Hello everyone - new guy here. This is my first time making a cosplay, let alone a foam armor. I've done some papercraft and miniature painting in the past so I feel like I've got some skills that will transfer but I'm looking forward to giving this a shot.
Anyway - I figured the best place would to to hit up a tutorial and came on Andrew DFT's templates. Three bucks later and I'm helmet building for the first time. I finished my first piece and wanted to follow all the way through to painting first.
Anyway, the helmet came out a little ... lopsided? Any suggestions on how to even it up at this point would be good to hear. I tried to heat gun it and shape it some more to even it up, but no dice. I'm considering just living with it until I finish the build and then come back and get another helmet made once I've got more experience? Worst case the kiddoes have a sweet helmet. Anyway - advice would be great!
