Back Hardened, Also note the the front and back are now sepperated. And the back has the two jet-pack thruster things that are hardened and waiting to be attached. The detail and chest pieces will be worked on sepperate and the joined later. I have started bondoing as of today, but I dont have pictures. So i'll update soon. Thanks!

UPDATE.

It's been a long time since I've updated. I had to re-do my chest because of sizing so that was mainly the issue. I also Have my helmet, and gloves in progress. Pretty excited on how this is turning out. Here's some pictures over the past weeks:

Helmet:
:CAM00171_zps5738c85a.jpg


Helmet painted/ chest parts reinforced before hardening. I didn't want warping, which is another reason the old chest was re-done.

Chest fiber glassed/ rondoed.
CAM00193_zps01fd2433.jpg

Back detail on chest, still needs hardened. Also don't know if these are jet packs or just recon's cool factor.
CAM00208_zps5835e052.jpg

Hand detail. This is what I'm really excited about. I casted super thick latex and got this. I will then paint over it, but as of right now, it gives the gloves that super "real" factor. No strapping, no lines, just some good o'l armor.

That's some hella bright blue. Interesting idea on the hands. Looking forward to seeing how the chest looks with the arms in the future. Keep it up!
 
Re: Halo 4 armor build + under suit (PIC heavy) WIP

PS. If I didn't say it before I'm doing the mainstream armor of Recon/ Contoured
 
Re: Halo 4 armor build + under suit (PIC heavy) WIP

Well, have not posted in a long time again. Here's an update: all armor has been " created". The arms, knees, helmet, boots are complete and attached. All that is left is smoothing the legs and chest and some paint.
Anyone going to Vinci Comic-Con will see me! :))

Re: Halo 4 armor build + under suit (PIC heavy) WIP

Re: Halo 4 armor build + under suit (PIC heavy) WIP

So update, legs are done. Also butt plate is on. And by on i mean removable. The idea of sitting on it made me cringe ( because im 220 lbs and bondo cracks under that weight.) So magnets where in order. Yes, magnets, not the kind that go on your fridge, the kind that dont release unless you use all your streangth to get them off. So heres some pics. Almost there guys, hope you like.

Ps, yes the paint job is probably wrong, i had no referance pictures and i just made it my own. Im trying to keep this super accurate though.
 
Re: Halo 4 armor build + under suit (PIC heavy) WIP

Last update before this project is complete. Just spent 14 hours finishing up the chest. Still needs paint, and the wings. Sculpted some cool details on it. Pretty proud of how much i did. Ready to be done, its been a long journey.[emoji28]
