Hey guys, new to the 405th!!!
Im just wondering about this halo prop that im trying to create. Its a pepakura halo 3 assault rifle. Ive completed the pepakura stage and its ready for resining, and fibreglassing, but im not sure if i should make it any more rigid first. It has toilet rolls on the inside to increase stength, but this is my first model, and im wondering if this will be stong enough to withstand the resin.
As it is pepakura it is made of cardstock. Im wondering if i should fill the prop with expanding foam to make it rigid before resining it.
Also im wondering if i need to use the fibreglass mat, or can i just resin the prop?
Thanks all!!
