Not long after talking to my boyfriend about them, I started playing the Halo games and immediately fell in love with them. I had also been wanting to make some sort of armor for a cosplay but I wasn't sure which armor to do- right up until I played Reach. Sooo here we are lol. I figured I'd start a thread for it while I'm here.
I didn't change up too much about my spartan because of how much I like the base armor. I might change a few small things but for now, this is what I'm going for (using MoeSizzlac's models):

So far, I've got the armor mostly scaled in Armorsmith and I also started printing the helmet. It's taken SO many attempts to even get the first layer to adhere, but after some bed leveling, speed adjustments, and persistence, I finally got to at least this point:

I'm praying that I can successfully do this- I've never printed anything that took more than maybe like, 8 hours before. This is going to be around 4+ days so I'm a bit nervous, especially after the terrible failure that I had the last time I tried to print something overnight. But with this, I've got past the point where it's just supports and a bit of the actual helmet is there! So this gives me hope, even though there are a few points that I'm a little nervous about.
That's all for now- expect me to talk wayyyyy too much on this thread. I'm excited about this project and hope that I can make it happen! If anyone's got any tips, do tell!
