helmet designs
South Africa gives you 6 colours to work with: green, gold, red, blue, black and white. Pick two to lead and keep the rest for pinstripes. Below are three South African helmet designs built from them. Spin each one, try it on another helmet type, then open it in the editor and make it yours.

Tips
Using South African colours on a helmet
-
01
Horizontal stripes wrap the shell as bands, with green at the crown. Tilt the lines so they rise towards the visor and they follow the shape of the helmet instead of fighting it.
-
02
White does the separating on South Africa's flag. On a helmet, a thin white pinstripe between green and gold keeps the edge crisp, and a white base makes the other colours look brighter.
-
03
Keep the flag itself small and somewhere it stays flat, such as behind the ear or low on the back. Flags on the curve of the crown stretch, and a small, sharp flag reads better from a distance than a large, distorted one.
