MKVII Build CQC Helmet

[S Zero]

Hey Everyone,

I started my first build with the goal of attending C2E2 this year in mid April with a completed suit, which gives me just under 3 months.

My inspiration is my own multiplayer spartan from infinite

I have already complete the arms, biceps, and shoulders with their base metallic paint

The chest has been assembled after cutting into many parts to fit on a Bambu P1S build plate

I opted for a finer layer line print at .12 which made these take a lot longer but should mean I have less to address in post processing with mostly just focusing on the seam lines.

Next on the print list

• Shins
• Feet
• Belt
• TPU flexible undersuit parts

I ended up outsourcing the print of the helmet since I really wanted it to be on continuous piece and it helps with my timeline on the build schedule.

Does anyone have a solution for attaching the front and back of the chest piece to create a semi flexible hinge to make it easier to remove?

I really like how your Spartan is going to look! I’ve seen other Mk7’s use magnets to keep the chest piece together yet also able to be taken off with ease.

Here’s a few thread on Mk7’s that I’ve been looking to as so build my own:

N8TEBB's Mk 7 Build!!!!!

I want to make a mk 7 suit this summer. I'm going in with a bit of a plan but really I plan on making it up as I go along. This is what I want my spartan to look like when all is said and done: I think the shoulders will be different, maybe the handplates, and different paint job on the gun...

Looking forward to seeing how your suit goes, C2 is gonna be a great time!

Update on the build

Decided to just move forward with completing my CQB helmet, which i think turned out great

I will still be adding attachments I think, but need to focus on the other parts for now.

Helmet file is from Galactic Armory and visor was ordered from etsy which I attached to a 3mm acrylic sheet to give it stability.

It was finally warm and sunny in Michigan. Rest of the armor got filler primer

Gotta love the sight of a garage floor covered in parts. Good work so far!
