New Unfolded Patterns For Smoother Pep Builds

[xenovidx]

Oi! Wish I had found this sooner



Thank you to whomever it was that necroed this beauty. I agree wholeheartedly that this should have a sticky!

for your robo helmet can i just change the hight or do i have to change the scale and the hight, or the scale, im lost. i really want to build this helmet.

You can change either one. Change the height if you have measurements of your head. Change the scale if you're extrapolating your height based on the Master Chief's height. He's 7 feet tall, which is what the default size is for (if I remember correctly) and will result in a helmet approximately the size of a motorcycle helmet (see my avatar pic). If the scale value isn't 86, then I scaled it down to my size.

Is the helmet to scale with the Halo 3 Legendary Edition helmet? Cuz then its perfect.

See above.



I recommend using my version of DF4L's helmet. It's got fewer pieces, easier to pep, smoother, and more detailed.



I'll be uploading my version for Crackhead's new HD shins tonight. It's been scaled down to my size, so you might have to break up some of the larger pieces if you're taller than 5'8" - 5'10".

Thanks! I planned on using my drill to put in those circle details before applying clay.

Any plans for doing a HD chestpiece MrOreo? I'm halfway thru a Normal Detail one atm, but if you plan on doing one I'll scrap it for your fine work

I plan on doing these for all the pieces of my personal armor and will release them as I build/unfold them. That said, I may not have a new unfold pattern for the chest by the time you need it. I learn better techniques of unfolding as I build them, so by the time I get to the chest, I should have something very quick/easy to build. If I unfold them all at once now, some of the pieces won't have the benefit of any new experience I pick up along the way. So please have patience and I will get to them all in due time!

No worries, I would hate to rush genius! This gives me time to work on your other pieces anyways!

If you could make Dutch's helmet from ODST like that, you'd be my hero

 

[Tandhem]

MrOreo i absolutely love you. you make the lives and the future of my armor so much easier and mor epossible. i mean it when i say- I FREAKING LOVE YOU!





p.s. are any or all of these the HD models??





p.s.s. i think you would make the other half of this forum bow down to your name if you did Dutchs odst helmet and the rest of that armor in this beautiful incredi-smooth pep style.

They are slowly coming out as I pep them myself for my own armor build.

Well, I don't know about anyone bowing down to me, but we'll see what happens. I'm trying to concentrate on MkVI first with the occasional new model that comes out. I'll be releasing my version of Rundown's MkIV shin soon, probably tomorrow.

Sorry, no ETA. Try as I might, my files far from perfect, so please don't put me on a pedestal or anything (but I'm still grateful for the praise!). In some respects, my files are actually HARDER to pep in a few areas due to the smooth curvature of some pieces over an angled corner. If you're in a hurry (like for the H3:ODST launch) just use the existing HD files and use your judgment whether or not to fold some of the lines since the underlying geometry is the same. In the mean time, I'll try to get to as many models as I can.



EDIT:

Crackhead's new HD shin is up. Links in the first post.

[GMer56]

Thank, you, Mr. Oreo!

Unfortunately, I only have a forearm and a helmet left to pep.

All well, I'll use these to finish it up.

Maybe once you are done with the standard set you can look into the other armor types (please)

 

[Tandhem]

[Adam Anderson]

[scandomfo]

To my knowledge, I am not sure if anyone has done the chest

[Adam Anderson]

[mroreo123]

I've done it.

EDIT:

Hmm, I just checked my links on the 1st post, and they're all fine now.
