Opened myself up to a handful of commissions, and a friend asked for Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills.
I am NOT a fan of sports, generally speaking.
Couldnβt find a pattern with shoulders or a helmet that I liked so I made my own π
I had to make the helmet twice. π
I used markers for the logo, and on the original helmet I applied a diluted glue+water mixture to the inside of the helmet that caused the ink on the outside to run.
On the second one I applied the diluted glue FIRST and let it dry before adding the logo.
The face-guard is just wire-wrapped yarn.
Iβm pleased with how the helmet turned out and my friend LOVES it. So Iβm happy!
(Even happier to get back to more fun/weird stuff)
