Only knew because I am making the same helmet, though yours looks way neater than mine.

Here's where I am at I gotta clean up some of the glue strings from the hot glue but it's coming out good for my first pep

Looks good. Next time I would suggest finishing the pep before you start the thread because you have a three page thread going for a almost complete helmet. Although unlike most others you do have pics which is good. And I assume Tay you should be done and ready to start the resin stages.

Good luck!

Yea I agree with you on that

I'd disagree... especially with someone who is still new to the pep process, it helps to get advice as you go and be able to fix the issues before the finished build rather than having to restart the whole thing. But it does deffinitly help that he is posting plenty of pictures. NOt trying to be argumentative or snarky

just throwing in my 2cents

Keep posting, its nice to see it grow and gives the chance for others to help while your building.
I hated the stringy hot glue too, but I did love how quick it fixed bits together. Anyone know of a non stringy hot glue, lol?

I plan on starting the chest tonight trying to figure out the where to scale from across my chest or my neck area down

Doesnt matter which you measure, top to bottom or side to side though side to side is probably going to reduce the risk of getting it wrong as there is less room for getting it a bit wrong?

Havent started the armour, still sanding :-( but will be taking notes

I personally don't (except the one I wrote to you in my other thread). But I would really appreciate if you share the way you successfully will do your sizing

braytak · Nov 12, 2010

So I finish , and I think it looks pretty good for my first time only thing I am not happy with is that the helmet it self is a little wide is the any method known to kind of modding it some how to make it not as wide ? I will have pics later tonight
