Great work!!! I love that style of painting, later when you get a chip somewhere in the paint it looks right. Keep it up!! Carter deserves it!
 
Well that's harsh, man. I'm sorry to hear that.

Think you'll get back on the horse with everything you learned from this? Sounds like she was a bitter woman, and you shouldn't let that bitterness get to the things you enjoy.
 
Whoa that blows man, sorry to hear that. Atleast you have the build experience if you decide to do another one. Was looking great.
 
I started reading this because i'm about to start a carter build, but i'm using foam. I think i'll keep my armor under lock and key to prevent that from happening to me..just in case. sorry to hear that man :( it was really coming together. I saw the primer picture and the initial battle damage and I thought "damn, this is going to looks fantastic" then ex smashed it all to bits :(

ANYWAYS, I think you should restart your build. You already know all of the process well, and you practically have already done it..you should be able to get back there in much less than half the time. :) nd if so, good luck! keep on peppin'
 
Thanks for the moral support guys i really appreciate it :)
I wanted to do something new and take my mind off of things for a bit. So I started the Iron Patriothttp://www.405th.com/f43/iron-patriot-wip-43328/
That being said with it coming to the cold time of year I don't really have anywhere warm to work with resin so ill just be peeping out a bunch of stuff till next spring.
I had plans to pep out the whole carter suit again once im done with my IP pep.
 
wow talk about battle damage'' :(

your build was coming along great ' can not wait to see your Iron Patriot' but you should go back and re-do your Commander carter at some point ,
this is a hobby for some of us a way of life for others what happened to you sucks no way around that but don't let it take you down'
if all you can do is pep till summer go for it , just remember Master Chief would never give up
