Made all the requirements yesterday and looking to join the Arizona Regiment. I live in Sierra Vista, very far southern Arizona. Looking at the map I only see 1 other person near me but I want to join up anyways lol

That I honestly don't know. That would require printing it out and putting it all together as is and I don't know anyone that has done that with these files. If it is scaled like most others they are rendered from the game files. That means unaltered they would be set up for master chief. I...

as i understand it you want to adjust scale based on the longest measurement. Since the chest does not go from collar to waist you would want to measure from shoulder to shoulder. Your best bet is to grab an image of chief and measure him the furthest points on him to yourself. You will probably...

You do not need those pieces unless you are making the paper build. If you are doing the foam floor mats you have everything you need on the pages. Just remember to go into the 2D menu and scale each piece for yourself as they are not currently scaled for any specific size. If you want take a...

I got a cheap heat gun from harbor freight it was like 20 bucks. I found it is just like a hair dryer. Just keep it moving. If you see smoke its to much. Just heat it up a bit than start bending it into the shape you want and repeat until it stays in that shape. Masking tape or painters tape...

Ok so I have been all over town and have yet to find anything that will work for a visor that looks good. Hobby lobby has some plastic sheets but not in color, for some reason they now only carry clear. That works if your using like a gold window tint but I don't really like it. The helmet from...

As I understand it they all connect to each other. The reason for the float is because the thin strips that would normally connect them as a paper build are taken care of by the thickness of the foam. It will take allot of toying with the find the right angles to cut at to make it work the way...

You will probably be looking at 1828.8 for your scale. In the pep designer the scale is in mm i believe so you want to find out exactly how many inches tall you are. If you are 6 foot even that would be 72 inches you can than convert that to mm. I just use google to do the conversions that I need.

Thank you very much for that information. Time to get started.

So while the link for face shield's doesn't work I was able to copy the link and place it into a browser and find the direct website. After going there I found they do have face shields but they are a little pricey but good quality since they are made for every day helmets. I slightly cheaper...

Hello ThePaladin, the forum location that may have what your looking for is on the main page under the title Non-halo Costumes and Props. I don't know much about Mass Effect but when your in that forum go the the right hand side of the screen close to the top and there is a search function that...

Hello ThePaladin, yeah unfortunately many of the links take you to the main page. Is there a specific file your looking for that we can help you locate? If it is just general files for armor The Armory tab at the top can take you to the armor forums to look for pepakura and foam files.

Are the dotted lines for bevels? Trying to make sense of everything as this is my first helmet build.

Yeah I tried the spray foam at first and it did not go well lol. I have just been cramming each piece full of stuffying from Jo-ann Fabrics. I have a few gallons of Barge Cement and lots of EVA foam floor mats so I may end up trying that. Thank you for the tip.

That is an awesome idea. Currently working on a duct tape dummy for making pasterns and holding armor but I may change to something like this lol it looks allot easier and sturdier.
