Poe Dameron "Blue Leader" Resistance Pilot Helmet

I just recently finished my build and paintup of the Reelprops/ Rocketeer Resistance Pilot helmet. Overall the kit was very clean and easy to work with and the decals were top notch. I'm very pleased with the result. Thanks for looking!

Well done !

Did you need to anything to bend the bottom opening? I have one that I have not trimmed yet. The opening looks too narrow to fit over a normal sized head.

What kind of adhesive did you use?

Great paint and weathering!

I recently had to "adjust" a Star Lord helmet. I used a heat gun and a physical object to spread the sides out. Only takes a min or so of heat and let it cool with the device (wood block or rod, or anything really)push the spots away and it is good to go.

I didn't do any bending on the helmet. The cheeks are supposed to be tight on the face but the helmet is deep enough that getting it on and off isn't really a problem. Everything is put together using Zap-a-gap CA glue and a spray accelerator.
