H4 Chief Scratch Foam Armor Build

TheBradinator · Jun 5, 2012

What up guys!

Sorry about being dormant for a while but I'm back kicken!

Ive been working on this for about a week now and it is a little on the big side on the back, but the front is coming out just fine! I started when there were like 5 reference pics, but now there are tons so i should have no prob doing the rest of the armor. Also the new vids from 343 will keep me motivated.

I purchased a hyper H4 helmet and an amber bubble visor and i think it will look as close to game accurate as any visor will, color wise and shape wise.

Here are some Pics!

Let me know what you think and if you have any questions... I am here to help!

Thanks for checking this build out!

Oh yes, I have a question...
You didn't happen to save any templates did you?

Looking damn fine! Can't wait to see the quality finish.

Nice job man, If you spray a thin coat of Mirror chrome on the back of the visor you will get that goldish chief mirrored visor look but if you decide to try this, practice on some scrap clear plastic before you ruin your main visor, the bubble lens looks great in the helmet, when i built the helmet I had originally intended to install a bubble visor in the helmet but never did, im glad you got one installed in it, also love the foam build its looking great so far, keep up the great job

Scratch builds always amaze me. Good work with the foam.

Hey guys, thank you all for the positive feed back. The only problem With scratch builds is that it's extremely easy to screw up on it and waist foam but is a lot more interisting and it keeps me on the edge of my seat!

I'm sorry guys I dident make any templates for y'all... I probably shoulda but because of the new abundance of ref pics, it's not very hard to go by ear if you know what I'm saying.

Hyper you are the man! I have already done the mirror crome thing and it works so great! Your helmet is a masterpiece!

I am planning on doing some battle damage... I love
My armor looking like it came strait from hell so hopefully it will look beast!

I will be outa town until friday so I will pick it back up then! South Padre here I come!!

Thanks for lookin!

Brad
