Well I've been pondering the idea of doing an ODST Cosplay since fall 2020 or so. I did some light reading at the time and then kinda shelved it. Since then I bought a 3d printer and the idea sort of made its way back to the realm of possibility.
I considered the different methods people used to make costumes and realized that 3D printing was exactly the way for me to do it. Nothing against foam, but if you aren't Michelangelo, which I'm not, then it doesn't have the level of detail/ accuracy I wanted. Once I started printing I found this sight, and lurked in the background taking in information. Now that I've successfully completed the helmet and want to finish the armor I figured I'd better make an account here.
The basic plan is that the suit is going to be accurate to the Rookie in terms of shape and armor pieces but with my own unique color scheme and such.
I'll put the details and steps taken for all the parts in separate replies on this thread.
