if they are really close dont cut em, just score and fold. some of those folds on that right side piece i only cut half of the actual fold, then just scored the rest.

ill see about getting some pics up. once you finish the jaw you will see how it attaches, i glued it to the main part of the helmet tho. i did not use the eyepiece, other than the center bridge over the nose. you can explode the view under the 3d menu... view setup.
