Kazansky316's Halo Reach style armor. (FOAM BUILD)
Heya guys, I've been lurking for a few months haven't said much of anything, just read alot, looked at pictures, read some more, watched tutorials, and read some more. I've decided that I want to build a suit of my own and to do so I'm going to utilize the following files
L3X's File Database:
1 Male Mark V Mjolnir Foam (V4)
2 Foam Bicep Template (M)
3 Foam Abs Wrap (M) (I think I will modify slight to ad more girth.)
4 Foam Thigh Template (M)
5 Foam Shin Template (M)
6 Foam Cod (M)
7 Foam Forearm Template V2
8 Foam Mark V Shoulder
9 (Not sure for knees yet)
For the undersuit I purchased a Lycra warm weather water wetsuit as shown in photo. A moto compression armor/vest. The same Rap 4 gloves everyone has, and I also ordered a black warm weather dive mask basically just wraps around your head and neck should arrive in a few days.
Once the covering armor peices are scaled and put on the plan it to see what parts of the undersuit will be covered by different layering of varying thickness foam to give added bulk, and give that... extra bit of style.
This is the test peice I did using L3X's V3 halo reach foam file. Just because until this project the last "artsy" thing I've ever done was about 20 years ago. I've never touch any kind of exacto style razor blade/knife until now.
And here is a picture of the torso I made real qiuckly, the shape looked a little weird because I don't have the bottom of it properly mounted yet.
And lastly I began cutting out and tracing the templates for the v4 chest peice. Have a few more to do but hopefully I will get a good amount of these cutout tonight, I hope to have the basic front chest complete by the time I hit the rack.
Wish me luck.
And shoutouts to thorn for answering some questions of mine and to Spaceg0st for helping me out with the scaleing, the v4 chest piece seems to scale ALOT differently pg[/IMG]then the v3.
