Halo MK VI custom (FINISHED)

Awesome job so far, man. Everything's looking great. The plaid pants is a nice touch.

 

[rickrtickr]

Looking good! Your pep skills are great. Everything looks very clean. How are you planning to harden your suit/ Rondo or fibergalss? Just curious

i think i might do a little of both.
sadly though i won't be able to start any of that untill spring, because the room i am working in is about 3 ft from the heater and my garadge is 50 ft from my house (if you are wondering i live in the contry) and dosn't have a heater so no place to work
but when spring comes around i will be back in full swing.

[rickrtickr]

UPDATES COMMING

Scale looks spot on, do you plan making the Hi-def handplates?

you might note that the out side isn't fiberglased yet but im getting there

and now i have started on the thighs and mk VI biceps

i always tart a new piece by fiberglassing the inside first

and that is all i have for now hoping to finish fiberglasing by june.

 

[Toacrabman]

Another EVA fan! Good luck with your build, it looks like it's coming along nicely so far. How do you plan on handling the visor? Also, I really like the armored finger concept, it'll be interesting to see how you manage it if you stick with it!

Oh ya love the Eva. But to answer your question I plan to vacuum form the visor after the rondo process.
