halo spartan knife pep

[usmc6132]

Been working a halo spartan knife pep file recently. I put it all together a little while ago and set aside until the weather got warmer. Now that it has I started again over the weekend. Heres the progress pictures. I haven't started resining the sheath yet. The assembly came out wrong so i may redo it. comment if you like.

Looks great! How are you going to do the resin for the inside of the sheath (if you are)?

 

[usmc6132]

I think I will resin the sheath in two pieces. I'll do the body as one part and the very top with the slotadd another. Then I'll resin them both together.

thank you. i'm new to this sort of thing so im using this to see how things go and try to feel out the process. i think its going ok so far. one thing im not happy with is the handle shape. the handle has a lot of angles and when i assembled the pep it was difficult to get them right. overall though im happy with it. i need some paint ideas for the details. i might try dry brushing some of the edges or something small like that.

Painted my knife. Looks pretty good I think. Im not sure what else I can do to it. Any suggestions.

looks great.do you have a pic of it from the game?

 

[usmc6132]

I don't have any pictures from the game. I found the pep and just took my own route with it.
