Halo 3: ODST - UNSC ODST 1.2

Question regarding the templates. I see that on some of the cutting edge the line is perforated (see attached image). What is that for? If it is meant to be bent, then why is it on the cutting edge? This is my first build ever so any help is appreciated

Without knowing the specific part you are talking about, I can only guess that this means that when you assemble the piece and attach the next part along that line, it will be attach at an angle, rather than gluing straight on.


It can be helpful to reference the 3-D model when looking at the templates. You should be able to click on that part on the 2-D display, and it will highlight where it is on the 3-D display. Then look at the edges and see what is going on with that junction on the 3-D model to get a better understanding the assembly.

So this is the part i originally highlighted on the odst helmet but they everywhere in the template.

For that piece, assuming you're doing a foam build since there are no tabs, you can treat the outer lines all as being solid, and it'll be fine.

That's exactly what I did. Didn't have any issue.

This is probably a stupid question but I'm struggling to decide what thickness of foam to use. I'm trying to make the forearm, scaled to my arm nicely but this is my first time using pepakura as the template (I've used pep before) Could I use floor mats?

I have little experience working with foam following AndrewDFTs video on how to actually piece parts together (I was building the shoulders) so I was basically shown how to build it but with pep there's no instructions Hence not knowing what thickness to use..

I used 10mm foam for my whole ODST and i used 2mm foam to add details to certain parts. Oh and the 10mm foam were all from floormats so they should do the job just fine!

Sweet Did your forearms turn out fine?

Well i don't know whta template you're going to use for the fore arms but i made my own template because the one i had was waaay to big even scaled down, the diameter was akways too large so i made my own and they turned out perfect!

Hello. This thread is specifically for discussing the files we have available in our Armory for the Halo 3 ODST.

If you would like assistance building your own costume I would reccomend starting a thread dedicated to your personal build in either the New Recruit or Halo Costume and Props sections, as this post might not be seen by many folks, since, as mentioned, this thread is intended for discussion of the files hosted on the website.

hey im new and need help im trying to 3d print this but it says that it is a file type that cannot be accessed/used so yeah, and i have a week and a half to do at least most of the armor, so i NEED some help

 

[Fallen]

The files for these are meant for pepakura and/or foam, not 3d printable files. If you're looking for something that can be 3d printed I suggest looking in the 3D Model Index instead.

oh ok ill go to galactic armory then, thank you for your help
