Next up planned projects:
Project 1 – USNC M6D Pistol
Status – In Progress
Cutting and Sticking
This is my practice project, getting used to putting together Pepakura models. At this stage it is unlikely I will take it past the construction phase. However, once my armour is constructed I will probably do more work on it in terms of painting.

Project 2 – Mjolnir Mark VI Helm (Halo 3 Style)
Status – Planning
This is gonna be my first proper project, I thought I may as well jump in the deep end and get started on a helm. My thanks to flying squirl for his great 3d model.
From what I’ve read on the forums I’ve put together my plan below, please crit and make comments.

Project 3 - Mjolnir Mark VI Armour

After the helm is completed I will follow roughly the same guide to make the other pieces of armour (minus LEDs and visor of course
).
Feel free to crit everything, will be adding pictures of my pistol WIP soon.
