Agreed, the knife looks cool. Can't tell if it's silver or white thought?

Thanks dude and the chest did warp so I guess I will have to try a different way

That file doesnt have supports, so you could make your own next time and make sure it's nice and stable for fiberglass. I find that making my own supports works out better than the file's most of the time.

I agree with Aaron, just a strip of cardboard is good enough for supports. I've had to pep another chest and support it so it stays curved :p

Yeah, how did you strenghen the roflknife?



Thanks alot :p. The roflknife is just resined and then bondoed.





Aaron said:
Cobra, did you scale your knife bigger? the one i printed seems a little small :D



My knife is 20cm tall and it fits me perfectly or fits my hand so to say. You probably have bigger hands than me lol so maybe a couple of cm's taller.

Should I keep the ODST armor black or paint it gray. I would love it if you guys could tell what you would think will look better. Thanks

WOW :eek the nuts are a definate yes, that would look awsome. i think you should paint it gray, but make sure it's really dark with a distinction from black. ive only found auto primer though.

Colors have been decided. Tell what you think:



Black for ODST Armor

Silver for Details



Heavy Weapons: Red based on Dutch



Sniper: Sky Blue based on Romeo



CQB: Yellow based on Mickey



Leader: Olive based on Buck



These are our final color combinations. We are making a new squad of ODSTs not based on the game anymore. If you could tell me how to change the Description in the forum title that would be wonderful. Our names have not been announced yet but we are going to be a Special Ops ODST which are assassins and go onto dangerous missions and making teamwork the only Survival technique we have.



I hope you like the idea behind the series If you have any feedback or comments please feel free to post.
