Welcome to the 405th,



First off all read all the stickies, and don't create threads just for questions.

And thank you, for posting in this thread instead of creating one.



If you need any help you just PM.

Well, you should read the stickies like Alex spartan177 said, I've only been doing it for a year now, you will mess up alot and your first one will will look not so great.

I didnt read any of the stickies when I started this helmet because I started making this helmet before I joined the forum, but now that I did read them they really help.

But I will answer the question, use cardstock not the mania folder because you cannot print on it.

when I started I stated off with the most basic Halo 1 helmet and moved on from there, start simple do Not go for the hard ones or the HD go for the ones you can practice on, also if you are in school you need to have lots of free time,so do homework first then pepakura,I started this helmet two months ago but did all the stuff in this pic in three days and I only have to print out the last two pieces to finish this helmet. I'll finish either tonight or tomorrow, because I cut my hand when I fell from my unicycle.

thanks for viewing my thread.

Does it fit?

 

[cottenmouthsnake]

I'm sure because I made it to my size from an old helmet size but I'm not gonna try because Ill have to cut part of it.

I'm sure because I made it to my size from an old helmet size but I'm not gonna try because Ill have to cut part of it.

If you mean the hole in the bottom, then you should probably make sure it fits now before it's like steel after fiberglassing. Looks really nice though, much better than mine if that counts for anything.

 

[cottenmouthsnake]

I know, its not the size worried about its fine I just need to cut the bottom after its resined

 

[AlexSpartan177]

Looks really good, Its that the smooth version of belakor???

 

[cottenmouthsnake]

nope.

 

[AlexSpartan177]

nope.

is it the normal version of belakor???

 

[cottenmouthsnake]

yep.

 

[ArktosPendragon]

Looks good. Personally, I think you should have gone with the smoother version, but it looks great anyway.

 

[cottenmouthsnake]

yeah I know, its just when started I didnt think of it
