Hoping I've made at least a medium-high quality Halo 3 sniper rifle from cardboard, I have made this seemingly daunting project and have decided to at least attempt to become the God Of Cardboard (or at least a deity) enough introduction though, I present my work so far to be critically judged and made better thereof...

The middle of my project in the semi beginning

The whole sniper (a little under 5 feet)

Showing all of my time in some detail

My future plan is to have that flap flip down when you pull back the bolt

Bonus:sliced mauler (not going to finish probably but the drum spins and the bolt comes back.)
I feel I've done a great job except for conical pieces. I will hopefully resin it and put some type of filler on it (wood filler most likely have used it before)
 
looks damn good man keep it up i had used cardboard for the body building for my reach sniper that i made from a nerf recon....... keep it up man cant wait to c this thing done.....
 
Ahh I like the Reach sniper. Especially the grip. You've done a nice job on weathering, it really does finish a project. I'll have to wait for the weather to warm up to resining temperatures. P.S. are my pics showing on here, if not i would like to remedy that
 
I've just put on some resin, i will put up pics once I finish resining which will be when I get more paintbrushes to do so...
-edit- It cooled down too much which is why i haven't posted, because there int anything to post at the moment also School has gotten in the way

I have finished resining my sniper rifle, the fiberglass mat would have given it a funny texture, does anyone know how I can make it harder without the fiberglass resin?
