Good evening!

I started to assembly the pieces! I help me for that with little parts of carton and I re-balanced the forms with filler / withe moldable pasta...

Next I'm going to re-sanding  :o

This looks great.  Can I ask what Pep file you used and also how you worked out the size?

I'm putting together the Pep file from the forum here and it is much more complex than this.  Also I tried to measure inside from ear to ear.  It was 18.8 Cm, This looked like it should fit my wife based on some toy helmets we have.  However now that the helmet is mostly complete it looks like here face is going to touch the visor. 

Her head is a size medium in skate board helmets.  Any advice on size?

This has been such an epic saga of sanding and bondoing and sanding!! I'm so glad that you've gotten to a point where you're nearly done!

Ahahah ahahahaha thanks

I have a little update! I finished the helmet, I made the base for the mold ;)

Now I need:
- resin glass;
- silicon rubber;
- mold release;
- pasta like clay.

What do you think about it?

yes the flip down piece.  I wasn't sure it if is a range finder or what it is called.  Most of the pep files have it in paper, I didn't know if you used the same process as the helmet. 

So you molded it from scratch with clay, good job.

Yes I have pep files of it, but I made it from zero because it's more easy to mold and sanding ;)
