Hello 405th! After being a lurker on this site for a while, a fundamental abundance of free time in college (and inspiration from Instagram) has prompted me to start my first pepakura build. This thread is going to be for Halo: Reach armor that I will be building based off of a custom character I created on reddit some time ago named Agent Eastpointe. But it's basically the same armor combination that I used in Halo:Reach to play Nobel Six too.
I currently have two helmets in the works right now because I initially made a Rogue helmet, which turned out a bit too small before moving on to build East's signature Air Assault helmet, which fortunately turned out the perfect size. Instead of scrapping the Rogue helmet, I decided it would be the perfect medium to help me practice the resin / painting process so that I don't mess up my other helmet. And it's be so far so good although the prospect of fiber glassing was daunting at first. I'll start off with progress pic of the Rogue before I start on the Air Assault helmet and other parts of my custom build. I would love some creative criticism / pointers, especially if you notice something on the Rogue helmet that I could do better the next time around!
Now for some pictures!
Air Assault helmet- Pep finished
Rogue helmet- Pep & outside fiber glassed so far
