I've always loved the BR55. Can't wait to see how it looks finished up!

Thanks, man! Even with the design liberties I took, I stayed 90% accurate to the game.

Alright guys. This will probably be the last update before i complete the rifle and post the finished product. Most of the paint is done!
What is left:
- Finish the barrel
- Ammo counter (make it and wiring)
- Mounting the scope (placed for pic)
- Remaining paint & further detailing

Wow just came across this thread, and I gotta say that is some amazing work. The details are flawless especially on the scope but yeah looking good so far, cant wait see it with the barrel!

Thanks! Glad i went with the custom route for the scope. Ties it in better than a look-alike scope off ebay, being accurate and all. I have a few designs for the barrel currently. Deciding between PVC pipe cut into the shape, or a transparent tube with foam built around it to give the illusion of the prongs/flashhider.

It looks really good now that it isn't lego-colored I'm hoping to finish my H2A br blueprint in the next few weeks, so I can hopefully start working on mine. I'm interested in seeing what you come up with for the ammo counter. Will it be static or will it actually count?

I couldn't find any blueprints for this! I eyeballed the whole thing. Haha. Thats usually what i do for everything i build anyway. The counter's going to be static. I dont care much for it being so sophisticated. Aslong as it lights up, and looks accurate, we're good to go.It looks really good now that it isn't lego-colored

I can't do builds without blueprints. I just need some form of direction to get it going :/

Looks great with paint mate. You do have a suit to match it, right?

I enjoy drawing a rough sketch first and then measuring everything into proportion! To each his own, man.

Sure do! Finishing up my MkV from Halo:CeA!

Hey guys. I was watching a Halo video just now and saw the Halo 2 style BR55 with a flashlight under the barrel, like how the Halo 3 BR has that second gastube under or whatever. What do you think? I'm digging the way it looks, but i need a little more input before i start chopping. Considering im pretty much done with the rifle. Let me know! Would it be a good addition?

I think it looks pretty cool, but I wouldn't say it's worth the time to add. If you don't mind I'd say go for it, but otherwise, I wouldn't say there's any reason to go out of your way to add it.

Would be a cool addition, wouldnt take to long to add... Your choice.

Outstanding! The simple additions to the scope give a nice completion to the profile. And the rivet's and bolts give a superb realism.
