Hey, this is my second armor and i want to make a jun related reach armor for the next gamescom event in germany. my last armor took one year to finish and my new one have 3 month left ;)

The files i used:
Helmet: B1ahh - Jun Helmet
Chest: Reach V3 Foam template
Thighs: Reach Things by Rundown Foam Templates
Biceps/Shoulders: Reach biceps by Rundown, unfolded by remraf Foam templates (modified by me)
Shins: Foam Shin stencil V2 - (modified by me)
Gauntlet: Foam Forearm Stencil

and here is my finally finished Halo Reach Jun Mod Armor ;) hope you like the result. some parts (knee) was to small. i want to redo them... maybe :D the softarmor is great but not perfect in my opinion. i will try a new one with a higher quality. but... today was the hottest day in the summer and i wore this armor... it was freaking hot and sweaty :D

btw: i use the reach torso V3 foam templates and i have much problems with a few spots :) i will send a picture which spots i mean because the templates ignore these spots.

Looks detailed, how long did it take?

when i started i have 2 days in mind and only work on the chest while my helmet is drying.
after i realized that the work take more time than expected i contentrated my worktime on the chest. today i want to finish the chest and start the thigh.
worktime: maybe 15 hours, i think this could be better but this was my first time :D
 
Chest is 99% completed. you will see the missing part. here are the pics, hope you like the update

update: Shoulders are ready!
after a try with 204mm height i scale it a little bit to get a "heavy" look. now both are 210mm height. if anyone is interessted in the modified file by rundown (i have deleted some more parts of the foam template because they are unnecessary ;) Btw: it tooks 3,5 hours for both to cut the paper template, cut the pieces out of the foam and glue them together . the "details" tooks another 10 minutes each.

One Forearm is ready... but is it to huge? what do you think?
maybe i can fix the inside with padding so the forearm would be stay in position in the middle of my forearm.
