Graverobber's Quest To Making The Mc Helmet

[Graverobber]

Hey! It's Grave, what's up?

Alright, let's get to the point.

Yeah, it's me Grave, making some MC armor. So, what better to start off with but the helmet? So, my Great Journey to become the "Demon" as said by the Unggoy (Grunts), has started.

This is my first attempt at actually completing my helmet. I am only 12. At that age it's hard to find time to fiberglass with a dad that travels every week and a mom that has no experience and has a brain as rotten as Ling Ling's head.

Here's some pictures of my helmet:

LEFT SIDE-

BACK ANGLE-

BACK ANGLE2-

So, go ahead! CRITISIZE!!!!!!!!!
(Did i spell that wrong?)

spot putty is for cars, painters putty is for wood and other indoor things if im not mistaken. You should have gone to Autozone or something for that.

yes its criticize.

So far it looks really good! Keep up the good work! I'm not sure about the painter's putty... I would think it would work the same as spot putty, but don't take my word for it.

Looks good so far.

Your Pepakura looks very good. However, remember that when you start fiberglassing, you should be using a respirator.

Safety first, especially when parents don't want their children to die young.

WOW! nice.

Just one question, were do you get the stencils for the armour?

It's called Pepakura. It purely papercraft printed on Cardstock.

Have a look at the stickies with Pepakura in them or visit

Looks pretty good for a first attempt. Just one question. Did you use regular printer paper?

 

[Graverobber]

@TwitchFMX8811: I used 110 lb. cardstock. and thanks. its pretty hard for my first try, but it get's easier!

@Viper-Legends: Thanks!

@Droakir: Don't worry. Respirator is my first priority.

 

[Twitchfmx8811]

ok. Good I was just checking . I just saw some warps on the curved pieces and normally that associated with printer paper.

 

[Graverobber]

are they major warps?

edit: i notice what you meen. that's because i was trying to test a layer of tack glue on it and i warped it a bit. nothing bondo can't fix!

Just get spot putty Home depot may not sell it. May have to go to your local car supplies shop like Ace or Orally.
And get respirator that stuff hurts my head, I learned the hard way.
