Odst Buck Wip

[Dan]

The scale looks different?

 

[Flyerfye]

He said the first one was too big, so he made another, slightly smaller.

 

[sierra092]

Thanks for filling in for me Flyerfye. Some could say its a waste of paper and card, but for some reason i'm being such a perfectionist on this build (I'm not normally like this at all)

 

[Flyerfye]

Heh, just happened to read that further up there.

Being a perfectionist is GOOD on this stuff. By the way, looking great so far. I'm impressed you had both the time and patience to do 2 pep builds of that dang helmet.

 

[sierra092]

It really wasn't to bad, i did ral parthas' unfold secondly so that was easier (albiet more awkward in places).

I might do the second shin after the hip plates.

Good luck on your odst build aswel Flyerfye. What are you using for you visor?



@Dan W. The newer helmet is 2cm smaller then the first one. It doesn't sound much but believe me, it makes a difference makes me look more like a person rather then a bobble head toy.

 

[Flyerfye]

The Ral Partha unfold is the only thing that makes that helmet bearable, in my opinion. And thanks! I think I'm going to end up cutting a motorcycle visor to fit as I do believe Link's visor is the wrong size for this helmet. Good luck to you as well!

heres my pep of Nightshade's new odst torso.

 

[Underdogg13]

Nice job so far, the torso looks as though you scaled it a tiny bit too big, but it still looks good. I'll be watching this thread.

 

[rockoutloud211]

Looks Great! What colors you planning on going with? Original?

 

[haji]

Your going to want to trim down the back plate. Its to long to fit the profile of ingame or weta

 

[sierra092]

The torso feels quite snug. They will also be room to grow as I'm planning on having it all ready for an expo next may.

The colours I'm doing it are Gunmental grey for base. With a silver chest, and tan stripes. As I'm doing bucks colour scheme.



Is it me or did my wip get moved because It was in the Noob forum originally

 

[Wired]

Looking good frazer. I should really get a move on with mine, I keep forgetting >_<



It'll be done for may, I can guarantee that much upcoming hollidays will leave pleanty of spare time to pepepep

 

[Adam Anderson]

dude your stuff loos great, and im not doin the torso model. i would go INSANE at the top where all those little folds are. and are you going to vaccuform your visor? casue if you do id like to know how to color it a dark color.

 

[sierra092]

Yeah I'm vacuum forming my visor using clear HIPS. Then using this to paint it: http://405th.com/forums/index.php?s...isor paint tutorial&fromsearch=1&#entry292152

The small bit normally arent there in Hardings unfold but i changed the unfold and eventually over complicated it for myself I shouldn't have changed it really.

The small parts really aren't hard.

 

[sierra092]

Slightly small update.

But I've pepped all the torso pieces.

 

[the stig]

Looks good but that torso is WAY too big man.

 

[sierra092]

@Stig. Now that i think of it, i guess it is too big :/

That was a big piece so i dont really want to do it again though.

Thanks for pointing it out

 

[Wired]

wow you've gotten so far ahead of me xD I reckon you could keep your torso as it is, and overlap the pieces when we attach them to the airsoft vest.

 

[sierra092]

I've some updates to show you all. Will post pictures later.

Resined 1 shin, chest, centre stomach plate, 1 hip plate and the butt packs.



Edit, Here are the pics

 

[ureeka]
