What started as a blaster build project has now expanded into a full suit of Mandalorian Armor... Funny how that happens.
For said armor, I am going to be working with Sintra (Expanded PVC) sheets. However, I have never worked with it before. I know it can be formed with a heat gun, and cut with a saw or (slowly) with an exacto knife. What I don't know is what adhesives, or solvents, work best with it. I already plan to use rivets for the body plates, as they don't need to attach to each other.
My issue is in assembling the helmet, which will be made up of multiple pieces of shaped Sintra, attached at the edges. Formed around a tactical helmet.
Any suggestions as to how to put the helmet pieces together would be greatly apricated. Thank you ^_^
