This is my attempt at making Chief's armor from Halo 5. I have made a lot of progress since I started this project, and I have learned a lot since as well. Lately I have been painting these guys up and displaying the true beauty of them by using high-quality paints and lots of sanding.
Anyway, let me fill you guys in on my reasoning for this thread:
Once upon a time in a faraway land, there was a guy whose name was mblackwell1002, and everyone loved him. Right? RIGHT??
Anyway, he built a suit made of EVA foam. He used Master Chief's armor from Halo 4 as a reference, and was displeased with his awful creation...
Franken-Chief was an abomination!
His displeasure caused him to take a new approach, and that attempt proved much more successful:
Yet, he still had the drive for a better costume, and so he acquired a Flashforge Creator Pro to print out his pieces modeled by the amazing CarterBuilder12. Then came sanding, and lots of it...hours upon hours upon hours of filling and sanding to produce a satisfying result.
He started a thread about three months ago, but due to commissions, his project was delayed, and his thread died. *Blehhh*
And so his thread was reborn!!!
And now there are pictures!!
(in case you did not notice, the bobloheaddesh model is for "reference")
He used magical high-quality paints, and his work was successful. He is very pleased and happy to resume progress on his build...
He hopes you all enjoy, and he will happily accept any criticisms or comments of any form!
And may there be gifs!!
Hooray!
