The real goat for making the EOD helm. I rocked this helm back in the glory days of reach and it was amazing
Those were the days, a lot of friends and memories were made then
Yes! It’s my boy! The EOD was my helmet of choice in 3 and reach.
You should stay tuned for the paint job! It’s looking incredible
This is such a cool process to watch! I can’t wait to see more
Ayo, you got the exact same reach character as me, even the colors
Great minds think alike
Your helmets are some of the best that I have seen so far, amazing job!!!
Thank you so much!🙌🏼
Absolutely love this stuff I’m actually making my own spartan suit from halo reach right now I’d love to see you make a chest piece or lights on the helmet! Thanks for the content! Keep up the amazing work. You inspire me.
Thank you! that means a lot😁Hope I can be of help in anyway, and I am working on a suit too! Planning on lights, it’s just the learning process.
Felt like I was in New Mombasa with the music🫡

Really enjoying your videos! I’m newer to the process and it’s been really helpful to see how you do things. Keep up the great work!
Thanks you😁 and happy to be of assistance! Best of luck with your prints!
Been waiting for this, truly beautiful
Thank you for being patient with this! Happy to deliver
My favorite Reach helmet, you did a great job on this
Thank you!
super super cool!
Thank you!
Looks great brotha!!!
Thank you! And for your input on what helmet to do! Everyone loves the EOD helmet choice
Dropping a sub in the hopes that Ill see an ODST helmet in production soon.
I plan on it!😎
You should try doing the ODST reach helmet next
That’s the plan! Just narrowing down which iteration since each game varies slightly
Hey that's my favorite helmet.
It seems to be a fan favorite overall too!
@@isaacdprojects really? I thought people might hate the helmet. Never knew it was a fan favorite
I thought so too until the amount of feedback I got doing EOD vs others
Bro it looks so good! Emile’s helmet is also cool?
🤔Good point!
Great video! Hope you get monetized soon!
I appreciate it! And hopefully!🤣 it helps fund these
love EOD, currently working on a H3 EOD chest model rn
also why did some of your prints have tape on them in the printer?
Thank you! And for me I like putting the tape on the brim to better secure the print. So I don’t chance it becomes unstuck from the print bed or shifting too much since I have 3 printers running on one shelf with its vibrations
Is there a way to add a fully functional filter repirator?
I wouldn’t doubt it, with enough drive I’m sure it can be 3D modeled and integrated into the helmet
Got the 117th like woop woop 🎉
An achievement to be sure😎
Did you scale your helmet up or down? I started printing this at its regular size and i couldn’t get my ears comfortably over the "bucket bottom" piece (it was the first piece I printed) so i upscaled it by 10 percent and now im scared ill look like a bobble head lol and also do you add any foam to the inside?
I’ve always feared this too! For me I didn’t have to upscale it luckily, but my ears did catch too. I avoided this afterward by putting on a helmet mask thats like a painter spray sock. This kept my ears tucked and I was able to fit my head into the helmet. Especially with the EOD helmet I found it’s larger then most helmets so it’s one of the tougher ones to eliminate that risk of bobbleheadism lol
I'm trying to print an emile helmet from reach, and because of the odd shape of the visor, I'm not sure how to make it functional. any tips?
That's a tough one, I bought a vacuum former to try and see if I can do some helmets like that. But try looking at the blogs posted by Aguilar Workshops on making a resin cast of Emile's helmet. It's basically printing a negative and pouring resin. It's more cost-effective, but I'm sure some trial and error to get it perfect
How much do you sand before the primer? I'm making a mark v zeta helmet and very close to having all of the pieces printed.
I sand once each face of the print, 80 Grit is pretty coarse, so it gets the job done fast. It also lets the primer fill evenly once it's sprayed. Hope this helps! Best of luck on your Mark V Zeta!
Im trying to make my own so heres a question. How did you make the helmet fit? I mean how did you mesure your face to print the helmet?
So it’s kind of a long winded answer so hopefully this makes sense. I had a 3D scan of my head I took with my phone, I scaled the scan to match the size of my head in Meshmixer. Once I did that I know import the helmet files over and see if it’ll fit my head. Sometimes I slice the helmet in half from top to bottom so I can see how much room I have for padding.
Hopefully this helps! If not I can try planning to make a short video summarizing the process
That's mental
How much filament rolls did you need?
I used about 1 1/2 spools of Zyltech PLA filament
You might’ve already answered this but what kind of 3D printer do you have?
Currently, I have a Bambu Carbon X1, but I printed this helmet with a Cr-10 V3
