I'm planning to make a Halo Reach Scout helmet with pep. At what stage should I try to put the visor? And what would be the best way to attach it to the helmet?

[TheHeroTutorials]

@SolidSoundwave you should size up the visor early on to match up the opening. I suggest installing it after you paint it. unless you want to do it before painting , but you'd have to go through the trouble of masking it up with tape. I use hotglue to install a visor. I made a Mark VI Spartan helmet before and didn't have a problem with that.

me and my friend wanna make the whole suit out of foam, i was just wondering, wouldnt it be hard to fold the flaps if we were to use foam?? i mean its going to be quit thick so how would we do that? and if you have a video about it could you send me a link please?

[TheHeroTutorials]

@NEMZOOO I already have a tutorial up. You should check the videos in my channel.

I've followed your vids for months and always see you comment on stuff in therpf.com your work is incredible. Think you'll be making a video on how to make mold soon?

[TheHeroTutorials]

@doinurmomsz thanks man, I try to help out as much as I can from what I know. I will be making molding videos soon if there is enough interest. Just need to finish the foam tutorial. I have to do it over as I'm not happy with it.

@SolidSoundwave i know this comment is old and u probably found out your answer but i am doing that same helmet and i would say to put the visor in after you have resined,used fiberglass cloth, and have used bondo. Do it b4 u piant

Hi Stealth! you probably get asked this all the time but what scale would you use, roughly for a guy 5'8" 165 lbs? for Iron Man pep files...thanks! awesome work man!

someone should laser cut this on metal sheets and weld them together...I wonder how much would a metal armor be worth...
