Ryan Hunter Posted November 3, 2020 Posted November 3, 2020 hi everyone this is my first large scale print but it is going well as of now. I have started working on the face shield and visor. Any advice or tid bits are welcome! files used: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3416367
Dart Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Good luck with the print! Just an FYI, if you're going for 501st clearance, that helmet may not pass. Even though some of the features are neat, like the vents at the back and nose actually being vents, that's not true to the original Scout helmet. There's also the issue of the visor not having a return edge on the inside. Check this thread out for how all the available helmets stack up:

Before you pick up anything I would check out the helmet thread Dart posted and compare it to the model on thingiverse to make sure. I'd also recommend reaching out to the GML team for the Garrison you'll be joining and get a read from them.
