John-117: Do not ask for free stuff. If you actually looked through the thread you can see we found a dealer for fatigues. We haven't found out a solution for a vest. And I made a shinguard tutorial.

Those are really nice pics of the helmet but what materials do u need to make the helmet?

 

[Damien]

again, how do you want to make it

 

[hapakid88]

i have to completely agree with adam. vacuum form just...idk its kinda flimsy and cheap (looking) sometimes.

 

[FinAeros]

The easiest way will probably be pepakura.

Try starting here:

If you really want to do a mold, I'd suggest starting there and adding a layer of something like Magic Sculpt to smooth the armor before using it either as a positive mold or to make a negative mold from it.

After that, Vacuum forming is probably one of the cheaper ways to get everything done. It just takes a home brewed vacuum table (directions are available at a number of places online, I can't find my bookmark ATM), some styrene sheets (or a tougher material), and patience. Lots of patience.

Really? I thought the helmet was supposed to be made with paper mache am i right ares?
