    Nice build Ted. that helmet pattern of yours is pretty universal. Slight tweaks and its applicable to a whole host of uses from centurion to knight to space alien. Truly evergreen.

    I alternate polarities, so there's only one right way for parts to hold together.

      @itsagundam79 Рік тому +1

      I imagine this works really well for left and right parts, or when you have to put multiples of spikes or other trim onto a costume. Make sure they all sit in the right areas at the right angles. Great tip!

    This is such perfection. I can't wait to get started on this! Knew I needed 8mm foam for something, still gotta pick that up.
    I noticed when you are doing the flat edges of the bottom of the helmet and top of the neck collar, you have to Dremel them down for the flatness to lay on the neck ring. Can you just do the initial cuts at an angle over those areas to simplify it? Or is the angle so miniscule it's not worth it to try? I have a tool called Bev-All that let's me select popular increments of cut angle like 90°, 45°, & down to 22° I think.

    Hey Ted! Thanks for sharing this build! I'd love to try this but am curious a bit more about the first steps. If I purchase the build pattern is it possible to print it from a standard printer, printing on 8 1/2 by 11 paper and get the right measurements? I'm just curious about those first few steps.

      The visor I found was the reason for the helmet build. Without it I couldn't have built the Space Helmet.
