Hey all, nice to finally join the forum instead of lurking for a few months :lol
I have to say thanks to evilFX because his guyver suit is what got me into this stuff. :thumbsup

Anyway, this is my first ever pepakura and my first real build. wish me luck
pep made and I just applied a coat of resin to the helmet.
I'll upload some pics tomorrow when I'm finished with the fiberglass.

Ok so I've just finished the fiber glassing for a first time it went pretty well.
Now for some pictures;

pep stage of the helmet;

and with resin

Freshly fiber glassed

sorry if the pictures suck, I think I'm probably the only person who doesnt own a camera so all my shots will be with my phone :/

just a quick update..

Fiberglass has hardened and I'm ready to bodge ( bondo ), I would work on it through the night but I'm off out, so I'm gonna make an early start on it tomorrow and see how it goes

 

[FloatingFatman]

just writing to say im working through some personal issues and i probably wont update for a few days, if anyone was looking into this build (which i doubt) sorry.

Looking good, welcome to the RPF. Best wishes on your personal issues.

Have you visited the 405th? They're a Halo-specific group, and you'll probably get more feedback on your helmet there.

I can't tell, but did you fiberglass the inside or outside? The pep looks good though!
