Looks great!!
I got the files and started printing mine but got sidetracked so I did not get it done.
One question though. Did you have to scale the helmet parts any or how was the fit?
Thank you! This was my first large project like this, and there were definitely times when I got sidetracked too.
I scaled the helmet at 98.85% so that it would fit on the bed at 45⁰. The fit works for me with padding that is about 12mm thick. 100% scale probably would have been ideal to provide a little more airflow, but I wanted to avoid glueing and filling seams.
