Scaling Halo Reach Forearms

[jmevanko]

When i looked at the size of the forearm pieces, and noticed that they are only 5 inches long. However, when i measure my arm, it came out to be around 8 inches from the bottom of my elbow to the top of my wrist. Do the Spartans just have really short arms? or am i measuring from the wrong spots?

to get an accurate scale, and comfortable fit, bend your wrist and elbow ( make a muscle basically). Measure from the palm of your hand, to about an inch from the crease at your elbow. Mine came out to be 9 inches.

I did that and the big top-plate thing extends past my elbow. Is this too long?
