Here's a few ODST models I've been working on unfolding for my personal armor set. Nothing major, just some in-game models (I'm a bit of a perfectionist, I know they're low-res but I wanted models from the game. lol). The communicator and knife are from ODST, the forearm and elbow file came from the first person arm model in ODST, which is why it looks nicer than the world model. The chest and stomach piece came from Reach, because they're slightly nicer than their ODST counterparts. I did add the indentations on the stomach piece with a couple booleaned boxes, and I based their positions off of the actual texture and bumpmap of the model.

Also, there's this, for any modelers who are better than me (all of them). I was going to try to edit this, but it was built so lazily (sorry Bungie) that pretty much everything clips together and I just don't feel like solidifying everything to boolean properly and then connecting all the faces. There's probably a better way to do it, I'm just not a good modeler, so I'll leave it for someone else who knows what they're doing but may not know how to extract it.

And my question was... Which knife do you think I should use for my finished armor? I have two Ka-Bar knives. I have a standard Ka-Bar in black, and a Ka-Bar "Big Brother" in black. I was almost certainly going to use the Big Brother, because it matches the look and size of Buck's knife better than the standard, but the sheath it comes with is so horrible... It's this terrible leather one, and the locking strap was made too small, so it didn't even fit around the handle. I cut it off because it only got in the way. Whereas my standard Ka-Bar has a nice glass-filled nylon sheath that locks the knife in place. I like the look of the Big Brother knife better, but I hate the sheath. Which do you guys think I should use? Here's a side-by-side of the two and their respective sheaths.
