I've returned from the void to tell you I did finish my knees and handplates. I'm just really really bad at progress reports.
Here are them knees and handplates as you can see.
Again I haven't detailed or done clean up on anything yet, I'll do all that later in one go.
But wait!
Thats not all! I also finished the biceps!

So this is where I'm currently sitting on the suit and I have used 1 pack of foam (4 sheets)
EDIT: I'd actually used 5.

I'm 3 inches taller and it took 1 sheet just to make the Shin for my ODST.... And I messed that up cuz of my poor scaling skillz. So had to use another sheet for my second attempt.
Girl. You are good.

To be fair ODST shins are huge, I used 1 and a half sheets for my ODST shins, theyre like double the size of the Reach shins

CORRECTION: I've used 5, did some double checking on my materials and I used a loose sheet from my last suit and forgot about it my bad.
So sitting at 5 sheets right now.
My chest is looking like it'll be 2-3 sheets of foam on its own due to the shape of the pieces. Haven't sorted it onto pages yet, still sitting in an exploded view, thats one of todays jobs.
I'm hopefully working on the construction of the forearms, we'll see how I go.

I'm very thin too, my shins and thighs were a 7 page unfold each with large spaces, biceps and forearms fit on 3 1/2 pages each, belt was 5, and one boot fits on 3 pages.

I love how everyone equates their body size to how many sheets of foam it takes to cover themselves with.......I'm 6'3"....So I take up a lot of foam.......

Since we are counting sheets of foam. So far on my build I have used 3 sheets. One for each shin and I managed to cram in a M6C/SOCOM and SMG into one sheet.
Okay. I think we derailed this thread enough. Let us not speak of sheets again. Back to whereisdanielle's excellent build.

I'm almost a foot taller and much wider than you.....scaling has everything to do w/ it.
Then you go by the sheets of paper......

I was having a joke about the helmet hahahaha, speaking of I cant wait to see your suit all finished. Much hype.
Forearms are both finished minus some minor detailing.
Construction of the first forearm and a quick size test:
Second forearm:

Tomorrow I'm going to try and get as much of the boots done as possible, as I've got a busy weekend between a friends birthday, suiting up to raise money for Starlight Week with mawrTRON and Sierra 107, and a family gathering. I'll throw up so pics of Starlight Week on Monday as it should be cool af, as we've got the better half of Blue Team.
