yeah i dont think you used good 3d files or else it would have turned out right .... like ojrtega said it will warp with a resin coat

 

[ojrtega]

that might just be a home made model thats why it looks weird

it is paper but its got a cardboard frame

 

[ojrtega]

ok but i suggest fixing the shape before fiber glassing the thing

hmmm.. its out of shape alot but even though you got a cardboard frame on it go easy on the resin because it is paper build up in steps with amount of resin you use otherwise it will warp......alot

I agree with everyone, if you resin your helmet.. It will just collapse under it's weight during the process.. Also, you may not be able to put it back on your head... Goodluck!!

Granted, it looks a lot better now, so much luck on the resin/glassing.

Also, what was in pic 4?
