I guess those three dudes can literally haz Recon.
Whoever made those three master peices is one hell of an artist.
If your here oh great Recon man hear my plea, make me a sweetass Recon helmet for me.

i dont know why... but to me it looks like its too perfect... something keeps pulling me in the vaccume formed or plastic milled area in my mind... but if not then wow.

It's got to be sculpted. There's no way that that could be CNC'd unless the maker had access to a 5-axis machine, the type that a lot of high end car companies use for their engine block masters. But it was probably sculpted from plasticine, molded, cast, edge sanded, remolded, and then the 3 cast from that (That's how I would've done it). Personally, I feel like anyone who tries to clay sculpt a helmet has balls of solid bronze! I've got dope sculpting skills-
Case in point-
This was back in High School, The iguana is porcelain and the rest of the clay body is earthenware. The color is airbrushed acrylic.
but I would never try to freehand a helmet, especially since I've been spoiled by CAD and Pep.
Of course, the Recon master could've been done in an SLS machine and then had a gel coat put over it for smoothness. But that would've cost $1000-$2000 at the very least!

I'd like to get get a few better higher quality photos. It looks good from what I can tell, I am wondering about the additional panel lines.... artist interpretation?
Well done anyone who gets recognized by B.Net for anything costuming related.

My big question is, how did they get Bungie's address to send them something?
I have been trying for months to get a hold of Bungie in order to send them a copy of my 30 page thesis on Halo as a Modern Recreation of Classic mythology, but they only list the one generic help desk email on their site, and they are apparently super protective and secretive of their mailing address.

I thought this was the address to Bungie Studios:
434 Kirkland Ave
Kirkland, WA 98033
But I can be wrong, maybe one day I will take a trip up there to verify.

seems to have some of their creative adjustments they make on trademarked armor.
but the detail is like nothing I've ever seen. My gut reaction says rube.. it seems to have the same type of detailing found in the ODST helm.
that had to be the best helm I've ever seen.

thats about 15 minutes form my house. That address, unless i'm mistaken, is from their old days when they first started up. right up until their initial dealings with microsoft over halo.
