    Sizing Your Armor To Your Body?

    Size it according to the actual size of your head. Ignore scaling numbers and all that other nonsense. Also, throw out the idea of a "good fit" for the helmet meaning that your head automatically fits through the opening. If you do it correctly, it almost certainly won't. The helmet, like the...

    Does Anyone Make Mk Vi Armor Anymore?

    It would certainly be great to get back to work on mine. However, I have to wait for more accommodating weather, seeing how everything from here on out is fiberglassing and bondo for me.

    Sizing Your Armor To Your Body?

    He's clearly having difficulties with the program itself. Get off his back. That being said, SomeguynamedJayke: I would highly recommend looking online for some video tutorials on YouTube for how to use the Pepakura software. There are tons of them out there, many linked within the 405th...

    Roxas S. Embers Mark Vi Wip

    Two quick things: 1. Superglue is your friend. I built my entire suit using superglue, and while you'll stick your fingers together a fair amount, it's better than burning them. 2. Regarding the helmet: Basically, you need to worry only about the size of your head, not the opening of the...

    That's looking awesome. Keep it up, man.

    Halo 3 Odst Will Screw Up Your Xbox

    I don't want to turn this into a lengthy debate, but I will say this: 1. I don't really trust the techs at Xbox customer support. I've had them actually make my problems worse on numerous occasions in the past. So please, if you don't already, take anything they tell you with a very large grain...

    Halo 3 Odst Will Screw Up Your Xbox

    Well, if you were just letting people know that you had some technical difficulties, that would be one thing. Unfortunately, the title of your thread is "Halo 3 ODST Will Screw Up Your Xbox". Since the vast majority of people have not experienced this, it has not made any sort of widespread news...

    Halo 3 Odst Will Screw Up Your Xbox

    I have never had this problem, nor have I ever heard of anyone I know having this problem either. While I feel for you and your technical difficulties, this is a misleading thread that should probably be closed.

    My Mark Vi Armor

    Keep it up. This is still looking awesome. On the bondo adhesion issue, would you say that one should definitely apply primer before any bondo is applied? The weather is starting to improve where I'm at, and I'm starting to look ahead.

    My Sons Costume

    Your son had to have been so happy. That's really cool. Really, really cool - one of those things that becomes a childhood memory that you never forget. On the other hand... it would be sort of suck to be the other parents after their Halo-loving children came home and asked them why THEY...

    Couple Questions About Casting A Pep

    On the first thing, that's actually exactly what I just did to my Mark VI helmet. It works great, and certainly makes it stronger - I'm actually using it instead of any fiberglass at all. Feel free to check it out in my progress thread linked in my signature, if you're interested. Within that...

    Amazing Animatronic Elite Costume

    Yeah, I would say that it's been posted before and that it's old news, but I can't get over how cool that is. It's really mind-blowing.

    Aarons Odst Quick Build

    If you can, it would be a good idea to edit one of those to include all of them and then delete the rest. Hopefully before the laser-eyed monkey sees it.

    Schaeden's Odst Build Thread

    Very nicely done! After that helmet, it's pretty much all downhill... until you get to the legs... but other than that, it's a cakewalk.

    My Recon

    I'm not so sure that you can really say he has more experience than I do with Pepakura simply because he's been on the forums longer. Not that it's of any consequence either way. Like I said. The first part of his response, I was in total agreement with. It was just the assertion that 27cm would...
