Still working on this helmet painting on and off. Never been at a painting this long- started about 2 months ago. 

Keep on building it up.

And it also had some 'outfit changes'. The clothes were originally painted in glistening gold- a new acrylic paint I bought in a separate tube. And yesterday I decided to give the helmet a good wipe down with a damp cloth before working on it again. Turns out the gold paint wasn't suitable for this surface despite being 'waterproof'. It came off easily like a rubbery balloon-like pieces. 

Thankfully the rest of the painting was resilient and strongly gripping onto the helmet =)
