Thank you for the warm welcome guys! I've enjoyed our long running killing frenzy around the world and universe. I also have an update of my own. I've been working in the shadows on this for quite sometime and will be unveiling the finished product next weekend at PixelCon in Tuscaloosa, AL. but now for the long overdue update and pics of some scratch built works, from the We Are ODST short, that i've created. Get ready, there will be a test at the end. hehe.
First we have a set of shoulders, built from cardboard. And let me point out, to me, this is the quickest and easiest way to create armor. I look at the reference pictures and see how it fits on the model. Then reference it to myself. For instance where it starts and where it ends, how wide is it, and how would it fit on me. Measure that distance and you have your start.
Here they are coated in SmoothCast and my own composite blend of SmoothCast. Still in rough form but I should have everything finished in time.
Next is the center torso plates. Again in rough form and then getting closer to finished.
And now, the bucket. This was given to me by SavvyTank as a trade, In which Joe now is the owner of my MKVI Helm mold so that will be coming from Joe to you James and Brutus. In raw cast and somewhat throw together for the release of ODST.
Forearms. Weta version edited to be accurate to my build. Still needs work.
And finally the Chest plate. I tried scratch building but got fed up with it so this is pepped. This is the one made for Goosebot and Techbot. Mine is actually a little larger since I am 6 foot, 213 lbs.
Almost forgot! Just built these! Accurate thighs...made them while I was at work ( managment has its perks! When its slow that is). And the ODST shirt. This thing is comfy.
To everyone, I hope you enjoy these. And to the Mods, sorry for the shear size of this update. I had a lot to show.
