Hey man, this is looking great! good work so far!

Thats not a bad idea, it would make a lot more room for what i need to do, ill put that on the list of possibilities.

Best idea i could come up with is military helmet padding. You can order a kit, it comes with velcro circles with adhesive on the backside, and pads with velcro loops on the backside, a big round center piece, forehead piece, and several support pieces, and can be arranged for better fit or...

Luke, my name is josh and im just getting started myself. Heads up, there is alot of reading required. To start your going to need a program called pepakura (sp?). on this program you download files and it gives you the base of your armor, which you print out on card stock and it shows you how...
