To be honest, MOST of the time I'm very unimpressed with fan made helmets because they are usually less accurate than I'm interested in or just poorly made but I am really impressed by this one. I would have never in a million years guessed that was cardboard! And you got it a lot more accurate in appearance than most fan made helmets too! Kudos on the amazing build! That is totally cool.

Sometimes necroposts are a good things as stuff like this tends to get buried and it looks amazing and i'd never have guessed it was cardboard.

I am so sorry it took so long to reply. Sadly, I no longer have any of the patterns I had hand drawn. I didn't have a computer at the time, so there are no files that have been saved.

The helmet is awesome, but would love to see a write up on how you made the rocketpack with cardboard and craftfoam.
