Hey, Crackhead, I must say that the new gauntlets look much better and very cool. I'm pretty sure that I'll be using those for my armor build. They have areas with cool details while still being a very managable model. My only concern is that the small valley/indentation shapes on both the right and left side (directly under the elbow piece and under the geometry across from that) might be a bit too small for practical pepping. If you could make those a bit wider/bigger, I think it would make the job a bit easier. Also, it seems that on the indentation on the left (with the elbow closer to you), some verts need to be merged (the red line), or else Pep wont create tabs for that line. Aside from those tiny details, I'm lovin this model and I'm gonna add it to the main post, along with your thigh model (which I actually haven't gotten a chance to look at yet)

im just wondering if u would like to add some pieces to that.I not sure if u want to remake the hip plates since they look(for the most part)like the Weta version,Mickeys left shoulder pad,and the helmet attachments,Bucks and Mickeys

sorry about the double post but i some refs of Romeos Sniper Goggles,they arnt the best resolution but its the best i could do.
well i hope they do some good,AND i have a suggestion if Nightshade is goin to model the pieces on the side of the goggle that are holding it onto the helm,i think it would be best if u didnt conncet them to the eye piece so we can adjust it to fit out helms,so it would be in 3 pieces

on the rookie's shoulder, is the top part (circled in the picture) meant to rest on the shoulder, as in your should would go into the inside of the plate reather then the whole thing sticking out of your shoulder?
Also, does anyone have a diagram of how to connect all the should pads (including the triangle thing) to the armour? AND I'm about 5'11", should I scale the shoulders to about 270-280?

Woo! Another forearm! No offense to f3tt man, but compared to this, his forearm wasn't entirely accurate and it was a pain in the butt to pep due to it being so cylindrical. Anyway thanks for making this! Looks great.
Also, the backpack HAS been done by f3tt man, but the modelling isn't 100% accurate IMO. I pepped the middle section and that looked alright, then after I pepped one of the side parts, I feel the side parts were just too big in relation to the middle part. I'll post up a pic tonight of what I mean, maybe get everyone else's thoughts on it.

Couldn't tell you about your first question, I'm still trying to figure out how I'm gonna rig all my stuff too =\
but for your second question, if you look a couple of pages back there is a little discussion on the correct size. At 5'8, I scaled mine to 280mm and I think it looked good. You're a little taller, maybe 290mm?

Hey Harding, thanks for those pics, man. Yes, those should be of great help to me.
And Rvb18, lol sorry about the first post, I'll have to fix that.
Progress Report: Finished pepping the first shoulder (I don't really know if it counts as a shoulder now. By the looks of the pics, it seems that it just rests on the upper arms. Oh well.). Also, the chest plate, side equiptment plate (right) and belt buckle are pepped. I don't know about the center piece, I might just end up using the WETA version instead.
As for the other pieces, I'll have to look into those. I'm sort of looking forward to really starting my own armor (resining, etc), so I don't know how much modeling I'll be doing in the future.

i pepd the Weta center piece it looks good but the circle part is ridiculously not pep friendly but i guess anything that small and circular would be.But Shade ur on a roll with both ur build and the modeling,hope that u dont have any trouble with ur build.

Wow, i just found this thread again, and just went through every page to find all the files. Great job everybody, but may i suggest possibly organizing all the peices to make it easier to find. Thanks to all.
if u dont want to make the ODST Chest Pouch i found a somewhat resemblance in this
http://www.airsplat.com/Items/AC-APP-MA6-BLK.htm
they arent exactly the same but i think they would work

Hey, thanks man, I hope your armor turns out great as well. And good find for a pouch!
Have you seen the first post? I haven't added Crackhead's files yet (don't worry, I will), but most of the files are there ...

Hey guys, i just wanted to say that all of the modelers and unfolders are doing a great job! my only criticism is this, can we please get some of these files moved to the wiki?? or and update showing all the UPDATED files and unfolds? not to sound like a negative person, but i just read all 27 pages of this thread and downloaded about thirty files. and now its time to sort, look at, and figure out which unfold i want, and then delete the excess. so i say that an update would be a great edition to this thread! and we def need to add these files to the wiki for easy access. thats my two cents, and keep up the good work!
ps, to an modelers out there worrying about the top of Romeo's helmet, if u think about it, all that is is tracking so that the goggles can slide up and down, there is no reason to model it, unless you want to be completely game accurate, just make your own.
