i'm gonna put the lenses in after the paint dries fully
This helmet does look good, but I must suggest some constructive criticism, so do not take it personally. The resin, prime, sand, repeat process is to remove the sharp edges or "polygon" looking shapes in order to make the helmet look smooth. If you didn't do this step or did not repeat it multiple times, I would suggest that you resin, prime, sand multiple times to remove sharp angles. Good luck on the rest of your armor.
Am I the only one who noticed that he just made a pep build, and painted it? (Sorry to sound harsh) but there is no bondo, resin, fiberglassing going on there, just straight paint on cardstock.

ahh k thanks. I'm still having trouble deciding which blue I want to use. I currently sprayed my handplates with Krylon True Blue gloss, after it dried it looked fine I just don't know so much about the gloss. I also bought Oxford blue but I think it's a little too dark.

I actually used frost's hot glue method on the inside and resined the outside. (cough cough)
And you guessed it, royal blue, I got it from a friend so i don't remember much else about it.
