I am currently just graduated and and fortunately accepted quite a promising job.
I live in Jakarta where traffic is hell so I decided to ride motorbike to work instead of car (30mins by bike included traffic/60mins+ by car).
As we know helmet is critical for bikers as head protection and I decided to get some airbrushed work on my helmet to express my personality as an F1 enthusiast. It is quite rare in Indonesia as F1 is not famous among the people.
As I am a Vettel and Kimi Fans, I decided to go either one of their design. It is really a tough options as Vettel changed his design almost every race in 2011.
My main options is Vettel's Singapore 2010 helmet with Technicolor design. As it was my first GP I attended and I love the design as well.
Here is the picture of the helmet and I really appreciate if the members here can help me get good quality picture of the helmet from various angle to help my airbrush-guy do his job at the exellent level.
I will try to post the progress and final result here just in case any members thought doing the same thing.
Here is some of the tips fellow F1T members gave.

ideally you should use a cast vinyl as that is easier to fit to a curved surface even still it will be a difficult design to replicate.
