hey everyone, I’m excited to be here.im Zach and I’m from Alabama in the USA. I’ve been a member of the 501st legion for a few years now and want to expand into some of my other fandoms. I’ve loved the ODSTs since the game came out and really dived into their character.
My first steps were to buy Sean Bradlys “Dutch” style helmet with a silver visor and gloves. I’m currently trying to make a sale on another costume to fund the rest so once that goes through I’ll buy the rest from Sean and try to strap it up and paint it myself.
As far as what I’m concered with is obviously the prep of all the armor, what I should do before painting and is their any good spray paints you guys recommend? I’m wanting to go for the dark gun metal grayish look (ODST classic) with dark red accents.
Would love any paint advice anyone can give me!
Also does anyone have intimate knowledge of Sean’s kit? Is it large? I’m 5’6” 150 pounds so I’m not the largest guy around. Do you think I’ll need to mod anything?
Where does everyone get these cool decals or how do I do the wording on my chest plate and that kind of thing?
I’ll sure I’ll have more questions and I do but I’ll leave it at that to get the ball rolling. Glad to be here!
