Give this prop designer props: Harrison Krix's DIY Daft Punk helmet

This video is so freaking awesome, because it's like an ID modelmaking class on speed. Atlanta-based prop designer Harrison Krix 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:

Though you can see some process shots on Krix's website, there's probably not gonna be an Instructable on this one--it took him 749 steps!

Just posted a YouTube of my own 'Daft Punk' helmet:

Though it only took me a week (7 days, not 7 months), I commend you on the great job in the documentation and your commitment to the cause.

I plan on wearing mine to the Tron premiere in December. Otherwise, I'm certainly planning to make a few more. Hope you are doing the same.
