Hello again 405th I've been working on a kinda "secret" prodject the past weeks now. This was originaly going to be just a Ben Carmine helmet build for the Gears 3 lunch. But since school hates me I didn't finish it in time. So I thought that I'd just make this my 2011 Halloween costume

(Sorry for the bad image quality)

Hurray for foamies

Stay tuned the upcomming weeks for more If I don't get too much homework

And for those who follow my ODST build, no worries. I haven't quit the build. It's just put on hold until I get enough money to mold the helmet

Thanks for your time!

Jico

Sure I just need to finish unfolding it. The chest pepakura file I already have is pumped with model errors and the unfolding is horrible So I re-ripped the Carmine model from gow 1 and cut out the chest piece. Stay tuned

Btw, a little update on the helmet. I'm currently looking for two visors for it. Why two you say? Well, here is why. I need one mirrored and colored. Ill glue the two together with a little space between them and wire up LEDs in the gap between the two. The light of the LEDs will bounce off the mirrored visor out trough the colored visor. I will cut out a piece of foam to get the eye shape light effect. I don't know if it will work as I hope, but it is worth a try

Thanks for your time

Hey, did you have any trouble building this file? because i built it 2 days ago, but it appears to be more narrow than it should =/

Oh, by "This File" i meant the helmet...
