Zachturner009's Halo Reach Commando Foam Build

[Danger Viking]

The main issue that you will encounter I would say would be sizing, its best to figure out that since its the biggest problem that made my build take longer was sizing. Ill start a build thread documenting my build process of my commando armor but to summarize the main issue if your around 5'11 in height size up the body armor except helmet and chest 10% since this is my height and made the armor fit me to size the shoulders and knees will need to be sized down greatly but since this isn't my thread that the best advice I can give you here until I start my own build thread.

I'm the same height as well. Im using armorsmith and just got it like a day ago so im still learning a lot about it. Just learned how to rotate last night. So really at the base ground.

ODST's are super nice, my first build was my ODST. Did you ever find a file for the chest rig for the Commando? Been looking around and havent found much other then the helmet, shoulders and chest accessories.

If your ODST is your profile pic, that looks amazing, your Mjolnir will be just fine

Yes it is. Thank you! All of it is 3d printed. The amount of sanding was....ungodly.

I hate sanding the most or everything in existence, that's why I am a foamsmith, decided to jump to my reach build, all thanks to you guys.

 

[Dire]

Alright ODST, frustrated me, so I'm going to finish this puppy

Sanding sucks, but 3d printing is so much fun and you can get some amazing stuff. But you still have to sand with foam too. Glad we can help. I cant wait to see how the build goes.

Aight got the abdomen semi-complete, but I forgot to scale it, rookie mistake, got too excited but I will show what I got so far. I'll finish it up for I guess a prototype, hmmmm yeah I guess.

 

[Danger Viking]

Hell yea brother, that looks amazing! What piece of armor is next?

 

[Dire]

Alright the "prototype" abdomen is done now, soooooo here it is, I think I'm going to love this, I already built a Halo Reach suit like 2 years ago, but my skills have gotten better since then, so this is going to be my masterpiece, so here it is.

Alright V2 will be coming up with my proper scale. Til then guys.

Nice. I should start mine as well since I already know itll be a on and off thing. You using the files of the armory right?

 

[Dire]

Yeaup, it's actually really easy

 

[Dire]

The amount of time this will take, I dont think I will be able to build my helmet by dragon con, so I am getting it commissioned from a very respectable individual. When it is completed I will post it on here with full honors to him and what not, "cough" need to comission TurboCharizard for a sexy shotty.

 

[Danger Viking]

I just have to get use to reading them. They have this new thing where im asuming is a hang off bit for folding to put the whole thing together out of paper. But I dont want that so I gotta get use to reading these things.

 

[Danger Viking]

I cant say Ive seen his work to be honest.

Who, TurboCharizard ?

 

[Danger Viking]

Who, TurboCharizard ?

Yea, him.

 

[Dire]

Yea, him.

Dude, he is one of the most skilled ones I have seen, he has a T3 suit, and knows his shiz, definitely look thru his build thread
