Thanx Brandon, yeah Ive started that way now, seem to like it alot better then what I was doing before "cutting all the pieces out". But... ive been messing up alot. I had to redo the whole thing again. Also Iam worried about size. I want to have enouph extra room inside the helmet to put in...

Love the work your doing.. ive been totally slackin on my project. Holidays was gone to hawaii for abit and then came back and back to work grind and all that fun. Question... How did you get your size for the helmet. Did you measure from you tip of chin to top of head or other????? Thnx...

Doctor Napkin (btw love the name :P ) - yeah my little incident has left me with a bad taste for super glue. I consider myself lucky that i reacted fast enouph and soaked my hands in water. Had to scream for my wife to get out of bed.. was like 7am, I made it up to her later :P but yeah the hot...

Update before bed :P Did some more, here is what I added.... Going to do more tommorow and work on the right side. Plan on getting most of the top part done then working the sides, then finally ending up with the front part to do. Hope everything goes smoothly and of course...

Update, So started up the helmet, again this is my first ever pep. Using hot glue :) actually really like the hot glue, easily placed and you have enouph time to put the pieces as straight as you can before it hardens. So here are some progress pics. (above: Started the left side of...

So did some work tonight.. to me alot in one night seeing how detailed these pieces to cut are. Before looking at the pics I did a boo boo, I forgot to add in the numbers on my pages.. but I later then reprinted all the pages again on normal paper so that I can use that instead of waisting...

I have a cheep hotglue gun... just thought about all the little sections that It might just be easier with a little perm glue stick. I just printed out all the sheets...and I became very discouraged. But Iam not going to give up. Is there a good strategy reguarding the little sections? As...
