Thanks you.



I got bored (again!) as a result of the snow...I couldn't bondo



But check this out!

God, I almost have a small cache of Halo-themed weapons. Captain Keyes would be happy



Ninja 112, the easter egg dye did not work, as the dye would not bond to the plasic, I'll probably end up using paint (my brother gave me a gallon bag full or oil-based ones) or mixing the dye with white glue.

That is some pretty nice work ya got there. And good improvising on that spike grenade too. That was a very good find.

SAND PAPER



Just give it a light sanding all over the piece

or you could always rondo the inside... that's what I always do

I wish I was bored! look at all the cool stuff I could make! Unfortunatly I am not instead I have too much work to do.

THERE IS A GARAGE SAIL HERE!!! I hope I get as lucky as you.

I think a saw a guy mix some gold paint with water and airbrush it on. That lookes pretty good. It was on this site so I wold search it up.

for some reason bondo scares me. I think it's because I don't own power tools so it looks like too much of a hassle than it's worth. But it's cool to see how other people do things.

Don't forget that bondo smells funny

Requires an airbrush

I don't know if you have a harbor freight around you but they have airbrushes with the compressor for only 60 dollar or so. just in case you want to look for one.

As opposed to a $30 visor?...

just so you know, they sell a paintball mask that has like the same lenses that come in the same tint, ill look for a link...

the lenses are fog resistant and you should be able to find shiny gold ones for like 20 bucks. just a helping idea, no guarentee its big enough..

That lense doesn't look at all similar....

The security armor lense has no Nose bridge space...

Well the problem is there isn't a visor out there at least that I have seen that will work for the Security helmet

 

[GMer56]

I will probably begin the security helm this summer. Oddly I managed to get my head into my other helmet easily :S

Good news! I have finished a shoulder piece (kind of), will post pics!

Thanks, sorry about that

Anywho, My deadline is coming up this weekend... I still have sanding and bondoing to do, I'll post some pics eventually. I just thought everyone would like to know.

 

[GMer56]

Well... didn't make the deadline. Still finished the armor and wore it for my LAST LAN CLUB... I graduated high school (yay...), so... here are the pictures.

BTW, like the new forums ^^
