May post a build thread on that too! It won't be started 'til summer at the earliest, though. No time between our Halo group.

Thanks guys! Yeah, the owners are getting him declawed and he doesn't have rabies, so it was unnecessary worry. Either way, I started my girlfriend's set today, she's getting a smaller version that's been scaled and modified for a girl for her chestplate- We started the undersuit. It's taught...

Thanks! I've really been thinking about it, this project alone has taken so much time I'm wondering if I could squeeze more work in between school and my actual job. Being attacked by a possibly rabid cat yesterday also put a hamper on the project, had a few claws dug out of my skull and have a...

Haven't been taking many photos of the progress so far, but the torso outside is almost entirely hardened, and the only pepping to do is one forearm, the boots, and the upper arms. :) After that, gotta throw together an undersuit and fibreglass everything. Can only do this on weekends, I'm using...

Such clean work!

Hey, I'm doing a very high resolution model, so total this'll probably be about 120 pages of A4 sized cardstock. :) If you do a less complicated model, I'd say you'd need about 80. This is how to do the visor- http://costumedork.wordpress.com/2011/01/26/dual-layer-halo-visor-mini-tutorial/

Remade!

Torso this afternoon- Torso after rain- I'm now 3 days behind schedule.

Visor being changed to mirror red and shall be dual layered as such- Both thighs are done now, and the helmet is a nice shade of black. I think it needs more bondo and sanding, but that'll have to wait 'til next paycheque. Only things left to make from cardstock are the feet, shins/knees...

Amazingly fast work! What's the scale?

Haha

That's neat as hell! Can see the use for places with a mag cap limit, up here we're allowed to have as many as we want in a rimfire cartridge thankfully. I'd like a 10-22, they seem like neat little rigs. Guns aren't a big deal up here right now, thankfully, so I can get away with strapping...

Not so far! Hopefully it won't with the visor in. It's also pretty cold here right now, so there's not much opportunity for it to

Tonight's updates- some sanding and painting has been done, more sanding and painting needs to happen. Ordering a visor tomorrow.

The RPF has a thread like this, and hey- I guess this is another relevant hobby to a lot, especially in this political climate lately (luckily up here in Canada we're not suffering too much of that yet). Anyone else here shoot? Here's my contributions- the second was done as a joke, I promise...

Today's updates! After outer coat- Inner coat- Now ready to be sanded and detailed with bondo

Yeah, they have a pretty convenient pep file zip up on 4shared. http://www.4shared.com/file/ZwVUTUEJ/405th_Pep_Pack_17.html Pretty much any file one would want. Fiberglassed two helmets today (the one on the previous page, and the CQB one). Pictures soon

Holy hell, 3 weeks is really quite fast. Did you make the model yourself? I've been doing all high-poly and am sort of regretting it, but this is the sort of thing I want to keep... well, forever. So @ Rogeria, I think the difficulty of the outfit depends on the build you do- high poly has a lot...

Thigh panel is done. Bit tight. The venting on the inside, I'll do with foam.

Rogerio, try your local stationary store. I don't know if you have Staples or Walmart there, but it should be in the printer paper section. Just try the heaviest printer-safe stuff they have. :) Any pictures of the builds, dkaniel? Still mulling through ideas.
