Thanks for the comments, All I have managed to do so far is rein the outside of the helmet and harden it with casting resin, I'll post pics as soon as I have noticable progress
 
Thanks guys, I am slowly getting work done on this helmet, it has a bunch of tsmall area to do body work on so it is time consuming, I need to get some pics so I'll try to post progress pic tomorrow
 
Looks quite interesting...although I'm dying to know, how did he get that armor upgrade? *crosses finger for some form of reveal soon!*

The latest Halo novel, Glasslands, set after Halo 3 has a brief throw away line that I think 343 Industries had slipped in there setting up a possible explanation for the new armor the Chief is wearing in the trailer.

At one point, after suiting up SPARTAN II Naomi-010 in her MJOLNIR armor a comment is made along the lines of “MJOLNIR armor has nanites in it that will repair and update the armor while a SPARTAN is in cyro-sleep.”

Looks like 343i might be setting us up to explain away the Chief’s new armor by saying it fixed and upgraded itself while he was in Cyro between Halo 3 and 4.(Even though we have never heard anything about any sort of nano-technology at all before in the Halo Universe :rolleyes )

Oh really? Thanks a bunch for sharing that, at least it makes a bit more sense, to me the new armor somewhat resembles dead space haha
 
Just a small update, Im working on 3 diffrent projects at the moment one being and ODST Build, so progress on this helmet has been a bit slow but I have managed to work on it here and there so far I hardened it with Smooth Cast 320 and resined the outside with fiberglass resin now im just getting everything smoothed out but with all the details on the helmet sanding in those areas is a pain so it really slows down progress but im about done with the smoothing process then comes the detail process, I still need to cut out the visor so I can work on the frame around the visor which you can see in the pics, still looks a little ruff, I should have the smoothing process done here in a few days
Thanks for checking this out

Very nice. There are some slight bumps, but, eh, who am I to judge? From the pics, be careful around the visor. Still, awesome build, definitely would not mind getting my hands on the pdo files.
 
I know I haven't updated in a while, but I have started doing all the detail work on the helmet, Im about halfway done, hope you guys like it, next update should be completed, I hope

I still need to finish details under the brim and make the indents in the mouth part of the helmet

Back of the helmet, im working with very limited refrence pics and also the pep model is not exact to existing pictures, so this is the best I can do on the back, I still have a few details to add

Top of the helmet, I still need to use some epoxy clay on the bumps to make them look like refrece photos I have, im refering to the 2 raised area towards the middle top of the helmet

The visor that is in the helmet is just stuck in place, I plan to use a gold visor once the helmet is completed, this is just a temporary one till the helmet gets molded
