    Yeah it's always good to do that, I prefer layering myself which is what I'm doing here because it also has the added benefit of getting an even layer + sand ver the whole helmet, after a few layers when it's nice and smooth you get a large applicator for the filler and push hard against the...

    I actually completely forgot to scale it to be very honest, I remebered about it after I finished it and it looked rather small, I had a look at pepakura which indicated the height of the model should be 26cm when complete, i quickly measured my head and it turned out to be around 24cm so I...

    So not too much progress so far, works kept me a bit busy as of late, aiming to fix the symmetry issues, not really that many just one or two lines that could use evening out and nothing that'll be too noticeable if i forget them anyway. Fit is quite perfect, gonna have to skip the ear padding...

    Bit of an update: Haven't done too much on the helmet but will be doing the final stages before I clean it up for priming. Started to think of my final cosplay and purchased these two items to attach the plates to. With abit of scrounging through AliExpress and Ebay I managed to score the...

    Yeah thats exactly what I did. Worked pretty well and I can get my head in and out even though it is a little tight still but its not uncomfortable by any means.

    Heres around about the 2nd layer and also a 3rd in some areas. Photos are a little distorted because of the camera but I also widened the vertical sections near the ears. I noticed the helmet model was thinner than it appears in the game so I smothered some filler on the backside of a rectangle...

    Its less me having patience with layering and more me not wanting to sand a whole bunch, im usually sanding from 9-1 every day so the less of it the better for me haha.

    AHAHA I just noticed that, its one of the small holes i was using to check sizing in the mirror lol. Im thinking Ill scratch the visor I get with a needle and make it look like cracks in the glass now :D

    Was thinking I might keep a rifle on a sling or maybe have a thigh mounted smg. Wasn't going to have mine carry grenades but im sure it could be done easily with either magnets or a clip of some kind

    I havent played Destiny myself but yeah it does abit :D The hunters do look dope I must say but Ive always loved that kind of aesthetic in the stuff Ive built. Heres one of my drawings from around a year ago which i guess Im kinda going off.

    Lets hope!! the helmet should only take me another two or three weeks depending on how busy I am but the rest should come quickly together if im lucky.

    Yeah Ive got an army surplus store 10 minutes from me so I can get one for about 60 NZD. Might check ebay but with shipping included might be better to just by it from a retailer here.

    Ive got a presentation in class on fibreglassing in two days so I thought it would be good to use my helmet to demonstrate its strengths so im going to leave the bondo-ing until after then because itll be abit more dramatic for the presentation if it just looks like paper. For now though just...
