The final design for Hermes helmet. This was sculpted and cast in the UK with replacement wings glued on, three sets off. The schedule dictated that we were to film the athlete flying first, which meant he had to jump into the sea with it (something it wasn't designed for, the wings would have broken off). As we needed this helmet throughout the shoot I needed to make sure the wings weren't damaged so hastily fixed them on with fishing line instead of glue to give them some flexibility. Luckily we didn't loose any.
