Halo 3 ODST 1st build for me

[he4thbar]

NOTE: Accidentally posted this in the Colorado meeting thread.

I’m going to be entirely honest. I’m not happy with what I’ve done and wish I had eyeballed everything better as it was coming along. I did my fitment last night. My shoulders are wrong and are too small, the belt isn’t staying up where it needs to be, and my boot covers are far too big. Bicep armor is also too thick and too high up the arm. Ugh...thought I was almost done. Can’t believe I painted this and just now seeing all of this..Can you tell that I’m a noob at this yet? Lol

The only thing that looks remotely okay to me is a profile view up close of the face area lol

Killer ODST you got there, wish my first build came out that well put. I definitely had some symmetry errors compared to you haha.

Well I made a lot of improvements and I like where it’s at now lol I have the most recent pics posted at the end of this thread. I just need to put the nades on my hip armor that I just finished and I’m solid.

Made 11th Recon Shoulders today. Hoping to deploy my build as an 11th Recon ODST. Wish me luck! Hope I can get at least Tier 2 ‍

Helmet is finally finished, concluding my build. Touched up some issues and it’s good to go. Helmet was printed and provided courtesy of Valhalla. Much appreciated bro and I hope your move was smooth.

 

[ODSTWolf1013]

Well, I finally suited up with the final looks of my build and even submitted my deployment application. Wish me luck guys and gals. 11th Marine Force Recon ODST completed.

Good luck with deployment!!

That suit is a thing of beauty she is!

 

[ODSTWolf1013]

Thanks man! Appreciate you following the thread and being supportive! Hoping to get Tier 2 at least but that may be ambitious with my first personal build/deployment. Feet first though right?

Much appreciated my friend! I’m ready to go feet first!

I realized that the 11th doesn’t have grenades after I submitted my application so hopefully that doesn’t knock me. They’re removable lmao

Shh! Don't tell them that!

Shh! Don't tell them that!

Lmao well I’d hope that weapon loadouts wouldn’t affect a rating in general, as I’d assume for any unit or personnel of UNSC, especially ODSTs, had a plethora of different load outs. As long as I wasn’t using a different Gen model weapon outside the designated game (say a Halo 4 Assault Rifle with a Halo 2 Marine), I’d hope I’d be solid lol

Regardless of loadouts the suit looks awesome. Great work!

Your armor looks absolutely incredible! Are you using Noctua fans in your helmet?

Much appreciated! And yes sir they are! Love the noctuas. They’re worth the money as they are super silent.

You absolutely nailed this suit. Especially the bulkiness of it.

For now i have a thread to comb through for information

Thanks Hein! Means a ton! If you have any specific questions, don’t hesitate to ask my friend

 

[ODSTWolf1013]

It’s official guys! And I didn’t do this alone either. I had a ton of help from TillXValhalla. TurboCharizard came in clutch like he does for many and assisted with details, and everyone that followed the build to help with critique and just enjoy the ride. I want to thank each and every one of you guys that took this journey with me and watched my suit turn into what it is. Representing Mountain Regiment out of Colorado! Feet first into hell!!
