That's tough. I'm only really seeing these three colors, there might be a 4th lighter color but It's totally up to you if you wanted to include that. Personally, I'd roll with the duo-tone haha. I'd say the 4th color would be diminished returns for sure.

Thanks to you both! Totally agree. I experimented last night on some fitment changes to make things look better, but I still wasn't happy. I'm committed to making a new one atm. I'm using this as an opportunity to remodel some of the shoulder pad and make some better templates. I like the way...

Thanks! I was actually looking at your reach build from a few years back when I was planning this one. It looks sharp! Moving forward with the build... I am looking for some scale feedback! I recently built my bicep armor and a shoulder pad. I think I may have scaled them too large. I'm not...

I'd start with 8-10mm, or about 1/2". Anywhere near that range should be fine. As you get better, you can get thinner stuff for detailing.

This video will teach you how to do foam unfolds. This, in my opinion, is one of the best techniques to make templates out of. If you get stuck I'm happy to help but I think it best if you give it a shot first. Practice with some cardboard first. When you're ready, move onto foam. PunishedProps...

I’ll take a look later today after work. If i can’t find any, I can make a foam unfold for you.

Bicep update. I started out with a foam unfold that I found in the armory. I took a crack at building that one but wasn't happy with how things were looking, I think the other model was more intended for papercraft. So i ended up remodeling it in blender, correcting some inaccuracies, and...

Foam is life! I love the stuff. Some people are very good with it. I'm a little rusty. A great medium, though. Definitely worth giving a second shot!

Looking sharp so far! Interesting choice 3D printing the under armor for the torso. Do you think it’ll be comfy?

Hi all! Been lurking for a bit, wanting to get back into halo stuff for a while. I'm notoriously bad at finishing projects so I'm posting here for some accountability. But I also just wanted to share some progress i've been making on some armor. This is my first time making a suit in several...

I love this. Great modeling so far, too. I wonder if it would be possible to deviate from 3D printing and utilize some carbon fiber? If the main concern is weight (and especially weight long reaches, like at the tip of a barrel, which definitely makes the weight feel exaggerated lol) carbon...

This looks lovely. Amazing work.

There’s a bunch of great tutorials from Blender Guru on Youtube. I wish there were better ways to learn than just watching a bunch of videos, and generally sinking the time to learn but the first step is usually to just get out there. Get comfortable modelling stuff, and go one small project at...

Super interested in participating in this project/party. HotPockets, Ive got a fresh gallon unit of mold star 30 that’s just sitting in my basement that i can toss in to the party if it helps. I’m willing to help in other ways, too. Just lmk. And my vote is Anubis

Quality craftsmanship, very professional! Great work and thanks for the tut!
