The flexibility of the helmet after completion is surprisingly amazing. Use the tack spray to coat the entire helmet inside and out for strength. Once the pieces have been joined, the helmet begins to take shape and can be coated. Such a case can be seen in the pic where tape was only used and masked with the two cans of tacky spray glue and coated with two layers of elmers glue.Ī quick aside, the inner eye pieces can definitely be left out for those who wear glasses such as myself. Although a hot glue gun would be more preferable for joining these pieces together. A lot of pieces are large and folded in on each other to be joined by tape. Many small thin pieces can be neglected (such as the inner eye components and cheek parts unless you want EPIC movie quality), it just takes some thought about where to tape what and how to piece the helmet together.
The tabs seen on the print outs can be ignored, just cut along the outer dotted lines and figure it out.
Print out the helmet pieces and cut and tape together as many flat small pieces as possible so that they can be cut out of one solid piece of the craft paper and the folded. elmers glue painters tape cherry red, metallic gold and black paint. tape medium to thick craft paper (i will get the exact type i used later) spray adhesive such as tacky glue. What you will need: very sharp exacto knife.
