The Irish Cowboy's Mark V Build

[IRSHCWGRL]

Ok, well hello all, this is my Mark V Build from reach
Scattered peps, kinda what I feel like making


Edit: Here is my guy in Vanity, Its a model gen. program http://veegie.com/Vanity/ Don't worry, no virus
This is exact except the robo arm will be on the opposite side,

(some things are photoshopped in)
ok, well pictures speak louder than words.....

>>PICS<<

Helmet is almost done, need a visor:

Chest In Progress:
(L3X's Newest model) gravity...is taking over...

Knife:

Shin And Knee:

And heres a shoutout to the person that is cutting all of these things out! .....mr. craft robo:

Peppin' tip, use super glue, infact use:

No joke, drys instantly...works great!


all for now, moar updates soon!

 

[L3X BLU3R1V3R]

very very nice! too bad about gravity lol anyways, i have a question. How exactly do you get the craft robo to print out the pep pieces? is it a certain model or do you have to use a certain program? because this would save me sooooooooo much time cutting things out lol

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

Thanks! Ya the chest isnt warping, just falling lol, love it tho!

Alright, i got the Silhouette SD, basically, ive found that there are two ways to do it:
-The Ink Killer (harder, but you can see the fold/cut lines)
-The Ink saver (quick, easy, no ink, but no fold lines, you have to look at the program for that)

Pep Viewer for CRAFTROBO is required, it runs most of it, and has a tut in the help menu



Ink Killer:
Print out the page as you would normally, but fit in the registration marks of the program
Put on carrier sheet (sticky Sheet)
Insert into craft robo
Follow program instructions
Cut
Done, smile and build


Ink Saver:
place blank sheet of cardstock on carrier sheet
insert into craft robo
Cut, follow program instructions
Done, smile and build



Hope that sums it up, its pretty simple,
one page at a time, you must load it

Sorry for double post, but got my visor ordered, coming on wed!

btw, anyone notice the time of the first post? hehe not purposefully either....

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

UPDATE
Ok, fine ill have to triple post

I weathered, [destroyed] my attachments,

And here is my semi-secret but not secret anymore inspiration from skylow's reach nerf ar.
The main body is nerf, wooden parts, and the scope is going to be rondo-ed. I have an ammo counter on order too.
Coming along nicely I think, what do you think?

Replys are greatly appreciated!

I really like this build so far! youre doing a good job, and all of these nerf mods are making me want to do one as well.

I know what you mean about inspiration.....cough cough, might be doing a foam build..cough cough...winter=no resin/bondo so i might turn this into a foam build (saving all of my already pepped stuff obv!

 

[Swift]

I thought about doing this armour, but decided against it for now. Love the colour scheme though! Looks sweet so far

 

[rob1]

Man, your awesome and so is your armor/gun! They are coming along....awesomely! :cool

 

[IRSHCWGRL]

Thanks! Like i said, most of my armor will be switched over to a foam build, same concept though!
