Reach Armor By Spartan-029

[HaloGoddess]

I only have a top view and a side view of Kat's helmet. Plus I have a shot that that is looking up at the helmet from the bottom. From the sound of Ruze's post, he might have some better screenshots of the helmet.

However, my concern is that attachment that Kat has on the right side of her helmet. I haven't seen too many GOOD reference shots that really show that so I don't know how easy it is to accurately model that thing. :\

Might help you model the helmet.

Here's my gallery of Kat's helmet, includes all 4 orthographic views as well as some various other shots.

I hope you don't mind mate, but I would like to request a model. I was wondering if you could model the bicep/shoulder Reach pieces. Rundown did a phenominal job with his models, but he missed a feature. On the bicep piece, there's a ridge on the armor that gives it a sort of... detailed distinction.
In the two first photos, I accented the ridge in red.

So, um.... I asked a question in post #26 that wasnt really answered, and if yall want this thigh to be released, then im going to need to get it answered (the newly edited mens one of course)! Also (I would be willing to do this) but I would have to do a new unfold, seeing as how while I was waiting for my question to be answered, pepakura designer froze my computer and crashed my unfold (was my first unfold ever done) but I thought it was pretty good! Would probably be better for another unfolder, a better one to take a crack at it while I practice, but at the same time, this forearm that was just released, and the thigh piece are the only ones I need to get everything going seeing as how your files, SJSUSPARTAN, are the most accurate and in my opinion the best reach files around (no offense to any other modelers). So, yah! Read post 26, and then get back to me, cause sick and awesome S&#T might go down!!!!!!! =D

Hey Altair. Sorry, I don't know how I missed your comment before. I must be getting old. But my email is on my profile if you need to use it. And thanks for the compliments. I'm glad my 3D studies are being put to good use and you guys like them so much. Hope you'll stick around for my upcoming halo project after Reach is released.

Thanks for the refs mate. I've been dreading the biceps but I know they need to be done. I'll probably get to work on those after I'm done building the lower torso parts to my armor. Speaking of which, i'm going to go build my shins and thighs and let you know how they fit.

 

[Altair651]

Haha, its all good man! And yah, ill shoot you an e-mail!

 

[DYSTORTED INC]

Kat's shin looks really good! can you edit it for the male version. You know, not so curvy on the front

 

[Altair651]

Well I tryd sending you an e-mail, but its not really an e-mail...... Its yahoo chat? =/

 

[SJSUSPARTAN]

curvey? Which part do you mean?

so you want a model even though it's easy to make that by hand,

 

[DYSTORTED INC]

well, there is a slight difference, but you call tell for yourself.

Female shin/ Kat

Male shin/...everyone else

 

[DYSTORTED INC]

the front is what I'm talking about.

I was just looking for a base model to make things easier, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who would want a model of that. I'll give it a try though once I'm done pepping the Noble Six helmet.

Hey! Just checkin to see if there is any progress on Kat's helmet. Right now, it seems to be the last piece I need to have a complete suit!!

 

[rvb18]

didn't rhinoc make one?

 

[SJSUSPARTAN]

i didn't get to work on it yesterday because I had to work all day. my boss in in the hospital with a really nasty virus so he asked me to cover for him. I have today off so after my errands, I'll get back to work on it. I'll post a progress report tonight. Sorry for the delay...

 

[SJSUSPARTAN]

okay, so i've only been home for about an hour and a half or so, and thought i'd give a lil preview to Kat's helmet. I'd say it's coming along well as far as modeling goes. I'll probably get around to the little nitty gritty details in another hour or two. Stick around... Especially you H-Goddess =D
