Very nice man keep up the good work
Nice work dude! I'm doing Ruze's helmet too so its nice watching someones progress who has more time to work on it and is a few steps further than me. Definitely gona watch this and take some notes here like how you split the back of the helm to fit your head in. Gona try that when I get home!

Thanks Ruze, I’m glad you approve. Your model is extremely good and detailed. I’m glad I found it. Thanks again, for the model.
Thank you Thorn, Good luck on your project!
Thank you, I’m happy my progress can help others. Wait till you see the details, I’m about to sculpt. I have to first get the base completely perfect, then I’m going to sculpt all the in game details. Provided I can find some good reference photos. I’ve had trouble finding them. It would help if I could find some good front, side, back, & top photos. Unfortunately, I’m terrible at the game and haven’t played enough to unlock it, so I can’t save screen shots of it. Well, I wish you luck in your build! I’ll keep posting progress pictures for you guys.
Keep building 405th!

Minor Update:
Not sure what the attachment is called, but here is Carter's attachment. Is it a com Device?
So what do you think? it needs a little work still. Does anyone think the antenna thingy is to long?
Well, thanks again for viewing my build?

I'm not exactly sure yet, I may create some sort of post that comes out from the side & use magnets to secure it. I should be molding this piece to, I want to design it so that its easy to place electronics and such inside of it.
My idea was to make the flat piece that goes against the helmet out of a styrene sheet so it is removable from the com piece, then attaching it with screws so you can get in to the com piece and place lights and batteries and the works. I'm also planning on using bolts to attach the whole com piece to the helmet like how Carpathia did his shoulder pieces on his carter build. Just an idea, take it how you like

Rough detail sculpt
This still needs to be cleaned up, but here is a rough sculpt on details. Also, my mouse sander died tonight. RIP Mouse sander.
I'm not entirely happy with it, but let me know what you think. Thanks for viewing my build. Keep building 405th!

About the mouse sander, before buying a new one see if you can't fix it. It could just be clogged/caked with dust and needing a good cleaning.

Thanks, I'll be sanding it tomorrow, and then I'll see about using your Visor Tut.

@Roadwarrior, Good luck with the sanding, can't wait to see you finish up one of your MK V castings. Hopefully the tut helps.
@Slideo, thnks man,The sculpted detail is still pretty rough right now, I'm going to tighten that up tonight. Also, I am going to try what Roadwarrior recommended and give my sander a good cleaning.
Keep building guys!
