Greetings all 405th Members! So I've been browsing this forum for the past few weeks drooling over everyone's spectacular work and I dare say it's time I start my own. I will be building my Spartan III from Halo: Reach. So, without further adieu, let me introduce Spartan Vlädimyhr V-637 (anyone who gets the reference in the Service Tag can have a cookie):
I had to Photoshop the grenade belt on the Vanity picture because for some reason it's not included with the Assault/Sapper Harness. -_-
Anyone interested can check out all the Reference Screenshots I took here.

WIP Pictures for Helmet
So I have to say this is an amazing pep file. I had to build two helmets here, the first was pretty crappy as far as construction goes and I could barely get my head in it, much less put it on with my glasses on *facepalm* because it was 244mm tall. That's the last time I listen to my sister for any advice on scaling. Please excuse the bad picture quality, I took these with my cellular device since my camera was dead.

What I have so far
(I ran out of super glue last night)
So this is where I stand at the current moment. I plan on getting more super glue today after class and finishing up tonight. The right side is a little warped I know but most of it should come out when I put the left in, and if it doesn't then that's what Bondo is for. I'll upload more pictures either tonight or tomorrow of the finished Pep job and one of myself wearing it so you guys can get an idea of how big it is. That's all for now, let me know what you guys think so far!
