- Hi everyone!
So this is the final part of my "Commando" build series from Halo Reach. I'm redoing some of the sanding by trying out glazing spot putty, wet sanding, and finally getting to the weathering! It's been a fun two months working on this, but I'm very satisfied with the final look. I thank all of you who have been keeping up with this! Please let me know what other helmets you'd like to see in the near future in the comments below!

Awesome video and helmet!! Great job!
Bro I’m in awe that you’ve seen my build, I’ve been watching your videos for years! Thank you so much!
Wow impact props saw this, you did rlly well man
It's beautiful ! Amazing work ❤
Thank you!😁
Absolutely gorgeous brother. I have been wanting to make my Reach EOD helmet for a long time, and this just ignited that flame again.
I’m happy to hear that! I’ve been wanting to do this for years too and just have finally pushed myself to do it
So excited to make one myself!
It’s honestly great to see a helmet come to life, hope to see yours too!
I’m starting my H3 Hayabusa helm and this video is insanely helpful!
I’m happy to hear! Once you finish feel free to share a photo of it! I’d love to start sharing builds in videos
@@isaacdprojects for sure!
Just started a very similar project, thanks for posting how you went about everything
No problem! I’m learning new things as I go so hopefully it can help you out in one way or another
Great Job , Would like to see A ODST .
Same here
Awesome helmet!
Thank you so much!
Nice. Im starting a MKVII Helmet in a month or so and this is a good motivator to get it to look as good at yours
I’m happy this helps! And best of luck on yours! It’s a process but the end result is worth it
Mini painter here. Highlighting the edges to achieve a similar result as sanding them in your case to make it really pop is a method we use for our tiny army men.
Also we use washes as well, but I might go for a more watered down mixture.
Thank you for the tip! I’ll have to try that on my next helmet I have coming out
CARTERRRRR!! love him 4life. This was so cool!!
Lol Thank you!
Dude this is awesome, I’ve been wanted to make a mister cheif helmet from halo reach. This gives me a place to start at. Thx
I’m happy to hear! You’ll have to let me know how that goes because I’d love to see how it turns out
@@isaacdprojects ofc
Looks great man!, maybe I should finish my ODST helmet hahaha
Haha, you have no idea how many unfinished helmets I have too lol
Great stuff man, That helmet might need some armor to go with it. I`d be interested in seeing that
I got the files for it too! I’ll be starting the prints soon, but there so much it may be a while until it’s completed
@@isaacdprojectsYeah, id say so. The helmet alone looked fairly time consuming.
It was most definitely, but that being so I’ve always wanted to complete a suit
@@isaacdprojects How long ahve you been printing, I`ve always wanted to do it and im just going to get one. It just looks too fun.
I’ve been printing for a couple of years now, and it is a fun process! Especially being a fan of Halo, to actually hold something from in-game brings a feeling of nostalgia
Great video and awesome work, where dod you find the files for the armour ?
Thank you! I found these on CG Trader, they are by NerdForgeDesigns
The final product looks so good! I'm curious if this might work for my project as I'm running into the same issue of using cans and cans of spray primer. My build is made of foam and I'm currently working on the legs and arm sections, and I was wondering if spot putty would adhere and work nicely on flexible surfaces. For my markvii helmet I've been using wood filler and that has been working great, but I'm worried applying it to high contact parts would just chip right away. What would you have to say about that?
I hear you, I’ve tried foam clay/putty for EVA foam in the past and it’s worked alright? I’d look into that more if I were you since it provides more flex but has the some of the same sanding characteristics of spot putty. Which is great for rigid things like 3D prints, but that Foam clay/putty you’ll probably have more success with. Hope this helps!
@@isaacdprojects I forgot this stuff existed, I remembered I had a tub of this stuff by yaya han sitting in the back of my closet! Thanks for that! Also, keep up the great work, I always love to see spartan cosplays being made.
Thank you so much! Happy to see other Spartan builds too! There is always a thing to learn or two
That looks great!!! one question.... Do you recommend the final wet sand or no?
Thank you! And I’m 50/50 with doing that. I’ve done that on my coat before the last and it gave me a great final finish (since the prior coat was so smooth). I’ve done that too with the final coat and it gives it a wow factor if you ever show your friends with how smooth you got it. Either way you’ll find success👍🏼
@@isaacdprojects Thanks my dude. I'll give it a a crack. Now having issues with my printer settings 😔
Ah, I feel your pain. Currently have a Prusa Mk3 that I can’t fix to save my life lol
I'm looking for cosplay tutorials channels, first time I get a new one!
I'll watch your career with hope
Thank you! If you have a questions feel free to ask, if I don’t know then we’ll learn it together
beautiful work mate
gonna get a 3d printer soon and thinking of making some ODST gear
What material is used for the visor? Do you reckon it'd be able to be used for the ODST Visor (with it's weird bits at the front) like in the ODST game?
Edit: Just found your visor video xd
Haha🤣 Sorry for the late reply, but yes the material is in the other video. For an ODST visor I’ve seen people have luck using a hair dryer to form it around a buck? But I myself just got a vacuum former to try and get them done since it has those creases
@@isaacdprojects Nice. Thanks for the reply
@@isaacdprojects also I did end up getting the printer, have so far printed a plasma pistol and a few other small figurines, gonna do a magnum soon then when I get some more money and better quality plastic (the sun resistant stuff etc) gonna aim for a helmet :)
does it fit on your head? Really cool I am inspired
Yes actually! I do have to put some padding, but it’s a nice fit👌🏼
Check out uncle Jessy or darkwing dad to to spray putty. It much easier and dries faster
I’ll have to check it out! That sounds very helpful
I have a question. How did you make the visor??
I made the visor using a 1 way gold mirrored film I bought on Amazon with a divider for binders. You can see my process on a video I did a few weeks back on my channel if that helps
@@isaacdprojects ok, thank yoy so much uwu
No worries, Happy to help! 😁
Nice vid! Love the music!! But it could have been a touch quieter.
Appreciate the feedback! I’ll drop it a level or two to make it easier on the ears
@@isaacdprojects it’s easy on the ears it just competes with you talking.
Oh I see, thank you for clarifying! I’ll lower the music for sure
@@isaacdprojects great project tho!! Love helmet and armor vids!! Lmk if you’re looking for suggestions!
Thank you! I’m always open to suggestions for as I’m wrapping up the EOD helmet this weekend
It’s been 2 months??
Oooooooooo
