Hey look, another ODST. (WIP) (Pic heavy)

[Jimmy Da Moose]

I've never seen your thread, but I wish I did before. This is turning out awesome. I must say, your pep skills are fantastic. This is truly a great build.


P.S. I have a visor install tut if you need it.

Well thank you.

Actually, my visor is installed with velcro. That way if something were to permenatly mar it, I'll be able to replace it.

That's a smart way to do it. Awesome job.

P.S. Mine is removable too.

what is it with people and weak stuck up odsts

 

[Jimmy Da Moose]

Well, I'm back, finally. I've got college stuff out of the way (for now), so hopefully I can do some real work.

Anyway, here's what I got for today.

I've got the right shoulder finished.

Plus, I have the hip plates, a rib plate and a half, and an ab plate finished. I'm getting a new camera this weak, so I'll have some quality picture of my stuff.

 

[BLACKULA727]

First, I love the helm. Second, the pic is very fuzzy(may be my computer). However, I can still see that the shoulder was put together perfectly, I just cant see the weathering properly. I can see the scratched metal and that looks great! Keep up the good work.

 

[Jimmy Da Moose]

Its the picture, I used my phone to take it. Hopefully by Wednesday I'll have a camera to get good pictures of this and the rest of my un-posted stuff.

What is it with people and weak stuck up post's?

Anyway, your ODST is coming along quite nicely.

looks like some good progress there keep it up

 

[Jimmy Da Moose]

Alright, so, a shinny new camera and some very pretty pictures.

So there they are, in all their splendor.

The stomach plate, along with the chest plate are Kirrou's files, so I'll have to see how they'll fit together with Hugh's chest core.

Looking good Jimmy!

How have you made the visor?

 

[Jimmy Da Moose]

Video
^I followed this tutorial to make the former. I used plexiglass from my local hardware store, and tinted it with transparent blue spray paint.

 

[Bmth1123]

Some more stuff!
First, let me show the system I used to hang the plates off of the torso core.

And now, let me show you how it turned out.

 

[Rosh]

Welcome to the hell jumpers kid- that build is coming along nicely. I'm impressed that you had the vac former and visor made before you even started a build thread. I'm keeping my eye on you.

 

[Jimmy Da Moose]

Thanks! I figured it would be good to have something substantial to show off before I started my thread to show that I'm serious about a full armor build.

Is that Velcro?
