I am currently making a Carter costume from Pepakura and every pieces of armor is in the right scale except for the helmet. I could resize it and rearrange everything but I can't save cuz I don't have the password. So I wanna buy a Carter Helmet Pull, not painted or anything that is around 30cm-34cm......My budget is $40-$50.
Carter Helmet to be bought!!

well first off, you need to remember, not suppose to sell stuff on the 405th, it's against the rules. It isn't difficult to make the helmet yourself you just need to know how to scale correctly and it's trial and error. When i did it i figured my math at 310mm and did a lot of parts rearranging. When I finished my helmet it was way to large. So I looked at the scale it was set at and what I should be at and I came up with a middle number. So usually 285-300mm is where I'm at and that's for someone around 5'8 I think.
Saving isn't a problem on pepakura, you can use the tools to rearrange and properly fit your parts to the page. It just means you'll have more pages to print out in the long run. Everyone has too.

cool now in my opinion, if you're around the same height as me I'd scale that down just a little bit. But if you wanna try the 310, build from the neck up. When you got it all around give it a test fit and that'll give you a pretty good idea on your scale. my Noble Six fits around my head perfectly and that's where I want it. Otherwise when you're doing the rest of the build process, fiberglass, bondo resin stuff like that, you'll have to add a lot of helmet padding to get that to stablize on your noggin.
Good luck man, show off the pics to the board if you ever need help.
