Oh my, looks like you hit a bump in the road. Too bad it came out small.

[SGT Razor]

Hahahaha, *pew, pew!*

I thought it was going to be a lot bigger when I saw it in the other pics. You deceiver!

Do you plan on sending them the correct scale?

 

[Macattack64]

yea why is it so small? :\

 

[David]

I think that the size you made it is perfect. If you would have scaled the gun right, it would probably weigh around 10kg. I think it was a good thing you made your mistake.

 

[MandoMan531]

looks awesome, should maybe be a TAD bigger, but not by too much. You dont want to make it full scale- 89.9 cm long, because youre not an 8 foot tall supersoldier, it would a look bit goofy.

example, "full Scale" plasma grenade is 15 or so centimeters in diameter. Thats almost the size of one of those mini basketballs. in the game they look to be about the size of a baseball.

When i made my BR it was about 73 cm long. sadly i didnt get to finish it, which is kinda good because now i get to start over.

I just make all my weapons in proportion to my body size and in proportion to other weapons, if it feels comfortable for you to hold then i say stick with what you have. think of it as being a real rifle, if you would be comfortable shooting with it, then its probably right.

BTW are you planning on using a Metal filler and detailing it etc?. i have a link to a decent metal filler/glaze that may help you.

My BR is 34" long.
Guestimated from watching the Halo2 trailer (Space jump)

Looking pretty good cept for the size). So did you send off to get the pieces or did you do it yourself on a CAD/CAM machine?

I sent it off. CAD design is mine.

 

[sparton 110]

Cool! What program did you use and how much did it cost (sorry that was a bit rude)

 

[Overlord Ian]

Dont let them get to you with the scale, it's not that bad, in fact, if no one would have mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed.

 

[CPU64]

If you don't mind the suggestion, instead of cutting so many "inside" sections, why not just cut out the sides, top, bottom and back sections,( same for the clip), and then have the parts spot welded into a more "box" like model? Even better if you use aluminum..

That way it looks good, and not so heavy.

I mean, since you're splurging on the CNC cutting, whats one more expense by welding it up?
That's what I would do. I can weld it together, but I can't get it cut..
