Hi 405th, this is my first thread (at least the first one on the forum) of building an ODST suit.
I recently started with the construction of this suit and today I bring a little of what I was doing this last month.
For this suit I decided to use some shoulder pads that I had built a while ago with a Halo 3 marine armor, which I recently lost in a move half a month ago
Having that piece ready, I started to unfold the ODST helmet from Halo Infinite which I already have published here in the forum, inspired by my Spartan in the game
Then I started to design a helmet with a classic pattern design and that used 3 shades of colors without counting the visor and this was the result
Having everything ready, I started by building the helmet attachment achieving a result that I would later detail with small ornaments and rivets simulated in the Eva Foam
I started building the top of the helmet, as well as putting the attachment on it to get an idea of where to position it, and here are some photos of the process
and then I continued with the construction of the back of the helmet and with the parts of the sides, of which there are photos, because I forgot to take photos of when I made the front of it hahahaha
And after almost 3 weeks, this was the result of the construction
ODST Build Comparison
In this section I want to make a small comparison in the evolution of my ODST helmet builds
First build whit Andrew DFT templates & Second build with paper templates
Last builds of Halo 2 and Halo Infinite helmets
I'm very happy with the result and can't wait to seal and paint it.
I will try to do it before mid-May, since on those dates in the area of Mexico where I live there are some mini carnivals with costumes, and if I want to wear the helmet during the tour, if I can wear it here, I will upload those photos
