Helmet decal placement

[cdraudt17]

I am putting the finishing touches on my Jesus Salmeron helmet and am getting ready to put on the decals. Is there any specification on exact placement, or do I just eyeball it compared to other helmets?

No specifications as in "3mm to the left, .5 mm to the right."  Eyeballing it should be fine.

Use the Scoutopedia to look at film references instead of other fanmade helmets, though:

How did the decals come out? I’m printing Jesus’ helmet right now and will be looking for decals soon.

So far so good. I picked some up from trooper bay. I ended up repainting the face portion of the helmet, so I haven't put those decals on quite yet.
