Design Your Pattern.
design your pattern. in the pics i show the pieces and how many are needed but keep in mind that there are two sides of your helmet. ok once you have all of your pieces glue them all along the front seam. then spread them apart and put a thick bead of glue along the inside so it stays spread apart.
Connect Uper and Lower Jaw and Crests
now once all your seams are glued and shaped connect your upper and lower jaw with hot glue. then attach the upper and lower crests also using hot glue.
Attaching the Spikes
now fold together the spikes and attach with hot glue.
Bondo Time
now using a putty knife plaster bondo all over the whole helmet (follow directions on can)and let dry then using 100 grit sand paper sand entire surface.
Paint!!
now put a base of black all over then silver all over then more black and antique gold till this look is achieved.
