[stealthshadow711]

where did you find it the easiest part of the armour to start on because as you can tell ikm new i i was hoping for some help thanks.

I did the helmet first but probably the easiest piece to start with would be the thigh or the crotch.

thanks for the tip... is there a place i can get all of the angles for the pieces?

Start with the thigh or bicep. Also I created scale tables for them (and the helmet) in the offical scaling thread to help reduce the amount of trial and error pieces. I haven't tested it yet but the forearm and calf should follow the same scales for the bicep and thigh -- unless you have forearms like Popeye.

I'd go with the hand cover, but that's TOO easy.

i downloaded the pepakura software now how do i get master chiefs model on the pepakura software??

Hand plates are a good starting point, it gives you an Idea of where and how your suit will progress!! Just think of it, cuase if you mess up then at least you can do that part over .. But any route is usually up to the designer!! Well theres our tip hope this helps alittle!!

If you mean tell just how far to bend each piece then no. I just make the fold to where there is a crease then as you are putting it together everything will kind of fall into place.
