Halo Reach Jorge- First build

Ah that makes sense. I'm in fact contemplating using the soft flooring foam around the neck and arm areas as well. I have to be careful not to jack up the torso too high though,or I will have issues with moving my head!

Well I for one, would love to see the updates on this so keep us posted.

Do you know what name the colour of yellow/orange you used for your chest was, and where you got it? I couldn't find anything anywhere that looked close to Jorge's colour. I ended up getting a "John Deere Yellow" that I figured I could dirty up to get it darker, but if I knew where to look to get the shade you have that would be better.

Mine is the Krylon Bahaus Gold. I've found it at Walmart, Rona, and Home Depot.

Fortunately it sprays more towards the yellow side as opposed to orange side, but it is the closest colour I could find short of a custom paint.

Hm, maybe I did see that one. I know I looked at a gold, but I was afraid it would be too shiny. I'll take another look for that one and hopefully I still have the receipt for the yellow I have....

It's gold in name only... it has no metallics in it at all. If it is glossy you can coat your paint with a matt finish to take the shine off, that and weather the snot out of it.
