Legendary Armor - MA5C Assault Rifle

[BishopX]

Hmmm. That's what we scaled it to before but the handle area ends up too big for normal human hands. We scaled it down to 32.5" long

 

[Xavier]

Im glad you did... because it would be too big other wise.

 

[mightymints]

hmm, with your skill i think you could get a surefire torch of some kind(very bright) and then remould it into the gun its self.

 

[Ares]

Hey, uh, when aren't you there? What time of day? What kind of alarms do you have?
JK

Beautiful rifle. I WANT.

 

[hellclown]

Bishop do you have the same kind of drawing for the BR?

 

[BishopX]

I can make a drawing at some point of the BR. I'm currently working on drawings for the entire costume.

We can add any kind of flashlight to this rifle but it should look like the original. The lenses on the Surefire doesn't really look like the flashlight in the game. Or, we can just make a non-funtional permanent flashlight.

 

[hellclown]

So when can we expect the BR drawing?

I wouldn't rush him if I were you. He will do it when he gets around to it. It's not like you're paying him to do it.

...per what bishopx and I discussed, I say it is best to use something that can be readily replaced (ie maglite)...also mold a non-functional part as well...both can be dropped in NP...

...same goes for the counter...perhaps make it so that an electronic counter can be used or a non-functional replacement version with a lens...almost like a plug/cap...

...the handgrip area is being redone to make it look and feel better...sometimes things just do not come out quite right...hope that makes sense...

...I think the few changes we have added so far have made a better looking rifle...ie barrel thickness as well as the thickness of the gun itself...

[BishopX]

This is the modification so far...

 

[Ruze789]

This AR is looking awesome, guys, can't wait to see how this project ends up. And very cool process for making it, too; your progress shots are very informative to see.

 

[Hollis DZC]

It's looking better and better and better and...

 

[Zaso117]

wow. can it get any better?

 

[S1l3nt V1p3r]

I CAN HAS AR?

Seriously, this is AWESOME.

 

[BishopX]

That's all Slavefive. He's pretty baddass when he's not being lazy. LOL. I'm kidding dude.....

 

[hellclown]

I wasn't trying to rush him just asking for a number of days/weeks/months/please don't say more than a year.

 

[BishopX]

I'll probably knock that out when we are done with the helmet and the MA5C.

 

[LastSpartan]

Can you teach us how you did this!?

And the blueprints, are they scaled?

 

[BishopX]

Teach you how? All I did was take pictures from Halo 3...perfect profile view and pulled it into Autocad. I traced it and then scaled it to the proper length. Sometimes, it is necessary to alter the drawings so that a real human hand can hold the gun.

I'm not sure how to do an online Autocad tutorial. Autocad is fairly easy to learn to use though.

This file is to scale for what we are building. Apparently, Wikipedia says it should be 2" longer....(so does my woman)
