Once I get going with it, I'll try to remember to put up some progress photos. I just got in my Adafruit bits, so right now I'm really focused on the HUD side of things.

Thank ya kindly! Right now the main objective is actually building a motorcycle helmet. I'm already working on a Locus-based design, and I wanted something else that looked a little more natural and less evil. I'm not normally ODST-inclined, partially because of just how popular the newer...

Hey folks, been a long time since I've been on here. Can someone convert the .pdo file in the Armory, here, into an .obj or .blend or something? I simply need the helmet file converted over into something Blender imports. I'm now running a Linux setup and sadly Pepakura doesn't work on it...

It is seriously looking great, Mara. I can't wait to see you wearing the whole ensemble

No breaks for you! Lol.. seriously tho, I think we've all had a good time kicking this horse to death and then some. I don't think anyone has an hurt feelings bit I think we can go ahead say it's done for discussion. OP, good luck in your search. At least you have better expectations than the...

And the Admins enforce the rules and sometimes make them. They don't always enforce them either. I'm not sure why you're being so confrontational about stuff lately.. Back on topic...

Looks nice man! Have any more pictures? Marines love pictures =P

There's nothing wrong with getting armor commissioned and anyone who looks down on it needs to check themselves. I'm pretty sure an Admin/Moderator/whatever they call themselves here will tell you to look in the marketplace and speak with someone there. They don't normally like posts like this...

There actually is a way, potentially, but I'd have to look and see if it's manipulatable. The theory I have is if the model has materials attached to it, you could potentially make the different parts separate items as you add them to your project and add materials in the menu. Not sure if you...

Because I didn't take the time to lay out my build logically, I've numbered my pages and double check in Pepakura to see what pieces I need to move forward in a particular area and then just draw arrows next to them on the paper. It looks dumb, but it works great and it's a lot easier than...

Do you have an undersuit ready? I may have missed it in all of the awe-inspiring selfies, but that seems like the one thing you're missing for a perfect sans-helmet Palmer.

Okie dokie, sounds like a talented man

Forgive my ignorance, but I think I missed the memo.. what is DFT again?

Just keep plugging along, Dirts! I do my pep work during lunch these days because I'm in the same boat as you.

I cannot agree with ZP180 more about finding a safe place to store your project. I came back from the bathroom the other night and found our kitten had bit and bent the little progress I've made on my helmet and I about beat the tar out of her and had to hunt for a good hiding spot for my project.
