  • Unity Project 2012 for Child's Play Charity (Looking for donors)

    #1

    Update 5/2/13
    I think we need a goal to work towards , so ......
    Our deadline is officially October 1st



    Hello all!

    As some of you may remember , last year I got a small team together to make a MK VI helmet to donate to Child's Play Charity . The helmet was signed by Steve Downes and several other members of the cast of Halo : CE . The helmet sold for nearly $900 and I think we could get even more!

    After seeing all of the new images of the Halo 4 armor being released , I would like to put together a team and make a full suit of Halo 4 armor . We need the best of the best . Each person will play a key role in the armor and will have a designated part of the armor to work on . keep in mind This is for charity

    How to Donate

    I'm glad you asked! If you are interested in donating , go to our official tumblr page!

    [URL="http://projectunity2012.tumblr.com/donate"]projectunity2012.tumblr.com/donate[/URL="http://projectunity2012.tumblr.com/donate"]

    I encourage this as there are some awesome perks involved!

    Positions (Those still available are marked **empty** )

    Note: If I have your address , your name will have a "Yes" next too it. If it doesn't , please send it too me so I can send out your print and lanyard!

    Helmet - Sai-257 -Yes

    Visor(s) - Sir Tsaboc - Yes

    Chest piece - kolinrulz - Yes

    shoulders - JBetts97

    gauntlets - bigred1910 - Yes

    gloves and hand armor - uratz - Yes

    Thighs - higdog827 - Yes

    Knee and shins - kolinrulz - Yes

    boots - ACDCrockr209 - Yes

    undersuit - uratz (possibly) - Yes

    paint - HaloGoddess - Yes

    BR85HB SR Battle Rifle - kolinrulz -Yes

    The pep files and models supplied by - KingRahl

    Donors
    Garry Laniwics - Yes
    SeniorRawr -Yes
    Mstruvmgc -Yes

    IMPORTANT- All parts should be scaled to a 'average' size . Example - The human head is 55.9 cm in circumference , so that is what you should base your scaling off of . Just google "what is the average size of (whatever piece you are doing) in cm?" and you should get your answer .

    All parts will be molded and cast out . This is no easy task , but with a good team , it could be fantastic ! Please , any reference pictures , volunteers or help in general is highly appreciated !

    I sense that this thread will be of great reference -

          Disregard what I said about the helmet donation , the deal fell through . That means -

            I would like to say, I LOVE what we have going on here. I do not have much armor making experience, however I would like to help in any way I can with this endeavor. So here is what I'll do. I'll begin making the helmet and I'll post update picture (in this thread or otherwise) so that my workmanship can be properly critiqued, but if anyone else with more experience decided to construct the helmet, I'll yield it to them. This isn't so much a question of my ability rather than an assurance that the project is of an acceptable quality.

            Here are some reference pictures of my current MKVI Helmet build with the FC-I[2] attachments:

              Hey man! Thanks for your help! I'll add you too this list after I post this reply . Your pep work looks super clean and beautiful ! Does that mean you will make the entire helmet? If so , once it's done you can ship it too me and I'll mold it up so we can have a nice lightweight cast ! Thanks again !

              Also-

              I just got permission from King Rahl to 3D print hisShoulder piece and hand plate models on shapeways! Thanks Man!
              We still need people!

                        Ya know, I may be interested in painting. Since it seems that this project could take some time to be completed and by then, I could possibly have the supplies to airbrush the whole thing. I prefer airbrushing over anything else. I plan on airbrushing my hayabusa suit. hehe

                          That'd be cool. Haven't painted my personal helmet yet so I'm not sure how it would come out.

                            Hey, I'd love to help out with this! Honestly, I'm up to doing pretty much anything you need me to do, Just shoot me a PM if there's something I can do to lend a hand.

                              Awesome man! I'll send you a message with some things!

                              Just a quick reminder - Please scale all parts to 'standard' sizing . For example - The average human head is normally 55.9 cm (so scale the helmet to that circumference ) Make sure whatever piece your doing to look up the average size of that body part .

                              Thank you everyone for offering your time to contribute !
