Halo 3 - Custom High Detail Models

[Nicktendo]

Wow, glad to hear you're OK FS. Living in Alaska, I know how scary that black ice can be.

Glad you're still with us. (And I mean "us" as in "the living," not just the forum here, heh.)

P.S. My vote goes to forearm. No one has really tackled the detail on that piece yet, and after seeing your torso, I believe in you!

Hahah errr, I thought the pocket lookin things were on the side, kind by the hips?? Damn I wish I had my Halo Art book

You guys suck

Redeux is what I meant

WEARING is what I meant *cries* I just make cool looking stuff, why do I have to spell well!!! *cries more*

eh? they are... arnt they? wait, whats redeux then? aww, its ok, most creative people are bad at spelling(including me!!! dislexia got me a free laptop!!!!booyea!!

Wow. I just now realized you were from Ireland. What part are you from? I took a vacation there, and I might have been near your home. I'm supprised you guys don't have wrecks on those incredibly sharp curves.

About the armor though, I don't care which one you do next. I just want it all done. NOW!!!

haha, yup. hmm well i doubt you were near my house, im a good bit out, but im county wicklow, near a town called Blessington. i say near in italics because im realy 6 miles out into the wilderness from blessington. oh and theres loads wrecks every week, mainly because irish people are to stupid to slow down. then again its mainly the boy racers.

We know what you meant Skullcandy, Sorry we were just messing with you. I'm really bad at typing myslef.
Here to make you feel better
Back to subject, I really think (voted) shoulders. It would kind of complete the torso in a way, being the closet thing to it besides the already finished (perfect) helm.

dancing kittys can make anyone feel better!!!! hmm, i see what you mean. good thinkin. i was guna start on the arms next but i just wanted to check if there was something loadsa people wanted first. haha, thanks.

Sorry, small favor request.....


Will the torso have the black vents that are on the back near the bottom center? If not, I can improvise. What wondering, cause I've got final touches on the helmet then molding begins! Let's see what I can do with your torso model, hehehe :tutu:

 

[flying squirl]

oh yea, i shoulda said mentioned that. they'll be there, i just temporarily took them out while i was working on the bits around them.
i was thinkin of having the front lower bit as a sperate peice that can move allowing for a bit more articulation. yes no?

any problems/requests/suggestions, as always, welcome.

 

[Skullcandy Girl]

Oh here's a question on the torso, how many pages do you think it will be?? And will there be a scale tester?

I just had another question when I get to the point of fiberglassing etc... when should I take out the supports? Or do I just cut them out after I fiber glass and resign the inside?

P.S. I'll have goofy pics of myself with the shambles of my first helmet up soon

 

[Razgriz]

Wow, that new torso, is well, amazing! I can't wait to build it! Is there an ETA on the finished project? The small taste you gave us looked awesome enough as it was.

Also, why do I always choose the worst time to build something? I printed and built your high-def helmet a day before you posted your new one.

I believe the ab part, that you're refering to, being separate is a very good idea. I believe that's how MC is able to bend and move in the first place, and I was planning on making that a separate piece in my future armor. (I'm waiting till after the holidays and after I move, if it happens, till I actually start construction of any kind of armor.) I was wondering when someone else might pick up on that. Good stuff as always, keep up the good work.

I would love to have the lower front seperate and maybe with alil excess mater running up under the upper piece.

+1 for a really simple size tester for the torso.

Hi sorry for the Spam,

first of all, all of you guys are really great, exspecially those who take this amount of time to construct the files and share it. Big respect. I found this site about one day, and was so impressed of all the work and passion that all of you put in your armor.

I want to build a Master Chief helmet with this version of files, but i have one problem. I printed out and build the Test model, just for a size comparison but i had to cut out all parts of the last row, wich is the nearest to the neck, to get nearly into the helmet, i didn´t know that exactly because my first attempt is build with normal paper and when i take it on it warpes. I read that some people had to cut holes in order to get into helmet, but is there somebody else who was forced to cut all of that row? Or has similar sizes like i do? I am about 1,84 cm high and have a head circumference of about 58.5 cm. I read in another topic that the Master Chief is 86 high and helmet is 31.9, when i ad 2 inches to my size, my helmet must be about 27.6 cm high, that about 0,6 higher than the first attempt and i think i have to remove nearly all the neckrow to get in. I know there are some scale threads and maybe someone has asked this stupid question before but my english is not so good, and its verry hard to read all those threads at once, so please forgive me, even for posting my question here, hope somebody can help me. I am so faszinated and motivated to build one, but i it shall look nice, and not like a piece of crap or too oversized so please help me.

Thank you very much und greetings from Germany

Wow, that torso file looks amazing. Anyway, have fun this weekend but be safe!

Looking forward to your return.

Quick question, (for when you are back) do you plan on adding the lower part of the back along the spine? You know, the scaly black things.

EDIT to reply:

Guten nacht! (It's night here...)
That's not spam. Legitimate question. (And thank you for being polite!) Let's see, converting your height to inches tells me you're about as tall as me, and my first helmet build was at 28.6cm tall. (That was after adding 3 inches to my height.) For that one, it's a tight squeeze, but I can get my (big) head in without any cutting. (But that is with a different model from this one.) I don't know what your body build is like, but I think guys our height should probably add even more. I've got some more measuring to do, but I actually think I'll be scaling my helmet to 29cm tall. (I do have a bigger build.) Like I said, i need to do more measuring, since it's important to me that all the pieces aren't scaled differently.
