Painting a Replica of Pierre Gasly's 2022 French Grand Prix Helmet
Переглядів 10 тис.Рік тому
To date my artwork / painting has been mostly on flat surfaces, but I've had a helmet visor signed by Pierre Gasly and decided to tackle painting a replica of his 2022 French Grand Prix Helmet (Designed by Adrien Paviot Designs and painted by BS Designs) The video shows most of the steps in the process. The upfront work done to recreate the helmet graphics isn't included - That's could be it's ...

Superbe travai
Good job mate , Im planning to make ayrton senna's helmet . I will try applying stickers after apply clear coat on it . What do you think about that stickers (not painting)?
It’s down to personal preference… For me, I paint as much as I can unless it’s just not practical or the results won’t be up to my standard. Some of the best painters in the world use a lot of decals… More for speed/convenience.
Muito trabalho mas ficou incrível ! Like e inscrito
Gracias!
wait a minute man this is awesome, i've been thinking about making a verstappen helmet so long because no painter wants to do it due to copy right but ey ? i can always lie and say i bought it somewhere, so first how did you make those stickers and how do you cover them when you paint over it because max his helmet has a white base so i thought id first paint it white then put the decals on it and paint the rest of the colors
For max’s helmet you can use a white base and cut the logo’s in the vinyl. Instead of peeling the vinyl around de logo, you leave that and only remove the logo itself. That way you have a mask. The decals on max’s helmet are not painted btw, for his helmet they just apply the stickers and add clearcoat over it😉 There is an video of the making of his helmets on his official youtube channel
Probably not a big deal with copyright if you’re making it for yourself. I will be making a replica of one of Max’s helmets soon. Check out replies to other comments for how I made the stickers. Most are masks cut from vinyl then painted. A couple of the small / detailed logos below the visor were self-made water slide decals. This helmet started with a layer of the dark blue used by Alpha Tauri. I masked all the logos then painted the helmet white, then removed masks which left dark blue logos/graphics. It’s a time consuming process!
what do u use to make the text stencils?
These were made on a Cameo. Similar to a Cricut. I use software to create the vector graphics to make the stencils/masks.
Do u have a shop?

Thank you for sharing the progress. this is something I've been neglecting to start on my own lid. Can you share some thoughts about the chrome you used and you experience using it?
Thanks. The chrome parts are Oracal vinyl. Some painters will have a helmet chromed but that's usually $600+ and seemed overkill. From what I could tell, Pierre's actual helmet was also vinyl. I used a cheaper vinyl on my first attempt but it was slightly thicker, the adhesive wasn't as good, and it didn't like going around curves. I sprayed 2K clear coat, let it cure 24hrs, applied vinyl and let that sit for a day to make sure it didn't start peeling up. When that was good I did the final coats of clear coat to bury the vinyl.
After clearing multiple coats did you have to sand it down at all to keep it from getting edges from the vinyl ?
