Title: 1981/1982 Clemson Football Helmet Build Thread
Post by: ClemsonTiger on May 14, 2013, 12:02:33 AM
So I started making the 1981 national championship/1982 orange Bowl helmet. I am getting stuff in bit by bit. I made the navy blue awards, have the paw decals for the side, and the players numbers all made from 20 mil.

Actual helmet components should be in by the end of the week.

Very nice. I wonder why they chose to go to the white awards versus the navy blue ones. I really like the navy blue paws. They "pop" more on the orange.

Have the orange bowl decal? Also want to see the helmet. Interested to see what the padding is going to look like.

I will make them whenever someone wants one. They will all be numbered and come with a certificate and a tamper proof hologram. I will make any of the years as mentioned in the classifieds ad.
