THIS GUY! I saw your helmet before and never commented on it, but I am amazed at the level of perfection you create. Also what are you using for the under suit top I saw in one of your updates? How much did it cost?
Thanks!
Thank you! The undersuit top is right here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0097JUR44/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Its rather expensive and I still don't know if I'll actually use this exact one but we'll see.
Annnnnd the update:
^The above three images are the side details for the thruster packs, wanted to get them out of the way but I haven't attached them yet.
^UNSC resupply airdrop, four more gallons of everglass filler that will hopefully take me all the way through the rest of the project.
^After I finished working on the side details for the thruster packs I jumped back to the front of the torso and worked my way up. You can see the upper part that has primer on it has not been smoothed yet.
More coming at ya soon!

Those mounts look really cool, even though they're slightly inaccurate.
Nice job mate, this is a truly impressive build... even though I've said that a dozen times already.

Hey thanks ask me whatever you like. The visor stencil came from here: http://www.shop.deltaarts.pl/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=403

Pretty sick man great work.
You can use either one, I just prefer body filler because I'm all setup to work with it and I like the durability of filler armor. Now keep in mind I've been using everglass, in my opinion it's in a whole class of its own compared to actual bondo. Everglass contains short stand fibers and kevlar, it won't crack and break like bondo. Also, while you're working it it doesn't run all over like bondo, it pretty much stays put till it sets up.
The grey stuff is just primer, but the dark green/green colored stuff is the filler. Yeah this particular filler seems expensive because it runs 50-60 USD a gallon but when you consider I built the entire helmet out of a half gallon, it really isn't that bad.
Well Im trying to create an accurate Halo 4 SCOUT armor, I plan to build the armor myself but Im a Noob at it so I need to know what my options are. Currently looking into EVA Foam to see if that works, but no one so far has made the appropriate templates for me to use. I can make the Pepakura Model yes, but everything from there is a mystery to me.

Kudos on the details, wonderful paint on the helmet. Looking forward to seeing the rest of this build!

Hey there, i was wondering if youd mind sharing the file you used for you torso.. every file iv come across wasnt game accurate also how you sized your torso is amazing its perfectly scaled. so shedding some light on that to would be great. looking for ward to your reply.
Preferably to jdivona@gmail.com

Long time no see... UPDATE!
I took off and went on vacation to Costa Rica for the past week but now I'm back in the states and continuing work on the torso.
Halovet: I hope that file by AZTLAN I PMed to you is working out for you. It's truly awesome.
JayOneSeven: thanks!
Here's the progress I made right before I left up till now since I've been back, I may have more pics after today as well since I'm actually working on it right now.

Made some progress on a new front:
I started the boots.
This week has been/is looking quite busy for me so I don't expect much progress on the torso until Saturday and Sunday. Hopefully though by the time Sunday night rolls around I'll be left only with smoothing to do and minor detail work next week... Then paint begins! I can't wait to have the torso complete considering I started it in the beginning of August.
Stay tuned.

Made more good progress in the last few days. I finished peping the right boot and got back to work on the torso!

Truckin along with a heck of a torso piece to go with that helmet! It always amazes me how a piece can look so different through each phase of the creation process. Yours is looking so pristine after that primer, it's hard for many to see how much work went into getting it so smooth and sharp. I am so excited to see this go through its many stages and end up at the same level as your helmet.
Congratulations on the Waypoint post; you definitely deserve it!! ^__^
