A combination of fans and putting Rain-X Anti-Fog on the interior of my visors has worked fairly well for me. Same as Coreforge said it doesn't completely stop the visor from fogging, but it's less of an issue.

Not to overstep, but basically the forum admin here won't talk about anything that's airsoft related. Admin just posts that thing about not using armor for airsoft and hopes you will drop it.
As nearly as I can tell, you're basically asking if it's ok to buy the kit and paint it/ do decals, weathering, etc. That would be perfectly fine, so long as you never talk about it with regards to airsoft.
We have a lot of people who build from kits here on the forum and occasionally you will see people refinishing purchased props and whatnot.
There's no rule that says you have to build everything from scratch.

A few things you also need to work on....
1) get a metal ruler, your lines will improve greatly when using a ruler as a guide when cutting the foam.
2) keep your blade sharp. That will prevent the foam from tearing. It will give you a smoother and cleaner edge. Get a blade sharpener from Home Depot, Amazon....where ever.
3) #1 and #2 will improve with time and more experience. You are doing great, just keep going. You will see the difference between your very first piece against your most current piece....It will amaze you.
