First time trying helmet measurements.

I finally got into printing at Christmas when i got my Ender 3 v3+. I love experimenting with my 3D printer and with different slicing softwares. This is my first attempt at measuring my head and printing a helmet. It is my first time with slicing rings to try and find a fit aroubd head. It is also my first attempt at creating my own supports using software on the computer outside of using the automatic support structures through the Creality app.

I figured it was not going to go to well for me first time out but i'm actually pretty happy with the whole thing. I broke the back off because the head hole was too small, need to slice it and use magnets in the future. But the print itself was good ear to ear and nose to back of head.

Top down though (I get confused by the axis unless I'm playing with then in real time) wasn't great. Too much distance from top of head to top of ears, so I look derpy, lol. It was expected and I can add padding if I really want to. I don't do cosplay and it us just for display so It's not a big deal.

Supports where I put them need to be thinner where they touch and have a better interface because there was a lot of scarring. I also needed to add a lot more than I actually drew in. I was trying to push to see how little I needed and what the capabilities of my printer are. Tons of stringing on the nose and around the upper cheeks. The nose was a "duh" for me after the fact.
