Help russian ww2 helmet

[Benthewander]

I'm doing a cosplay of a cod zombies russian mangler, who is a heavily armored russian soldier and need a Russian helmet, my problem is I'm 16 and I swim in the real helmets, I need a helmet but more kid sized, a bit smaller than the full size, but I also want to keep it light weight... any ideas, I can't seem to find any pep files for one either

You could make one out of Eva Foam, Pick up some of those 1/4" floor mats and check out this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgL_6jWNP2c) on Foam helmets. Its real easy stuff to work with and fully customize-able. If you had some serious time and money get yourself a English wheel and some steel, you could build a real steel one haha.
