CASUALTY

Whilst stumbling in the dark, trying to turn the light on. I tripped over my helmet inflicting the damage you see on the helmet and even more on my heart. Not to mention, my damn foot is bleeding.

help?

Is the rim broken and cracked?

Maybe can try re-enforcing the part from the back and then sand down a bit the right side and putty it, then repainting the area?

Somehow I keep thinking of duct tape for re-enforcing the back like what I try to do to my IRG Helmet while waiting for the day I got the mood to try to fix it. Nah, not recommended as you need something hard to re-enforce.

Next time, remember to keep your armor inside its container.

I suppose your foot has been taken care of.

I suppose you can lay a strip of styrene from inside the helmet as the 'foundation' to cover the area that cracked off. Then putty over the cracked area, wait for it to harden, sand and paint. You may also want to reinforce other cracked areas. Last thing you need is the helmet falling apart during trooping, revealing your face ala Jet Li in The Mummy 3.
