• Download Pepakura Image viewer (http://www.tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura-en/ )

• Open the files in Pepakura and Print the images on Cardstock/thick paper
• This part takes awhile, cut out all the pieces with scissors and a hobby knife.
• Once they are all cut out begin to glue them together using superglue.
• I used Locite Superglue gel control and Locite professional liquid superglue because is hardens so fast.

Very nice!
But, I think the helmet was designed for a bigger frame, it doesn't look like a girl's helmet and clashes with the rest of the outfit by being a bit over-sized.
