Breastplate - stage 1 part 1 + Helmet update

This might look a little odd, and currently not much like Hrist's breastplate, but I can assure you it is taking form slowly but surely. I still have to work out how to get the surface smooth and without lumps etc. I can find Gesso from Liquitex to get rid of the tiny squares that cover the entire surface of Wonderflex, but it's the bits that seem to keep getting lumps on the surface that I need to cover so it doesn't show when painting.

Take a look - Breastplate stage 1 part 1

I have also added more to the helmet.
1.) Helmet - stage 1 part 2 (side)
2.) Helmet - stage 1 part 2 (back)

Tiling grout/wall adhesive was added and sanded to build the helmets rounded shape (filling in dips and uneven areas of the surface), and then with more papiermache over the top.
