halo 3 recon NOW FULL SUIT! wip by Spartansonny

[Halex]

Scaling looks dead on to me; the front sits like I'd expect it to. Be easier to tell when the back is connected of course, but all in good time. Hope things are improving for you outside of the build, too!

scaling looking good to me as well

 

[Tigersgrace]

Lookin great brother, you really got a lot done in the 2 days that you've been home!

 

[spartansonny]

gotta start the ab section now, check the scale and how it looks on me now. tell me what you all think

 

[spencers12]

Glad to see you back, hope all is going well! Scaling looks spot on.

Scaling looks pretty spot on fortunate as you do not want to have to re-pep the chest piece lol, I did 2 of them, I still have flash backs.

Great to see you back as well

 

[Croc co]

BAMM! AWESOME!!! nice work on the chest, i think I'll watch this!

 

[Tigersgrace]

[Halex]

Lookin' good still, and I second what Sara said... I have a spare torso as well. Not fun.

thanks halex. it has taken me long enough to do this. i still have to do the back details in craft foam

 

[Mstruvmgc]

good scaling

 

[spartansonny]

i finalized the torso tonight by combining the front and back half and adding the support struts and started the recon attachment.... i measured, i remeasured, i started the pep on the attachment and fail. i have to bring up the scale on it by just a few mm. so i am putting it up for the night, if someone has a link to the attachment process for flyingsquirrels torso that would be appreciated , i looked and wasn't lucky enough, and on top of that i am beat, so i am not feeling the process of searching for an answer :/ i will look more tomorrow after work

 

[Tigersgrace]

Just remember my friend....measure twice and pep will still mess with you...lol

 

[Alfrey515]

Man this build is bananas!

I've been working on my EOD suit forever, only been doing pepping. This is giving me the bug to finish pepping everything and then move onto the bondoing. You're techniques are great!

Hey fh2hi thanks man. i screwed the pooch on the paint job with the helmet but it is slowly being sanded down so as not to rush and screw up the bondo job lol. i am glad it gives you some sort of motivation to finish up your project, i like knowing that some of my work (while not quite up to par with others) affects some of the members in a positive way. i haven't focused on the helmet so much lately due to the torso. i am half done with the recon attachment for it and will be hopefully gluing that in in the next day or two.hope to see a thread with your work soon.

...i like knowing that some of my work (while not quite up to par with others) affects some of the members in a positive way.

Definitely does, I've been using some of your techniques since I read through the thread. While I still can't make a playing card rondo dam that's worth... well, a damn... this thread has helped me a lot, and I'm sure many others as well.

 

[rukizash]

Mate, this looks really professional! Good job! Just a question what kind of paint did you used on the helmet? :confused
Cheers
