I was about to post some of my Halo Props that I made, but then I felt like making a topic dedicated to anyone who wants to post their own props that they use/will use/meant for cosplaying. <8D
Well, here's mine, finished a mere hour ago.
Taken off my dA:
"Showing off my Halo-fanboyism, I finally managed to finish two of my props. The MA5C and the ODST Helmet
Materials used are: Paper, Cardboard, plexiglas, LOTS of glue.
Other stuff?: A small LED-light, metal spring & a microphone headset.
With the help of 405th forums pepakura designs, I made the MA5C Assault Rifle from Halo 3. (The model was an MA5B tho, due to the larger handgrip.
At first I failed at making the model, pretty discouraging, but I made another one and this time, filled it with cardboard, tedious, and I'm new to this. <8[ After that I simply painted it and left it in a corner for god knows how long. The ODST helmet hand a similiar fate too, I had no designs for it this time, so I did it from scratch XD.
After half a year, I finally got off my lazy $£&# and decided to plate them in plexiglas, not the brightest idea, given the dificult angles and shapes, but I finally pulled it off. But enough talk. Now commentary~~~
1. The helmet and the gun, what else to say? XD
2. The helmet, close up. not exactly the same as it is in the game, but I was on my own with this.
3. The MA5C. The designs were actually of the MA5B Model, which had a larger handgrip.
4. Front-view and the small Mag-lite that I happened to fish out of my box and slapped it onto the gun.
5. The small led-light that I put inside the rifle's cowling, I'm an idiot with electronics so I dont have the skills to make the digital ammo counter. <8B
6. A working charging handle. (Does nothing tho)
7. Lastly, the magazine itself, what else to say? o_O
--- Thanks for reading. <8]
Thanks to:
405th forums for the AR-designs.
My friends and fellow fanboys & fangirls that urged me on.
