Hyper's Noob Foam Reach Armor Build

[Hyperballistik]

I really like your helms dude!!!!! Anywhoo, you should put together kits of your decals and offer them up, I know I would get some...lol.

Great work Hyper!

I would make decal kits up, but its a pain to find all the decals and most of the time when I do they are off a screen shot which means I have to go into photoshop and doctor them up, if anyone is making the same helmets that I have already made them for they can get ahold of me if they need some decals, and don't worry the EOD im putting together for you will come with decals on it but you don't get to see it till its done lol

Thanks everybody for all the comments, Now I just need to get this foam build finished

[Hyperballistik]

Ok now that im pretty much finished with my Halo 4 helmet now I can get this foam build finished, all I have left to make is the boots and hand plates, I am trying to finish this all in a week so I can wear this suit to MegaCon

Im posting pics of the chest piece that I painted today, I know its not that great but im new to this foam stuff. I still need to battle damage and weather the armor so its shiney I will take care of that in a few days and seal it with a flat clear, all I have is pics of the chest piece at the moment, Im going to try a post pics of the other parts tomorrow some are still in need of painting

Also incase anyone is wondering I did copy how Nick Nack Patty Wack made the neck seal except I didn't glue pieces of foam around the neck seal I used a soldering iron to make the lines because I hate cutting out those little pieces in foam also I got the same results

Let me know what you guys think



The Back


also I have leds for the suit so hopefully I can get those installed in time

You do really good foam work hyper, especially for being so new to it. Also, the collar turned out great. Keep it up buddy.

They're looking so nice TwT. What do you use to connect foam pieces?

I just use hot glue, sometimes if its being stubborn and don't want to glue together quickly I use Super glue gel to get them to attach together plus it gives it a nice clean seam then I just put hot glue on the inside of the 2 parts
