    I've made the amor, but i dont know how to make a visor!?!

    If you were building a Halo 5 helm or wanted that kind of visor look, here is another shop. For the Master Chief helmets most people use motorcycle visors from what I hear. This kind of question really needs the version of helmet you have in order to get a more helpful, specialized answer.

    Tutorial for using DaFrontlineTrooper's ODST Armor templates.

    So to start off, I will be doing the shins. For measurement references, I am 6'1". Here is a picture of one completed shin. Looking at the templates, the tall piece that is in the middle is the piece that goes over the front of the leg. The thinnest part at the top should be built as wide as...
