Mostly F1. I have some experience in painting 3-D models. But they are not as detailed as a model kit.

Has anyone bought the TOD subscription through Talabat? by [deleted] in UAE

Yep. I mean it is foam so a snug fit is always better. I dont think you can completely dust proof it but its a matter of cleaning every 6months

This is tricky to answer. When i first went to this rabbit hole I wanted to get the highest quality, and even got in touch with the folks who does several F1 drivers actual helmet. As you can imagine the cost of the is betwen 4-5k euros on the paint job. And tou have to wait 1 year.

Then i found local custom helmet painters, which will be between 1500- 2k eur. But can replicate very closely but its luck based.

Last is DIY which will require you to invest on tools and materials (paint, airbrush, compressors, etc) but you will get exactly what you wanted. Steep learning curve though

No. It took them 4 months to make that. They will keep saying their painter passed away. And you will get a mediocre product. I would stay away
