Oh my LORD this looks incredible!!! Those new pouches look phenomenal, and I love the new Mk. V shoulders! Amazing work, Frosty!

Thanks! I'm working on up to 4 configurations and these additions were the bulk of the work since the other two will only add something to the back.

How is the weight with the weapons on your back? I would be worried about feeling a little back heavy and having me a bit of balance

There is definitely a noticeable difference and I'm being extra perceptive to any shifting of weight in case something falls but it doesn't feel back heavy yet. Once I've got the gunners backpack on will be a different story though.

Yeah that I can imagine will feel very heavy. I don’t even know how that could be secured without the risk of it falling off if it is 3D printed

Lol yeah. Fortunately I managed to hollow out the largest portion so it shouldnt weigh more than 6lbs but its part of the reason I have 6 magnets on the back. Really hoping 6 magnets are enough for that beast.

Good luck with that! I'm loving the new armor look and all the weapons! The stanchion in particular is awesome! I might have to print a scaled down version at some point so it is not taller than me lol

If I were to redo it (and I might make another for fun) I'd got for about 85% scale since thats about where I scaled everything else.

Most of the weapons I make at 80% scale since that is my height compared to chiefs. I have too many weapons right now that need work so it might be a bit before I make one

Same, in no official order my build list is looking like so:

New magnum
Legendary machete
Second M7 SMG
Elite and human skull
Reach flag pole
Finish gunners pack
Finish DMR
Turret (Jorge's) detachable and tripod
M23 concept multiple grenade launcher from reach
Smol stanchion
Helmets for friends x2

That's a preview of what's to come. I'll probable moving build threads as I go too just to keep things on topic and neat.

Dang dude, that's a lot! Can't wait to see it all! Also, when you say "gunners pack" do you mean the one that Jun wears?

No no. I mean the HEAVY gunners pack. The big mans rucksack. Jorge's gunners pack.

Ohhhhh, so even MORE printing then! Hell yeah, dude!

Since discord got to see the helmet first, screenshots go here first.

This is basically the configuration I will be submitting for tier 2 deployment since I cant be bothers to make a really good undersuit for tier 3.
