Ok, after a long absence, I am still around and working! The progect was to create the armor from Halo Legends the Package. Using foam and dinner mats from wal-mart i have progressed fairly well. Since i couldnt find ant pep i just made my own Templates from drawings based on watching the CG. Still a little rough, but please, let me know what you think.

I commend you for being able to do this without pepakura. I too tried to do Legends armor and it kicked me pretty hard so i switched to doing mark V.

It turned out fantastically so far. The patterns seem pretty darn accurate to my memory of Legends (I watched it so many times...). I can't wait to see more. <3

The floral bit on the chest is a nice touch, too. You should keep it when painting. haha

Seriously though, this is looking great for freehand. Holy smokes. Have you done much work like this before? Or you just naturally talented?
