Do you just apply resin or did you have to apply some cloths/sheets of fibreglass first?
This is the bit I don't understand...

This really depends on your helmet. I built mine out of 110lb cardstock so it is pretty sturdy. I then applied 2 coats of resin to the outside. The cheek pieces and the nose were the only places I reinforced with fiberglass cloth. I did that mainly because they weren't holding shape very well. I found that when you are working with the cloth it is best to put some resin on the place you are going to apply before you place your cloth down. It helps by giving a more solid connection. Some people will put cloth around the opening of the helmet.

It is the second post in this thread. He also included a link for a shield as well. Be exciting to see another spartan out there.
