Do you remember where you found the thicker foam at the top? Looks great!

Thank you! You have been so helpful. I'll be getting that attached once I get the right punch for it. Lastly, what does everyone's helmet look like on the inside so it sits well on their head? Do you recommend the hard hat insert? I have a pretty small head and it is quite uncomfortable at the moment. Thanks!

Thanks to everyone who has contributed thus far! I think I only have one more task, which is to attach the holster to the boot. Any suggestions on how to go about this? I have my boots from Steph. Thanks!

@Scaryguy thank you so much for all your input. It is very appreciated! What I did tonight was sand down all I could of the devcon and applied bondo overlying the parts that weren't flat. I'll work on sanding that down tomorrow to try to get a more even feel. Fingers crossed!! I also trimmed down a lot of the areas that needed a close trim with a fine-grit sanding dremel tool and then took my 220 grit sandpaper to finish. I mostly worked on the front chest piece and the one of the forearms. I have the before and after for comparison. I also trimmed back the visor and faceplate just a bit to get a more even look. How was my gluing of the faceplate to the visor? I tried to get it as even as possible and I didn't think that I could get both sides perfectly even the way I wanted it. Will it be alright for approval like this or do I need to trim the overhanging part of the visor on the right side? Or should I just try to pry it apart and re-glue?

Today's progress... I ended up sanding down a lot more of my bucket and used the devcon plastic welder. I have a lot more sanding to do still but am starting to grow frustrated. Am I doing this right? I'm using 220 grit to sand down by hand and then I have 400 to finish. I glued my faceplate to the visor today as well, still curing (using e3000). I also caulked my tank today (for a second time as the first did not go as planned). Looks better but have to clean it up. I sprayed the inside of my bucket black as well and ordered some helmet pads for it. Lastly, I trimmed up my forearms. Think these gloves will work? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FM5SYX8/?coliid=I1ND37CL8IAI92&colid=CIGC1IODUBCY&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Thanks everyone so far for the feedback!

@ScaryGuy I did more sanding today to get those edges smooth. Will continue prior to painting. I used just regular bondo but regretted doing so afterwards. I've sanded most of it off and the seam is mostly DevCon plastic welder at this point. Went out and picked up some Chicago screws so will work on getting that screwed together and sanded correctly prior to painting. Thank you so much for your input and your great WIP thread. I've been going off of that a lot.

Here's where I'm at as of starting today. I'm going to sand a bit more, waiting on my paint to arrive. Will start gluing the facemask to the visor (or is it better to paint first then glue as you did ScaryGuy?). Also want to work on getting my chest pieces connected. Thank you for the input, I'll go out and get some of those today! Also will caulk my tank today, too

Saving to attempt to post my WIP pictures once I figure out how posting pictures works on this forum...

Well, brand new at this. Decided to purchase a WTF Rebels Scout back in May and finally have gotten started on it over the past week. Any tips are greatly appreciated! What is everyone using to connect their visor to the helmet?
