It's funny how styles are cyclical. For a while I looked at old custom helmets with chrome accents and flames, as cool as they were, as being cheesy. Now I see them and I get wood. It's hard to not like a properly painted custom helmet done by the hands of a capable artist.

That's how I felt once! This local kid was painting up some cool helmets and I wanted one but then I remembered I was still a complete newbie goon haha.

I will have it by the end of the week and Bob takes photos like that as to not give all of the design away.He wants you to open the box like a kid on Christmas and be blown away.

Attention whoring?Not at all.This thread was supposed to be about custom helmets.Wanted peoples opinions and for them to post what they have.Obviously you don't need to wear a helmet with hair like that.

Thanks man. I like it. It fits well now that I redid the liners in it. I'm between sizes in the 6D so I had to swap the liner and cheek pads to really make it fit me. Now that it's done, I couldn't be happier.

They look really nice just so pricey. Hoping the cost comes down eventually.

Another super talented guy out of Michigan is Chad Harris from HCP Designs. Check out his work at https://www.facebook.com/pages/HCP-Designs/7434546254. He's done some work for us and we've always been pumped. The guy paints literally anything from helmets to full size boats. Not trying to spam here I just admire sick designs and wanted to share!

Just checked him out. He does really nice graphics and designs, I like it a lot. His art though is pretty bad, that goalie mask is a mess.

Could be my screen but looks like a lot of orange peel going on. Nice graphics though.
