A) those are massive why would he try and 3D print the whole thing each time!?
B ) those are ridiculous prices, probably close to $1/hr worth of printing and then not counting ANY time spent cleaning/gluing/attaching those parts. I'd charge probably close to $400-500 for, say, a Halo SMG done on the makerbot.
C) Those are cool, and massive props. I've myself oft wanted to do stuff like that but I always have other crap in the way that either prevents me from spending time on cool printer projects, or are higher priority cool printer projects, or, as now, the printer is down because I messed it up trying to fix it. So I hope this person does at least have fun doing it and is able to do so for a while because they do look good.
D) I have wanted to do a similar thing but I'd defnitely either use 3D printing to make parts that I then use as a master to CAST, or I'd machine everything from the proper materials and make a full-real weight prop that has all the articulation.
E) If I came through on D, I would make it shoot paintballs.
K) We skip F because sometimes it looks like E, and J because it's just a drunk I.
It was supposed to be viewable by 7pm PST but I can't even see the moon yet unfortunately.
The moon is starting to come out of the Earth's shadow now. I think Jupiter is in the sky too. I thought it was a plane at first, but 5 minutes later it was still there. It's super bright.

There's precedent for them to be huge though because they're massive comparatively to a normal human in the game.

You know, it would be pretty cool to modify the STL files to add the mechanics from the liberator or one of the other 3D printed gun designs. Obviously it would probably only be single shot but even so. That or try printing a 10/22 stock that looks like one.

I know enough about gun design to were I could probably build a functional Halo AR chambered in a real round. Id probably do 5.56
But it would probably be illegal in my state so I'll have to be happy with paintall.
Also Jack; I totaly get that the full scale halo guns are big. Just that due to the size it stops being practical to 3D print every time, unless maybe holmes has a massive low fidelity 3D printer, which at that size is basically a CNC router table with an extruder.
If I were to CNC fab the guns each time, routing LDF and foam and then gluing it all together is probably the easiest.
It's funny to see a Facebook friend work on something, post photos and video updates, then later it goes viral and I see it out of context. Like that juggling video.

Now. I'll upload pictures when it's all done. AMAZING!

I want to go there.
