[QUOTE="travisgmyers, post: 461099, member: 8667"] Hey guys, I'm new here so I figured I'd start a thread and chronicle my first project. I'm going to start simple...very simple and build a knife from Halo Reach. I did a lot of origami when I was younger so I'm not too worried about learning the technique for the paper models but I've only worked with resin a few times while assisting my boss. I'm planning on using this knife and then maybe a pistol or something as practice before trying to make a helmet (and possibly a whole suite). I've spent a few days just reading up on techniques and browsing the forums. It seems like everyone here is very helpful and there are some great tutorials! I'm a noob, but am excited to learn from everyone and pick up a new hobby. I did NOT create these files. I got the files for the knife through carpathiavh99 who made the model from blueprints Juliet76 posted.
