1st Build Which helmet should I build first?

[TriAngulum]

Last summer I attempted to 3D print a Grenadier (Jorge's) helmet, but it came to a halt when I ran out of filament, and I forgot the specific scaling value I was using by the time I got more. I have about half of the helmet (entire back and lower half of the front) still sitting on my desk, and I was thinking that this summer I would try again. Here's where my question comes in. The Grenadier helmet is my favorite but the EOD is a close 2nd (both the reach versions btw). The pros and cons of each version is as follows:
Grenadier Pros:

• Favorite helmet
• I already have half of the helmet, and I already own the files.

Grenadier Cons:

• The visor is big and curved (this is my first build so I want it to be simple)
• I do not remember the scaling value I used, so there's a chance that the new parts won't fit with the old ones.

EOD Pros:

• 2nd favorite helmet
• Smaller visor
• I would write down scaling values to not have any issues like the last one

EOD Cons:

• I would have to purchase new files for the helmet
• Not the one I use in game

So with that, which one should I pick?

Personally - I always recommend dong the helmet last, not first. That way you can build up skills over the rest of your armor before tackling the beauty part.

So I tend to post this response to the common or Frequently asked questions when people ask on the various social media channels. I copy/paste it to Facebook, or the Discord server and some folks urged me to post it here and just link it in the future. Ok, here goes. These are my tips and how...
