Visor attachment

[Meric0116]

Alright I'm new to making the Spartan armor, pepakura is easy though, CQB helm is done in 110lb cardstock ready to resin, I was wondering when and how do I attach the visor I was going to wait to finish the helm resin/fiberglass is this a good or bad idea? Pics to come eventually

I'm resin and glass it first, then maybe hotglue the visor on, lots of hotglue, it will never come off then, or you could try cocking rubber/concrete, but that stuff expands and shrinks with time...maybe go with hotglue!

you will want to fiberglass and resin it first... After your done painting and sanding I would say is a good time...

My visor will be the last thing to go in, after bondo, prime, paint, holes drilled for LEDs, etc. I really don't want to run the risk of further damaging (already got dremel battle scratches) my $60 investment.
