ODST "Buck-le" STLs (the STL formerly known as Hip Hardware)

[CrimsonViper97]

With COVID-19 having shut down my entire industry, I'm taking some time to improve my ODST armor. You can find my original build here: EVA ODST Armor WIP. I modeled this detail on the Halo 3: ODST hip armor in Fusion360 and I think some people might find it useful. They look to be mounts for the pouches you see on many ODST's hips (like Dutch for example).

There are two versions in the zipped folder: one with a half inch block on the bottom for through-hole mounting, and one that will sit flush. Both versions have a left and a right. You can look at the reference pictures below but basically the triangular tabs face forward, and the long rectangular detail should be on top. These files are scaled for me, so resize as needed.

Here are renders of the STLs.

Keep it clean,

What a homie! we need to get a armory section for 3d files at some point.

 

[CrimsonViper97]

There's a free models section in the 3d modeling section, that's where I always look.

Yo!!!!!!! Sweet! Thank you!

Ooh, these could be useful for my ODST. May have to snag these. haha

A true hero right here!

I finally got around to printing these for my armor. As you can see, one has a little chip that I'll have to reprint, but this should give you an idea of their scale.

Note: This is the non surface-mount version.

Legend! I was just thinking about how to approach the thigh details, a lot of builds seem to miss them. I was planning to print some of the smaller details of my armor like the buckles and such, so this is absolutely perfect.

 

[Purplehazey]

Time to print abunch of these!

Like said on the Discord channel... "I need a printer!"

 

[CrimsonViper97]

Have some boot buckles! The internal channel is .75in wide for use with, you guessed it, .75in webbing.



For those of you who may be wondering what the heck this is here's a little photo.



Some people play halo... something something.

Edit: disclaimer I haven't printed these yet.

Also, since there seems to be no actual name for these I'm calling them the "Buck-le".

jazzy boy gang gang. Definitely need to print some of these for my kit

These are fantastic and will be some of the first things that grace my brand new 3d printer
