Flexible Armour
I have finished my first piece of flexible armour, I have casted this piece using the forearm from the old set of armour as that had a good fit.
After it was casted I used Flexi foam 15 as the main material, the painting did have some back and forth but it’s the same process as what I do on my normal 3D prints which is good.
I am making this suit more dusty and dirt and I think it makes the pieces look a bit more realistic with all the dirt, it’s probably a bit too much but I love the look.

Help me learn from my first failure.
Hello!
Looking to see what I am able to learn from the community here about my first failure.
I am trying to 3D print my first set of armor on an Ender 3 V1. I have been watching tutorials and have been in Armorsmith getting my scaling set.
Long story short, I got a few thermal runaway errors and the print became miss aligned. After trying to resolve the error and I had to cut my losses at 82% completion.
I am using MoeSizzlac Halo Infinite 3D files and wanted to get some help on that I have learned so far.
- Is there too much thickness between the inner and outer walls? The print file in the picture was about a 2 day print with supports.
- Are there any recommended setting for printing or should the defaults mostly work? I have gathered a bunch of settings from tutorials but I assume there are too many differences to have an overall recommendation?
- Regarding scale in armorsmith, I plugged in my measurements but I feel that there is too much room in this piece. I know that I can fill in some and the under suit will take up some of the space. Thoughts?
Thanks everyone. I am finally trying to make the thing that I have wanted since I was young and the amount of things to consider can get overwhelming.

Old vs New Galactic Armory ODST visors
Just received Galactic Armory’s new ODST visor. It’s a significant improvement on their old one. I previously used their clear, vacuum formed visor for my original helmet (right) which I airbrushed silver, and built a second helmet in anticipation for the arrival of their new injection-molded visor.
The difference is even more drastic in person.

Has anyone printed the Galactic Armory Mark V armor without changing the scaling?
I bought the model and have been working on it and was just curious if anyone else here has printed it and if they changed the scaling at all, I'm 6'1 but some of the measurements still seem long (such as the thighs) and was wondering how the armor was working for them, how they handle mobility with thighs and the shoulders and whatnot, and if you have any tips or videos or something to help, it would be much appreciated.
So far I've only printed the helmet and am working on printing the torso. Only cosplay experience I have was printing the Berserker armor from berserk.

Question
Am I allowed to post my halo cosplay things even though I'm not an official member of the 405th?

This is my first post here and my first cosplay
I just somewhat finished my first ever cosplay in time for anime expo next month so I thought I'd post the progress, I've been a long time lurker but this is my first time interacting with the community, I'll take some better pictures at some point cause I know these are kinda rough but you get the idea

ODST Hardshell helmet I just finished
This is the new ‘Dutch’ variant up-armoured helmet from Galactic Armory with one of their new pro-grade visors. My cat had to get involved.

Helmet update!
Decided to go with some sort of tiger stripe ish style. The pro visor from galactic armory is so good! The visibility is amazing. Need to add some more detailing and weathering but the color scheme is starting to look sick.

Gotta make a kit to go with the pro visor I bought I guess
I guesssss i have to make a second one for the wifey toooooooo.
Thinking about doing a rakshasa/odst hybrid build. I’ve been looking at all the different designers for everything. Which ones do yall like and why? I’m leaning towards brink or skookum but I cant find pictures of skookum kits.

3D helmet print
Hey everyone,
I'm getting ready to print two helmets, a Mark V (Legacy) and a Mark VI, and I already have the 3D models ready to go.
My main issue is the visor. I could just print it, but I'd really like to make it see-through so I can actually wear the helmets for cosplay.
Has anyone done something similar or have any recommendations for materials or techniques?
Also, I'm not completely sure how to size the helmets correctly. Could anyone point me in the right direction for measuring my head and scaling the models so they'll fit properly?
And once the helmets are printed, is the raw print usually comfortable enough to wear, or do people normally add foam padding inside? If so, what kind of foam would you recommend?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Achilles anyone ?
A little commission I’m working on at the moment I’m used to doing odsts only so this is fun 🤩
