Esy`s Mega build!

[Esy]

So small upgrade. I revive my resin printer and printed some detailed parts for my helmet. Im always fascinated how nicely it can print and how much hustle is to clean everything

In the meantime I printed my bicepse part and try to test fit it with the whole torso.
I do belive its having nice bulky heavy spartan situete im goin for. But Ill need to cut the ribcage and modify it a bit. Its blocking my arms bit too much.

And so you cannot say i was slacking it. I finish the back part of the halo tv series machinegun with details. And started working on the main body. Slowly but surely its coming nicelly!

And last message to anyone, check what you printing. Just finished printing the same part of the thights twice

Now I need to make my manequin so scultping the ribcage can be easier. And then Ill start working on my "musce suit" to hold the whole thing sit in place and make shoulders wider and thicken bit of my arms. At the end it will be covered bu underarmor. But still will be nice to have the suit which will help center the whole armor..

Make sure your wearing gloves and a respirator when using the resin and printer. But yea i love how clean resin prints look even right off the bed. maintenance on them is also easy but its all counter balanced by how hard the materials are to keep safe and secure.

the suit is coming along really well good job and im loving the turret updates.

Did a lot of printing, my two printer are going basically 24/7 will do update soon!

And I put some hours into my machinegun. Its getting close to be finish and imi looking forward to start printing and building this baby. Already ordered some aluminium pipes and bearings!

I would be cautious and do research with your local conventions on if you would be able to take this to a convention if there are alluminum pipes for the barrels.
I haven't looked into it myself, it may not even be an issue, but I would hate to hear you couldn't bring it to a con because of it.

Some alternatives could be wooden dowels, pvc (Likely too flexible?), or carbon fiber rods.

As I said, may not even be an issue, but make sure to double check around if you have any conventions in mind!

With the warning out of the way.. You're making great progress on this turret! I love this style way more than what Halo 4, 5, and Infinite have. Keep on plugin away, I look forward to seeing this turret project through!

Good thinking sir! Will check, I think if ill be able to pull everything and make it real, it would be a shame to not take it to any con. It will be my first suit I will build, but the time and energy I put in it is huge so people should see it atleast once.
