hey guys im starting painting tonight im going to go ahead and go with red. becaus ive never bilt a red suit before lol but pics will be up in the a.m. pics of the thighs aswell
OMFG DUDE! you are my hero when it comes to 2 things, halo 4 things, and foam armor pieces, this is a master piece! Have you ever seen kill kill kill's halo 4 build? It's amazing and it's also made from foam too! you and him should meet sometime. And I love the under suit idea from the dremel, you really know how to improvise! I'll be keeping a close eye on you for updates keep up the amazing work fsracer!
Wow, it just keeps getting better and better. Amazing how much pop that simple coat of paint and minor details gives it. Are you going to do some weathering/battle damage? Or are you going to leave it looking factory fresh?
And don't worry everybody, Im makeing a Halo 4 Spartan helmet to go with this suit, Im just to lazy to take pics LoL, but the whole suit willl look correct with the right helmet
Thanks for all the complements ive been at AFO this weekend and I finally found time to update!
ok so hear is the shin build:
cut detail
hear is the inner shin detail.
ok so I skipped a lot of the bulild prosess to get to painting as quick as I could but hear is the diference between the base paint and the weathered paint.
ok and hears all of the armor together weathered
I gave a seek peek at AFO of the armor this weekend the compleat version will be at dragon con 2012
This is turning out to be an amazing build man! I love updates on this thread cause I know it's always gunna be great. Weathering certainly takes it away from the brand new toy look
Keep up the good work,
Tom.
P.S. think you might be inspiring me to finish my suit off while I work out how to reinforce the hand guard on my gravity hammer.
I seen this suit in person and He has details carved into the suit that you can't see in the pics, the details are amazing when you see it in person, I have actual pics of him wearing the suit but I don't know if FSacer wants me to debute the almost finished suit so I will leave it up to him
talk about motivation man, the amount of detail that you have put into the build is just insane. on another note, are you planning on building the Spartan IV helmet to go along with the armor, or are you sticking with the Master Chief lid? or might that be a future project?
