I am a Cylon

Post by GoldCylon » Tue Jan 29, 2008 9:31 am

With a fan film based off the original series, mostly the Cylons I suited up into the suit. I posted a few in the gallery.

I wish the filming section was complete, it would be nice to get this put away, and watch it. Only time will get this done.

Which part of the helmet do you look out of. I know on my Storm Trooper bucket my visibility is quite limited.

The Cylon helmet has what is known as salt & pepper holes. These tiny holes are above the red eye , and between the Mohawk. Take a look from the Razor movie, the CGI even has the salt & pepper drawn into the helmet.

Interesting.....that seems more restrictive that the Storm Trooper.

There were two types of the helmet, as far as I can remember...

The first was a hero version with the salt and pepper holes over the "eye borrows" and the second a stunt version without electronics with a small slit over the scanner for the actors to see...

Sorry it isn't finished, I can seem to find ANYONE that can keep the GREEN screen in the back ground. The white wall seems to find its way into the film WAY to much, and also poor lighting,
