Halo 3 - Custom High Detail Models

[flying squirl]

isnt it amazing?!! ive definitely not seen anything like that done for video games before. it beats the crap outa the official halo game play show reel IMHO.

----------

sorry about the lack of updates but just to let you know im currently editing the second last Mrk V WIP video. it wont be as long this time and ill have the model finished in the next vidjo.

any problems, gimme a shout

FS

EDIT:
i think I've figured out a fool proof way of getting the torso to fit you. but i need a hand, i want you all to tell me what width the base of your sholders is (see pic). i want to figure out a maximum and minimum sorta thing for here and then i can do it in no time. oh and centimeters are preferable considering that's what pep uses but if you cant, no worries, i can convert em.

the measurement you should be taking is this one:

oh and yes, that is King Leonidas, i thought it would be fitting. (pun not intended)

Attempting your chest piece FS, wish me luck, neck area is done, I didnt use the tester, but I guestimated the scale and it looks good with my original HD helmet.

I just measured my old chest's height in CM, added a few more CM and put that as my height for scaling.

hey man good luck with that. Just remember to take your time on it. And be sure to post some pics to show how its going.

 

[Shorion]

base to base I'm 39cm sooo... about a 43cm height? would that be a good guess FS?

man, a 24 base to base, radioactivemicro bust be tiny!

Attached a file too of my suit so far. most of it I'm holiding, belts not there coz it falls down haha woops. the chest is the tester model at origional scale and my base to base of my shoulders is like 39 so its really small on me lol. most the parts are 68 scaled, the feet are 74 the head is the same as the origional file and so's the chest

Datahar - theres a pic of someone who's put their helm in front of like 4 heat lamps lol in his shed. I was like zomg is there a helm on the floor there? just to much light to see anything arrhhhh

 

[RadioactiveMicrobe]

I wouldn't say tiny, just a tall and scrawny 13 year-old.

WHOA! I just got the HD torso printed and WOW is there a lot of small pieces with overlapping numbers... Lol no one's fault, just lots of close folds. And by the way, I'm almost 16 and since I guess I don't work out, from the outside edge of my left shoulder to the outside edge of my right, it's around 18". And everyone in my grade is about the same. Flying Squirrel, I know you already gave me my scale, just saying in response to Shorion. Not everyone can be the MC ya know!

 

[AoBfrost]

Get 2 Sweat shirts or a pressure suit and your arms and chest will look like the chief's.

 

[docbytes]

Hope that I finish your torso soon, cuz I really wanna hurry and mount it to my bullet proof vest. You think that might be overkill?

heh, yea, sorry about that. heh, wait till you start on the back. your guna hate me. not everyone can look like the cheif? awww lol

Get 2 Sweat shirts or a pressure suit and your arms and chest will look like the chief's.

and then you can pass out from the heat.

Hope that I finish your torso soon, cuz I really wanna hurry and mount it to my bullet proof vest. You think that might be overkill?

NEVAR! theres always room for bullet proofing! zombie plan? XD

incase you missed it i think ive sorted out a fool proof way of scaling the torso to your body, but i needs guinne pigs and ppl whove build it already and think it fits well to tell me the width between the base of their two arms or the with of their chest. see pic. im workin on a method that'll do this itself but 'durrr, im nut guud at maths me' so it might take a while. in the meen time i might be able to help you get up n running with building it by manualy doing each one.

this is the mesurement i need.

in other news, im guna try finish the mrk V today. im not guna say ill hav it to you by a certin date cuz knowing my luck a truck will hit the power cables or a pig will fall through the roof n i wont get it done. just lettin you know that its nearly finished. n after that ill be back onto the hd MC suit. ill be doin the most popular one in the poll next so if you have a prefrence and you havent voted get voting.

any problems, including scaling for the torso, gimme a shout

Lol when I said not everyone can look like the chief I didn't mean by wearing the awesome armor, I meant their physical height and muscle build. But ya, I wont hate you, it's an awesome pep piece and if it wasn't hard, it wouldn't look awesome in the end.

Sorry couldn't resist.

Oh and once again Space Diaper ftw (after all Robo has done the upper arm )

 

[BlindRascal]

Maybe I'm missing something, but how come I see no text on the tester helm It say's I don't have the required font but it was replaced. But it is clearly a lie!

 

[docbytes]

Here is a pic of your helmet setting on my self. There are a few more pics at the end of one of my topics. Enjoy!

ho ho ho, whats this? it looks like something to watch for about ten minutes while you don't feel like working! second last video of the makin of the hd Mrk V. crits welcome, i cant figure out why it doesnt look quite right. i added a bita Irish culture in the music, see if you can spot it.

its nearly done now, wont be long.

and if anyone sez "omg, whos doin teh copy of matilca? it duznt sound the same" will get a virtual kick in the nuts.

 

[Datahar]

hehe great!
and it really went well with the whiskey in the jar "cover" and yes i know who and what it is, but im not saying for those who dont it rocks tho

and the HD take 1 with added floating faces is still drying, im thinking of taking a blow torch to it but i havent decided.

stupid british weather I pass my test and the sun comes out so i can drive with the roof down but its not warm enough to dry some putty?
