Working on my first Mark VI

[thorn696]

Wow you have allot done, And it looks great

[GothX]

Great work! I particularly like how you represent the left shin with its uncut print out lol. Are you going for the full on green chief or is it going to be a custom color?

[Hyperballistik]

Nice job your almost to the fun part (Body Work), I think you took the best approach to compleating a suit, at least with all the parts pepd all you have to do is finish up the body work, it makes things alot easier knowing that everytime you finish a piece you don't have to go back and pep out the next part, I think this is what helped me finish my Busa suit, hope to see more updates and keep up the great job

I took that pic to show my friends how it looks when unfolded lol, I'm thinking of coloring this one green like master chief, when i make a new one ill make it a diff color. I figure i would give this one to one of my nephews......maybe lol.

nice work my good sir the peps look spot on but one word of advice keep the visor in so the helmet doesn't warp trust me ive done this before and it looks shit when its all warped and stuffed :P just cut the visor out later with a dremmel when its glassed

Looks great! Keep it up.

And I agree with Bmth, keep that paper visor pepped in. I didn't do it regrettably, and instead used tons of crafting sticks, and lots of hot glue to help the helm hold it's shape. Thankfully it turned out ok.

Good luck with the rest of the armor!

Hey everyone, yeah is should have done that, i had the braces on but not the visor. The top of the helm is not shaped right so im gonna try and fix that. Think ill use a hammer and elbow grease lol. Other wise im gonna re-do it. Ive also started the fiber glassing processes, so it will be awhile before i place pics up. I wont be able to do any trimming with the rotary since its 10 degress outside, might have to wait till it gets nicer out.

Hi I am doing the same build and I am using the forarms made by flyingsquirel should I be able to just slide them on after i have finished peping them?

[NeoSMM]

They fit me but its very tight, so i had to cut a small slid at the opening, hope this answers your question.
