Reach Spartan Helmet Nvg/rangefinder Attachment Build

[Halo 1]

Hi Spartans,



I was one of the few proud owners of Brandon's REACH Helm and when I got it, I was stoked. [Thanks Brandon]. It was a wonderfully well made piece of art and IMHO, only lacked the NVG/Range-finder mount to make it even more perfect. That said, and with Brandon's blessing, I decided to build one from scratch, using the stills from the REACH trailer.



Took me awhile to get it done, with one false start, that actually helped with sizing/scale etc...It's built using PVC 3mm hard foam card and resin.



The build...

The finished product, with angled front and 'forked' greeblie: [cuse the hair strand on one of the holes]

LMK what you think...



Stay safe,



Tim.
