After lurking the forums for the past month reading every possible tutorial I decided to give the mkVI a try. Its Robogenisis' mk VI. Its nice looking but a little difficult since I was in such a rush to start this project I didn't grab the proper tools. I used scisors for cutting and super glue to stick it together. I didn't use the scoring method with a ruler or even mark the paper with reb/blue lines. I used a CD case to make folds because it was the the only thing I had laying around in my room that was stiff enough to make folds. My next helmut (Fly Squirels HD MKVI) I will definatly buy an exacto knive and a ruler.
This picture is the helmut after it was assembled, no resin. I just resined it yesterday and this is where I found out its better to have strong cardstock. I will go online and buy some 110 lb cardstock to prevent my next helmut from warping. This helmut took a little dip in a few areas so I will have to make something to prevent it from warping more when I fibergalss it. I wish I had a digital camera to show you more pics but I dont so this is from my Cellphone. Sorry for the overexposure.
