Sean Anwalt's Halo 4/5 Master Chief build

[Sean Anwalt]

That's awesome. I'm thinking about not doing the torso until the whole thing is assembled, buckles and all. Think that'd be best?

Update: the backpack vents at the top are another detail I'm not happy with; a lot of builds I see just inset the square, but when i look at it it appears hollow almost, like this:


So I did this:

Think this is the right track? I think so...

I dig it! Although I have not really studied this armor variant in detail. But it looks convincing. I've seen people leave them wide open

 

[Sean Anwalt]

That would work, too, but what I'm seeing in my reference photo, it isn't wide open, either.

I agree, leaving it open could just look unfinished.

I'm not happy with it, but here is the unrefined, detail-less jetpack.

I didn't want to upload the picture, but you can't improve without accountability, so here I am. Lol

I have 6 pieces with shoe goo drying right now, as well.

 

[Sean Anwalt]

Take two jetpack and I feel like I'm wasting foam. Got more details, though!

This looks pretty darn good work to me! Do you have a game reference photo to compare to? Any seam work can be sealed up with quikseal, detail looks nice!

 

[Dire]

I can't tell, got a reference pic? But, you know what, that is a very clean piece

Then that is really, really close, I think its good

Yeah I agree, other than need that circular nozzle part, it looks pretty darn good. I can't tell what's down inside that big dark rectangular area, might be small detail in there to capture too.

Thanks, zachturner009, but I think I can do better. I'm going for as accurate and as clean as I can get, and I'm sure I can make these less...I dunno, bubbly? More smooth?

Yeah, the nozzle is going in last, I just left a hole there so I know where it goes.

Inside the big dark rectangular area is another detail indentation that I missed, but not too worry, I'll catch it next time.

Thanks for the input, guys!

Fine v2 better be amazing then

FINALLY have got the curaisse complete.
It's a tiny bit too big, but I don't care for right now. The jetpacks are not attached because they need to be redone.

 

[Shadowshail]

You made me go into an anxiety attack because of how good that looks...

Dude this looks freaking fantastic!! Awesome job! Size looks perfect, I bet it will be great once everything else is done.

 

[Dire]

Yeaup, that's awesome, nice job!

Haha thanks, shadow. I'm giving myself anxiety attacks trying to get it done! I'm hoping to have the jet packs done in ther best day or two. Then I'm going to try my hand at a foam helmet!

Thanks, ExCeLLuR8. I think the size is too big, but right now I'm going forward with everything else, then at the end if I can redo it, I will.

Yeaup, that's awesome, nice job!

Thanks! I'm trying for tier one with this baby, but we'll have to see how it goes with the rest of it.

I have the whole thing being shoe goo'd right now to make it "mob proof", though enough to be pulled at or pushed around. I hope.

Thanks for the encouragement, guys!
