I will titled this piece ‘The Head’. Actually I haven’t made up my mind yet.

As I get my material which is the helmet, i tried to get the shape together by trying out different combination. Taping it together by masking tape, I tried to get the shape to stay and it kinda work but this combination is not really covers the side of the head. helmet2-3As you can see below, this combination does not cover the side and it is redundant as it won’t allow full protection. So I explore more different shapes and decided to get one more helmet into the mix. 3F2A6792 copy

After getting one more helmet, I took the design of my first sketch actually. Visually it looks pleasing as well!

I also realise when I was wearing it, it has an echo as the helmet is shape as such. It adds another element to it i guess.

The helmet is joined by making a simple drill and tighten it by bolt and nut.

Finding the right place to join was quite a challenge as well cause I would need to find the right spot.helmet-4
