Good luck on you build mate, I'm building a full recruit suit but I'm having issues with the shoulders sticking off my arm way too far, if you haven't already I'm pretty sure all the files you need are on the 4shared data base, except the recruit shoulders, which I got from crimmson on his thread "file it under crimmson" I hope this helps in some way.

Awe sweet dude, thanks. Yea i just find that the recruit shoulders would work better in my favor as i am a big guy. I will be starting off with the helmet then moving to the torso after the helmet is finished.
 
No worries, I had the same issue with my shoulders as I do a bit of weight lifting so my arms exactly small, the only issue with crimmsons file is that the actual out shoulder pad sticks too far off the bicep/tricep circlet. That's the only real issue with it.
 
So this past few days i worked on the Mark 6 Helmet build. Here is what i have for pictures. Next i will be working on the Mark 5 Halo 4 Torso, but i have run into a snag with it. I am not sure how to scale the torso so it would fit me. I am 5' 9". Could someone help me out.

My second time assembling my Torso of my Halo 4 Mark 5 has come out to small again. The Height i used was 440 it came out real small in height and i need it to be bigger. What do you think i am doing wrong? I really like this torso and would love to do it but if it does not work out i am going to have to go with my alternitive torso from Halo Wars from which i did make before but never finished it. If someone could help me out with making this torso bigger it would be great. My math skills are poor. If someone could help me out it would be great.

I figured it out, I made it to 550 in height which is coming out perfect size for me. Any bigger and its going to be a house on me, lol. I will post a picture of soon when i have the back of the torso finished. It is coming out quite nicely. The front part of the torso will be next then i will be off to do the Mark 6 Forearms.
 
Here is my finished Torso of the Mark 5 Halo 4 style. I will be waiting until December 1st to continue with the Resin/Rondo casting. Here are some pics.

I have ran out of Cardstock, so until i get some more i have been working on the idea of using the Nerf Rayven CS-18 as a base platform for my Halo 4 BR build. So here is what i have come up with so far.

Cool! I've been planning a similar project (Ok, I've mostly been playing with the rayven+stand-in barrel from another rifle).
Will you be maintaining the working internals? I'm going to cut off and relocate or replace the battery compartment with a more compact piece. I love your mock-up and look forward to seeing your progress!
 
one way to get the barrel length is to use either a retaliator/recon barrel extension or a Longstrike extension.

Thanks, but this will not be usable once i cut into it and shorten the nerf gun. Plus there will be a PVC pipe as a barrel.
 
Good luck on the build it will probably take a while. Although don't Spartan recruits start off wearing the Mark V helmet?

I dont think i can change my title, i am making a custom build toward my in game character model.

Today is my birthday so, on my birthday i will begin by resinning all my finished model's that i have pepped out. I will do two coats and then i will use Rondo on the inside.
 
Hey here is another update this time with pictures. Yay! so here we go. I started to Resin all my Models that i have finished. Here i will show you the helmet, shoulder, & boot. Also a picture of me with safety first.
