its depend how many layers you'll add to it, if you use the cloth on the inside maybe 2 layers

 

[Roxas Halo GOD]

ok but will 2 layers make it at least a lil sterdy and still be able to stretch it out so i can fit my head in?

do you have a pic of the bottom of the helmet? you might trim some of it off

 

[Roxas Halo GOD]

That doesn't really help us. Can you get a picture of the rim of the helm where you put your head in.

 

[Roxas Halo GOD]

ill try to find a pic of that but i just painted my helmet black

Just cut off the parts of the opening that you don't need. I did it on mine, and it worked fine.

the helmates are slightly bigger then you might have thought. maybe make a new one

If I were making one that's probably what I would do....

Less of a "bobble head" type appearance.
