No problem! His book is still getting out there, so people are discovering us more and more as time passes.

Yeah, I bought mine at Otakon 2010. That was my first time Cosplaying as Half Naruto and Half Sasuke, and my first time going to anime conventions. Hopefully I can find/get a job and go to more of them.

Hi there~ Saw the video haha. Was wondering if you could tell me what you put into the latex mold of the helmet to make the white cast? I thought I heard plastidip but I wanted to make sure. And which came first; the pink latex mold or the outer casing (not sure what it's called or what it's made of, the yellowish/greyish/greenish part that is screwed together)?

The finished white cast is actually Smoothcast 320, not plastidip. It can be bought from Smoothon.com.
As for the helmet mold, the rubber was first applied to the original that we were making a mold of. When the layer of rubber was thick enough, we built up the outter layer out of Fiberglass and resin to support the inner rubber mold.
Hope that helps!

awesome, thanks :) I thought I heard them say plastidip, but it's actually much easier to use smoothcast because I have tons of it haha. Thanks again!
