You can see that I had great luck with compound curves in this blog post... MTK's Card Craft: 1:1 Cylon Helmet

Finished up the design of the canopy this evening.
I will start developing the patterns tomorrow.



Neptune,
I have checked out your builds and I am impressed with the construction techniques.
I do appreciate your comments but I am really enjoying doing this construction in this way.

What you have so far looks really good.
I will be following this thread.

[Racer]

Thanks Rhaven.
And I really like your sig. I could not agree more.

Well, I'm fond of say..."There's more than one way to skin a Starship.." So, more power to you. May the Force be With You!
