Halo Reach Noble 6 Helmet and Now Suit.

[Richie]

Well, I can't post in the noob section.

I got the resin and rondo stage done and have begun to draw out my plans and work on some of the shaping.

I did 3 layers of rondo and a layer of fiberglass around the edges for added strength.

Also, I couldn't find that many reference pictures so I took some using theater mode in Reach.

I set my deadline for Halloween but, we'll see if I make it.

It may not be much but, this is what I had about 2 weeks ago. Sadly I don't have current photos, seeing how I don't have a camera.

Really nice mate. I'll be looking out for the completed armour. I'm trying to get mines done before Halloween as well.

 

[Richie]

Thanks, A full suit is definitely in the works but, i want to finish the helmet and get it as perfect as possible. I not really shooting for Halloween though, when its done its done.

Heres some current photos that I took with my phone.

Looks very nice so far, but tell me, how much does that weigh now that it has 3 layers of rondo? I would imagine weight becoming an issue if worn for extended periods.

lol, it has 3 layers of rondo and 2 layers of resin with fiberglass in some areas. Wanted to make sure it was really strong.

It weighs a good bit, not exactly sure. But, yeah wearing it would be a pain. Thats why at the moment I'm saving money and learning as much as possible about mold making.

It's been a while but, I have a little update. You probably can't tell but, a lot has changed. I've filled in areas and started to carve in the lines that are needed.

Thanks, all hand sanded too. I can already tell the lower jaw portion is going to be a pain.

Made a quick video, also includes my predator bio even though you can't really see it.

Updated Pictures

This picture is me with it on. It does seem to be a little big on the inside but, hopefully that will go away when padding is added.

Plus a video.

I finally decided to start a full suit and I'm going to do like most and build my in-game suit. I've started on the chest, the next thing I gotta do is find the fabric that is on juns chest piece. I also have to get a jorge helmet. I do plan to finish the noble six but, idk when.

the chest only took like 5 days, the helmet has taken way longer. I'm not 100% sure I'm done with the chest either, there are some things i may add.

 

[Road Kill]

dang that is pretty fast, it takes me about a week to just pep a helmet and then about like a year to actually finish it =P i am really slow with that because i have school and that takes up a lot of amor working time =( sadness

Wow. You do beautiful work.
