Should I add the visor detail?

[ImperialWalker]

I am working on the Jesus S Scout trooper and nearing the end of the priming stage. On the original helmets there was a bit of plastic used to fuse the two halves of the visor. 

I am wondering what your thoughts are on adding this detail even though it is not required.

That plate was added in order to reinforce the join between the two halves of the abs visor. With a 3D printed part, there is no practical reason for you needing to have it.

As you say, it's not required at any level, but if you want to add it for purely aesthetic reasons, then there's nothing stopping you from doing so.

There are several helmet makers who make one piece visors.  We don't hold it against them that there are no reinforcement strips on their visors, even for Level 2.

Just add it . It’s one step towards screen accuracy , which is everyone’s goal.

Fair. I'm still contemplating. I like that it is accurate to the originals, but I do like the clean look in a way.

None of the OT costumes are about looking clean. The entire “we found these parts in a trashcan” aesthetic is part of the charm.
