GP4: Hungarian GP and Aston Martin helmets updated in 2022 helmet pack

I for one am glad for the F1 summer break, not least because it gives me a bit of a break from helmet creating, but it also allows me a bit more time to get the helmets completed without rushing too much. So this update is a little later than usual, but I hope you don't mind. 

Sebastian Vettel - Hungarian GP

Sebastian Vettel 2022 Hungarian GP 'Lego' Helmet


Seb rocked up to Budapest with a lego themed helmet, with the slogan 'let the children play'. It's not the first lego themed helmet he's had, but sadly the Ferrari version never made it to a race. For this one, I actually borrowed some of my children's lego and recreated some of the parts of the helmet, some of it taken straight off photos, some of it recreated from vectors. It wasn't the easiest to put together, but I'm pretty pleased with the result. I had to change the seams a bit along the top to accomodate the overspill of lego over the aramco colours. The Sentinel logo keeps moving about in the last few races, having now seemingly settled on the sides. 

Nicholas Latifi - Hungarian GP

Latifi's not had the best of seasons, but did manage to bag the fastest time in one of the practice sessions at the Hungarian GP weekend, on a wet but drying track. Having run essentially the same helmet design since entering F1, he's swapped out the blue for an all red and white design. Goatifi's days in F1 seem to be drawing to a close,we'll wait and see if he runs anymore special lids before the close of the season. 

Aston Martin - French GP

Included in this update are the French GP variations of the Aston Martin helmets. Both drivers had to cover over the crypto logos, and run alternative Peroni branding on the visor. I've taken some time to make some improvements to Stroll's helmet in general too, and I've his standard helmet in this update as well. Here's a quick preview of the French GP lid.

I'm grateful for all your support in using these helmets on different platforms, it keeps me going when the motivation is lacking. 

Enjoy these helmets and have a great summer break.
