(French) Salut, Wolf 339. Je parle un petit français. Quand vous assemblez les morceaux, vous pourriez trouver des rebords où les morceaux rencontrent. Vous pouvez réparer facilement ces connexions après vous appliquent la résine au casque extérieur.

(English) Good day, Wolf 339. I speak a little French. When you assemble the pieces, you could find edges where the pieces meet. You easily can repair these connections after apply you the resin to the helmet exterior.

thanx but my probleme here is i can't pass my head you think i rebuild the helmet and the chest or i less change ?

You can trim the inside ring so it would be a little larger for your head to pass through. I had to do the same thing to my helmets. The helmet will fit you once you trim the inside. Like this (see picture):

I hope this helps. Good luck.

I know how you feel. I really don't like assembling the pepakura pieces, but you want it to be perfect, right? I managed to scale my helmet so that my head fit through the underside, but then it looked too big - almost comical. Maybe my head has a weird shape. I brought it back down to the original scale (I made from using formula suggested in the forum) and opted to trim away the underside. I still have ample space for padding and the proportions look correct.

Good luck, though.

Just try shaving/cutting some of the paper around the neckholes till you get your head through. Most of us had to make some adjustments to the pep model :]

thanks

 

[Amiral]

sorry but i would like how you fix the armor on you body ? you use what ?

Cut the armor at the waist on the side and at the top. That is how most do it. You will need to put buckles in to put them back together.
