Yup, I got my hands on one of Harrison's (Volpin) Guy Manuel casts. I recently decided that the scale of the helmet was just too big for me, and I would like to find a new helmet that is more aptly scaled. I would love to trade this for either a Volpin or Firewire Thomas helmet or a well done Guy Manuel (Beastman, etc). I'd prefer to not sell straight up, but PM me any offers, and we will go from there.

What comes with this:
-The cast (which I have started trimming, and will add the trimmed photos tonight)
-Two lens cutouts for making the wire back piece

NOTE: this does NOT come with a lens, but Beastman is able to make them for you.

See, its too big. I'm 5'9" and this was scaled for someone who was 6'4".

My friend who is 6'3" and 300lbs. See, much better scaling.

I've gotten a lot of questions about dimensions, so here you go! 10.5" tall x 9.5" wide x 14.5" from front to back. The last photo shows where I have started trimming the cast.

Thanks for the offers Thomas and Igor! I am strongly considering both, but I want to let this run for a day or two and see what other offers I get before I make a decision.

That's how highly regarded a Volpin work is, I suppose.

Ha yeah no kidding. Let me be the first to say that Harrison's work is top notch. This thing is beautiful. I really wish it would have fit me because I've been hounding Harrison since April for a cast.

You'd give me both?! :D
Lol no... I would do one or the other. I just want it to have it, I want to have other people's work to sit by mine. I don't think I would really finish it though. I would want the raw form.

Igor - for sure man. I'll get back to you. You know as well as I do how good a Volpin would look finished next to your astounding work.

If you want any other pics/vids/whatever, just pm me and I'd be glad to accommodate.
