I have some friends going to a fancy dress party soon and I was throwing out some suggestions as to what they could wear. Well the next day I found myself pondering this whilst at work and I figured going as Thomas Bangalter from Daft Punk would be optimal. This is pretty much my perfect outfit, it would give me the anonimity of the helmet, and would also allow me to wear a suit (I'm very good at wearing suits). So I started doing some research on where to get one of these things, seems you can buy them for around $45k, so I started checking ebay to see if there was a budget version. Suffice to say I was unable to find anything, however I did stumble upon a community of people who specialise in making this kind of thing and I am now an integril part of this community. Some helmets looked like they were made by a retarded 5 year old.
Others looked like they would require the dedication of a 30 year old virgin who still lives in his parents basement.
For those of you thinking simlar here are some steps.
- Best base is a baseball batting helmet
- Cut the visor on the helmet
- Create the jawline out of thick card
- Ears should be made of foam
- LED's can be a programmable LED belt buckle
- Don't try this unless you can do a good one, wearing a poorly done helmet could be social suicide.
- Bukkake Fashions
