Halo 4 Master Chief DONE!

[Onephattsi2]

Don't know how I missed this! Awesome work Man. Looks great!

The proportions are great.. and the use of the game bag for the detail on the under pieces was genius!

 

[Mighty OZ]

Nice work. The detail is really nice but a couple of questions:

When you finished the foam prior to painting, did you use PlastiDip spray or a latex caulk compound? How did that affect the paint job? I ask because a project I did came out imperfect, especially the finish using PlastiDip spray.

Was the helmet a finished job or a kit? If it was a kit, did it come with the visor?

Again, beautiful job. For doing this by hand with no pep guide, it is amazing.

Pure awesome right here

You did a fantastic job man! Way to go

Sorry I'm a little late to the party, but never too late to say this looks fantastic. I like your presentation and the photos are excellent. Nice work overall.

I would just like to say that this is just simply amazing you have some great skills in the art of costume building. I don't know if someone already asked but did you also build the helmet and if so what did you build it out of?

 

[Long Thor]

Wow impressive...

How much will the materials cost and where can I get them? I plan on taking on a similar build and have already contacted Stony Props in order to obtain the helmet and a separate rifle.

Also, how long did this take you? I have 3 months.
