Hello Everyone. I've been wanting to build a helmet for a long time and recently had the time to do it. I started out by doing the standard hot glue method of construction followed by the resin and bondo. My first try with mixing the resin and bondo for the inside didn't go well. The amount I used was wrong and put too much of the hardener in. By the time I went to pour it in the mix had hardened before the stream could touch the bottom of the helm. I was not happy about that and had to go back to the store to buy another container of bondo. After that I figured it out and did a few cups of the resin to finish it.
I spend days on detailing and patching up bumps and rough spots. But that didn't matter because when I used my primer it exposed the rough areas and made them gritty. I hit some snags along the way and decided there was no way I was making the rest of the suit...
Until about a week later when I started on my Grif helmet and suit. So far the helmet is done and from start to finish it was 5 day, unlike the first which took a couple weeks.
I'll keep up progress of Grif when I get each piece finished.

I was also wondering the best way to cut and attach the visor.
