I can't for the life of me figure out what to use for the visor of the helmet, so anyone got any ideas of what I could use to make the visor? |

A Zero cosplayer that I saw used some sort of weird and whacked out glass thing that he could see out of, but others couldn't see in. If you tried to look in, you'd see a curved blue reflection of yourself, like looking in the back a spoon.
I can only think of molded semi-transparent blue plastic so that it has a curve like in Zero's helmet, and hot glue it into the helmet. You've done Aaroniero, you can pull off Zero! __________________ Katsu no wa Hyotei~♥ |
