[QUOTE="Buckethead, post: 3627805, member: 136817"] Good work, keep at it. You SODA looks like a better size than mine. I pepped it so my head would fit through the bottom and its quite huge. Yours looks like you can do an iron man-esque cut for a rear opening. I ended up losing a fair bit of the pep detail as well. Sometimes it's best to just go with it and modify. My supports around the visor area lost the most detail and are now basically smooth. Also what I learned is that if parts of the helmet are straight and smooth after you harden, you don't have to add filler on the outside (or maybe just a skimmed very thin layer, as you only have to sand it back down again). Also a piece of metal, or a spare bathroom wall tile in my case, can be used as a palette to mix the filler on, the excess can then just be scraped off into the bin :) [/QUOTE]
