Fred 104 Infinite style

[SpartanSweed]

Well, the ODST plan has been put on the backburner, with Galaxy and Planet so soon I decided to go for Fred’s armor as seen on the cover of Shadows of Reach. I’ll be using Moe’s Infinite Chief files with a few adjustments for the shoulder knives. Working on slicing the parts small enough to fit on my Ender 3 S1

Alright it’s been a minute but there has been progress! So far the arms have all been printed, sanded, primed, and painted. All that’s left for them is strapping which I’m still wrapping my head around. Currently we are printing

the boot armor, working on how I’m going to attach them to the boots in question

Another small update, I’ve printed one shin and another is well on the way! Also have a fellow Midwest member printing my helmet which saves me SO much hassle having to deal with 8 pieces instead of 1

Love that blue mate, and knife shoulders are super sick.

Loving the progress so far! The blue color is gorgeous and the knife holders being functional is really cool. Having printed Moe's files in the past, I wish you luck removing those supports from the shins; you have to really dig in there to get everything out. Do you have an idea as to how you're going to attach the forearm plates to the rest of the piece? I know there's a way you could do it with straps but I'm interested in seeing if you have another method in mind.

Proud to say that we have made progress! Helmet is nearing the final sanding stage and the shins are fully painted, as are the boot plates but remain to be strapped

I’m absolutely terrible at updating this thread but a decent amount of progress has happened despite my printer being extremely temperamental.

The incredible SSGLordBert printed off my helmet in one piece and after a few weeks it’s finally smooth and painted. Also have the thighs and new forearms from him that await to be finished.

The boots have also been fully finished and are in the process of being shoe goo’d to rubber soles for traction, update more when it’s dry

Will we be seeing this debuted at C2???

Absolutely love this helmet. Really hope it eventually makes its way into infinite. Looks killer, man
