Hey guys, for the past few weeks I have been working on a Halo 3 Battle Rifle and I am just starting an SMG with interchangeable Silenced barrel. Here is the progress so far. Both of these are from Sliced files but the SMG file was made by me by a drawing and using Adobe Illustrator and a program called Flexi Sign.
.

Dang! Is Flexi Sign freeware? By the way, your work looks awesome! Make sure to post more pics of your progress for us to see!

I'm not sure if Flexi Sign is freeware, all I know is that my dad used to use it to make signs and I will make sure to upload progress everyday. I'm trying to get some training uniforms for the other crew members for Wizard Con MN on May 2nd

I would build them out of cardboard but I decided MDF is easier for me to get because I can get plenty of scrap pieces from my dad's sign company.

That is a really good point. I will have to look into that for later weapons like the DMR, and Assault rifle.

Alrighty, here is the progress of tonight's shenanigans! Sorry about the flash in two of the images, my phone won't let me shut it off for the time being.

Looks awesome! Your scaling is perfect!
Might have to see if you're up for a commission of a M6C/SOCOM some day

In that case, you might want to make molds of your creations. Mold making isn't cheap, but there are a lot of people who'd pay for quality casts.

I actually planned on making molds, I plan on casting as many as I can for a film but for now I just need two of each and then I'm going to use camera tricks to make it look like I have more.

Gotcha! That sounds good, BoltLock. When does filming begin for that film of yours?

Filming starts May 4th, we have permission from my school to film during my study hall and we have full access to our music programs microphones and equipment.
