I sincerely wanted  to post better news than this but I'm afraid my quest to use a "comic accurate"  visor for my Jaster Mereel has ended in failure.  I bought some sweet plexiglass  from my plastics supplier the other day and really hoped that it would make a  great visor.

 

 1) Holy shatner but  this stuff can take the heat.  I hit it with my heat gun on full blast at almost  point blank range for just about 2 minutes and barely got it to bend even a  little.

 

 2) SNAP!   As soon  as I put a bit of pressure on it it snapped like cracker.  

 

 3) I picked up a big  chunk and put in place and checked it out in the mirror.  I could see my face as  plain as day even through effectively 2 layers of plexiglass.  It's almost too  dark to see though but waaaaaay to easy to see my face through.  How am I  supposed to check out the chicks when they can see my beady little eyes?   hahaha

 

 I might try to find  a mirrored red replacement motorcycle visor but for now I'll just go with the  standard dark green face shield. {sigh}
