Hey Guys,
I am new to 405th, and this is my first post. My friend and I started making our first helmets together, and we are starting to resin out helmets now, but we keep noticing online, people with these PERFECT folds and therefore perfectly crafted armor. Now I have to say I think we did pretty good for our first try, but both of our helmets are just slightly tilted, and I think this is due to our folds. I am a perfectionist, and I thought we weren't doing a bad job, but like I said our helmets are slightly lopsided. We are definitely going to finish these helmets, but I was just looking for some tips, hints, and tricks that would help make our pieces nice and crisp in the future. Also I was curious to see if anyone had any preferences over a specific glue or adhesive for the pepakura stages of creating the helmet. We found this glue at my job that dries in about a minute or two, but I figured I would see what some other people might suggest. Thanks for all of your help!
