Hi all,
It is Sept. 17th and my 10 yr. old says he wants to be Emile....does anyone still play Reach? just kidding.
Anyway, I feel a bit overwhelmed right now since it looks like I will need to build a helmet from scratch and possibly vacu-form a visor.
I have built simple armor out of eva foam, but I have never done pep or a visor.
I have used pep file and modified them, or briefly used them for sizing....but never a complete pep helmet with the hardener and fiberglass.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get the visor shape without pep? Start with a basketball lump of plaster and sculpt for the base shape?
I haven't seen any diagrams for the skull, do I do that free hand?
Any ideas will help.
Thanks,
Dan
