this step is difficult but very satisfying when completed.

before you start, glue a large flat piece onto the back of the head that goes all the way down to the bottom of the neck piece. then level out the sides with more pieces of card board. the back should now be flat.

now cut out a bunch of long strips with curved points in the middle of them. one of these is shown in picture 2 after which starting at the bottom of the out side of the frill as close to the bottom of the helmet as you can get. start gluing them on in a curved fashion, going up up the back. this will take a while since there are a lot of these back slates. make sure they curve up to meet the top of the head.

smooth out the sides of back scales where the back scales meet the frill shown as shown in picture 3
