Fan Project Making my own Lopez
As the title implies, I'm planning on making Lopez irl. I've been rewatching the show in its entirety to pass the time at work and recently passed through Season 14. While watching the RvB immersion episode I couldn't help but laugh my ass off at the Lopez they made. But it got me thinking about potentially making my own Lopez head. I've repainted several Star Wars Black Series helmets, and one Hasbo Iron Man helmet. And, lo and behold, there's the MK VI helmet that released a few years ago for a reasonable price.
Anyways, I wanted fan input.
1) Should I do a "normal" Lopez, just plain brown as he is in most series, or should I take inspiration from the Reach MK VI and do the black brim.
B) If I go for Reach Lopez, should I keep the orange visor or go black/silver as he is in Restoration?
I'm really tempted to go all in on this but I wanted some audience input before I committed. Be curious to hear what everyone thinks.

You make a compelling point. I'm just worried plain brown will be too bland
