The original Pep.
You'll notice:
A: its 100% a yoga mat.
B: this is my very first attempt of this type of project. (never built a foam anything!)
The below image is of weeks of filling and sanding.
After research, my jaw and chin where not long enough.
Also, the brow just wasn't playing ball.
So I decided to laser cut the original Pep file on .5mm styrene.
I cut off the front of my original helmet and stuck my new styrene front.
Resulting in a better front altogether..
I've filled the helmet with foam, to strengthen the entire unit.
A small test of my vacuum former for the ear parts (these are not accurate! merely a test for size and my machine)
