Hello! This is my first post here but I’ve been a long time fan! I finally got around to making my Spartan from reach and I hope to have it done by Christmas ish this year!

The helmet is 3D printed by LobbsterCosplay with files from NerdForgeDesigns

The helmet didn’t quite line up properly so I took advantage of UV resin to fill in where the seams had left gaps

I spent around 6-7 hours sanding by hand with Bondo and Filler Primer.

I used a white base coat and painted details using dark metal acrylic.

Hey hey good seeing you here! Can't wait to see what you do for the full suit after that gorgeous job with the helmet.
 
The helmet looks amazing!!!! The paint job highlights and weathering look awesome! definitely an amazing job
 
Looks awesome, you could probably turn some of those into flashlights, but honestly it's probably fine as is.
Love the operator helmet, spectacular job!

Dude this looks insane! Are you just doing a helmet build or is there armor to come? I love to see these reach builds!
 
I’m definitely doing a full suit! Waiting on some custom files to be done :)
Awesome! I look forward to seeing what’s in store. You said you’re getting custom files? Is there something different you’re doing that hasn’t been made or going with a different creator?
 
I wasn’t quite happy with the weathering because on camera it sorta looked like one white mass, so I took the extra time to really push dark paint into the recessed areas to bring out the geometry and details to make it less uniform

Sorry for the massive hiatus! I was dealing with some school stuff and there were some delays with my printing but I have the kit I need for the armor so it’s coming together pretty fast!
