Learn how to size a helmet for pepakura and you can use this method to size the rest of your armor. Watching a lot of cosplayers, the really great ones are quickly building without patterns and models. Before you can freehand some original foam armor in time for a movie premier opening, you’re gonna have learn the basics.
I learned most of what I know about pep from the 405th Infantry Division. It is a fantastic community and I highly recommend you go to the source. This mostly a post so in case I forget, I don’t have to dig around again.
This only works in Pepakura Designer. If you have a locked file, or only have Pepakura Viewer- this isn’t going to work.
Part One: Measuring the model.
Pepakura Helmets: Hey,I make lots of things, out of allsorts of materials,but recently ive done a few helmets,I've done a few at different skill levels and I thought I'd share a few of the pepakura lids I've made over the last year, people have been asking about what. In that last set of pic's the middle one, was that a dark trooper? Pepakura Star Wars Armor And Helmets. The one exception is the Predator Link down below which the 2 pep files for the helmets which are in the rar belong.
Open your file in Pepakura Designer.
At the bottom of the 2D Panel you’ll see the total measurement in centimeters.
Click both ends of the opening you’re trying to measure.
With both of these measurements you can start determining if this is going to fit your head.
Part 2: Wait, how big is my head?
