Foam COMPLETED ONI Operative/ODST Armor!

[Dire]

I wanted to try color shift paints on one half of ornament.

Another idea I'm thinking of is dying the other ornament green and using like a circle light for it, something like this.

 

[Dire]

I just slid it in place for now but here is what it looks like on the armor and I took pictures at different angles to show the color shift.


I kinda like this look!

That color shift looks awesome. This ONI ODST build is coming along super nicely. Are you gonna be at Dragon con with this bad boy?
Would love to get some pics with you.

Done made the gauntlets twice but they just seemed warped, so one more should be good

Got some progress on the v3 gauntlets.

Still have a couple of pieces to build and detail pieces but got some errands to do, later!

Eh, I'm iffy on it, I put some foam braces in it to straighten out the vents

 

[TillXValhalla]

The vents are always hard to pull off. The only part of my bracers that are foam is the inner elbow gasket.

Well, third time I built it, might just look at another way of making it, might just buy a set, or might make a custom template for me.

But for now, I'm going to build the shins and thighs and boots, and revisit these....abominations.

 

[Dire]

I heard tales of the odst shins, so I'm planning ahead by making the back lower half have elastic straps, I'll upload some pics later if an idea

 

[Dire]

May have goofed the shins a little bit, just a slight scale problem, see i have this thing about gaps between armor pieces, specifically the knee and the shin sooooooooo its a little too big.

But hey, the profile/silhouette looks awesome!

 

[Dire]

Finished the shin, I wanted a whole piece so I used elastic straps at the bottom, and it fits snuggly. Here are the pics!.

This is where I decided to have my elastics and it proved to be a good spot for keep the silhouette.
Here is the back side of the shins.


Then I combined the two pieces to make the shin(duh, you guys could have guessed that)


Also made two of them, I'll post both, ya know for proof.

Next is the knee guards/plates.
So later guys!

 

[Dire]

Imma rename this thread a little bit

 

[Dire]

Did I mentioned I built the knee guards.


Pretty dope right? Also attached it to the shins.

Next its thigh scaling time.

Waiting for more foam to come in, soooo scaling the thighs and making test pieces with the crappy floor mat foam

 

[Dire]

I got some of the thighs done, mostly the raised detail with those two square things.

Waiting on the 10mm foam to come in sooo thats all folks.

 

[Dire]

Alright got the main shape of the thighs, working on the inner thighs now, but here is the progress, working on both at once, but here look at them and like, follow, and obey.


These are stupid easy to make.
