Hi everyone! Thought i'd share with you my noble 6 build that i just finished! This is my first serious cosplay build ever. I've done some small stuff before, an Iron Man helmet, a Captain America shield and a Boba Fett helmet, but never anything in this scale.
Here's a shitty pic of my Noble 6 from the game, from which i based my design on. I played as a female spartan (as seen in the picture), but since im male in real life i made a male costume. The colour scheme i used is the same as in the picture. Primary clour is dark grey, secondary colour is light gray.
I had only three weeks to make this suit because I'm planning to go to a convention coming up this weekend, so i had to skip some parts of the original design. For example i only made the default chest armor, skipped the tacpad and the utility kit on the thigh. I also went with black visor, because i didn't have time to order a visor online. So i just cut out some plastic from a big soda bottle and painted it with a black marker pen. Hey, as long as it works, right?
I actually started making the helmet about a year ago, but i didn't have time to finish it, so i picked it up again three weeks ago and decided to complete the whole suit. Sadly I didn't take a lot of progress photos, but i'll show you what i have.
Here's the finished helmet, with some lights on the UA/HUL attachment.
The back part of the chest armor is incredibly asymmetric, i kinda messed up on that part. Other than that i'm happy with it.
After this i made the bicep, shoulder, cod, and wrist pieces, here are some pics.
The bicep pieces was a nightmare to build. I'm a tiny guy, so the pieces i made from the pepakura files didn't fit at all, and if i scaled them down it just looked weird becuase they got super tiny. I decided to freehand the bicep pieces completely, and i'm pretty happy with it, even though they're not completely accurate. One of the shoulders is the ODST shoulder (my absolute favourite) and the other one is the UA/base security. It can't be seen in this pic becuase i was facing the other way. I freehanded the UA/base security shoulder too, because i couldn't find any pep files of it.
After this it all went very fast, and i finished the rest of the suit in about 1 and a half week. Here are all the pieces painted and some test fitting. I made the ab plate that goes between the cod and chest piece, and added a round piece because the ab piece didn't cover everything.
Chest piece and helmet after blackwashing, weathering and some battle damage.
I'll post some more pics of the finished suit in a minute!
