Spartan 4 foam armor build (PIC HEAVY)

[vargatom]

This armor looks so accurate from the smallest details to the general proportions that it's very hard to believe to be a scratch build! Can't wait to see it completed

By the way, could you give some more insight to your methods, in particular how you're using the Dremel, what heads and such? Also, do you plan to make the helmet from foam as well?

*Update*

Ok so I finshed the back and connected the the chest. Haven't really added any real detail on the entire chest but hopefully I can get to that soo lol next is to start on the little cod plates.

Hear is what I did last night:

Added the caps to the end of the boosters/jetpack

Connecting pieces, didint take pics for this but it was just a small piece

And now for test fit photos!!!!

That's pretty much it for now tonight I'll get to making all the tiny details and the little cod plates.

Seya!

*Update*

lol thanks guys i really do apreciate it !!!!

so ive been mia for the past few days but this is one of two updates for today lol still working lol.
I finished adding all the detail on the chest except the back theres one piece missing.

I started with making the undrsuit detail. I figued it would be easyer to make a giant sheet rather than keep stoping and making piece by pice.

I know it looks like a lot but it really only took me about 20-25min to finish a sheet.
so from there I moved onto the lower ab and part of the under suit.

I added the under suit pieces to the chest

ok so jump to the back added the jet pack clips in.

MORE DETAIL!!!!

lol ok ok ok thats it the rest are shots of the finished chest. Im not going to add anymore to the chest because I think if I do I wont finish the build in time lol so moving on the the thighs this afternoon lol ill post more progress tonight when those are done.

seya!
