pThis video is so freaking awesome, because it’s like an ID modelmaking class on speed. Atlanta-based prop designer A HREF=”http://volpinprops.blogspot.com” Harrison Krix/A decided to make his own Daft Punk helmet, spending an amazing 17 months getting it just right. (It almost might have been faster to try joining the band!) Turn your volume down if music will jolt your Monday-morning co-workers awake and get you in trouble, and behold what Krix hath wrought:/p
