Yeah, they are amazing references but that one little imperfection bugs me. Everything else on the armor looks correct as far as I can tell. I guess I will model the helmet for the most part with those references then go back and adjust everything based on pics from the cinematics. I think I might take a small break from the helmet and real quick model the shoulder pieces. They shouldn't take long at all and then I can come back and get frustrated some more with the helmet. lol.

Yeah I really need to get to building some armor. If I manage to get this whole suit modeled I think this will for sure be my first suit I will try to complete. I Never seem to really get farther than pepping up a model or glassing it. I did work on NZ-TK's scout helmet and my busa helmet and managed to get them bondoed but it came out terrible. Now I think I have learned my mistakes and I think this will be a great suit to do once I am done modeling it.

well with my first set i had some warping problems in the chest but went with it and you cant really tell with the Dcon pics from this year. I think the main reason with wanting to build this whole suit is because just like my recon it will be something diffrent than everyone else

Yeah that's kind of how I felt when I finished assembling parts of the mk vi suit. If I had one little thing wrong with it I would just get mad and quit because mine wasn't as good as some of the others I've seen. It really wasn't bad, it's just that I am really OCD where if something isn't perfect I give up or go completely mad. If I did the mk iv suit no one will have done it yet so I won't go AS crazy as I normally would. lol.

I should have pics up on the shoulder in 2 minutes. They are already almost finished. I have the basic shape and I just need to add more loops to it and make it more smooth.

Though I think we need to get a Hd version of the Mark V
Now we have all generations of the Mjolnir armor
Unless a Mark VII comes out :eek
Yeah the Mk IV armor is absolutely awesome. I can't wait to get all these models finished so I can start building them. As for the HD MK V, I would do it but there aren't really any references of what a detailed MK V would look like. The only detailed models we've seen of it are the halo 3 MK V helmet and the EOD chest piece that looks like the chest piece of the MK V suit. So to do it we would have to basically redesign the suit. Hopefully when Reach comes out we will see a new model of it and can make a HD version of it, though I think the MK V came out after Reach so I don't know if it will or not.
Anyways getting back on track I have an update on the shoulder. It is coming along quite nicely and has been really simple so far. Here is a pic of what I have so far and you will notice there are spots where more loops need to be added. My modeling process is different from most so I tend to deal with these issues usually last. Below that pic is a simple drawing I did in paint showing you about how detailed it will be once it is finished. So here they are now tell me what ya think!

Yeah I figured as I went I would find more that was wrong. I am really trying to only use the references I found for the profiles of the 3d models and then I'll use the references from the cinematics to tweak the profiles and add all the details. I think this will be the easiest method to model everything and it should get it 99% accurate.

they got the MRK V suits the day before to a couple of hours before the attack on reach happened
hey agbates i was wondering if you will do the cheak vent bits the same as what you did with your new CQB optional to put in or not?

I think I understand what you are saying, but I still want to clarify. I made a little drawing to explain what I think you want me to do.
I think you are wanting it so that the pink section will always be a part of the helmet but the red vent parts will be optional to put on. Tell me if I am understanding you correctly as I want to make this perfect for the community.
Oh and as for the MK V being on Reach that is really cool, because that means we should see an update of the armor in the Reach game so that we can make a new model for it. I only got half way through the Fall of Reach which is really sad because of how small it is, so I don't really remember the different permutations of armor they had. Which other ones did they have besides the mk v or was that the only one?
