Hello everyone , im new to 405th but ive heard very good things about it. Ive managed to find pep files for an ironman helmet and ive managed to put it all together. Heres where the problem is, the paper i used to print out my helmet is printer paper (flimsy, and weak) and is not strong enough to create a mold. Ive devised a plan and i need insight to see if it "could" work or alternate ideas. Heres the plan.....everything is holding up pretty well but, to make my melmet stronger to make a mold, i bought some "BONDO: Fiberglass Resin" from autozone to hopefully put 2 or 3 coats over the whole helmet in order for it to get the edge i need then, after it dries, sand down where needed etc etc, then make a mold using either latex or silicone. Now what can i use to reinforce my mold? thats also where i need advice, please 405th help this noob!
