A bunch of stuff I made! *Warning, lots of IMG*

Hey, all! So, does everyone remember this video?

Evolution of Halo always captures my imagination due to the array of neat weapons that didn't end up in the final cut. Having both free time and modeling skill, I opened up Creo and started making some of them in Creo. Because I made them in about the same scale as the Reach figs, I then though "Wait... what if I print these on Shapeways?" So I did. And here are the results. I'll put a screenshot or two up before each one.

The weapons section starts at about 1:10.

Okay, first off is the the Covenant Sniper Rifle:

I'm pretty sure this evolved into the beam rifle we all know and love.

Next is the Drum Key:

Next is a really neat thing that I wish had stuck around, the Gravity Wrench:

This next one looks like it was possibly recycled into the Mauler, though I've heard it referred to as the Excavator:

I had some issues making this one, since I made the post for the ammo wheel too long and had to cut it off in order to get that thing on there.

I decided to also do the Gravity Rifle, which technically made it into Halo 1, though it isn't useable without some manual labor. Here it is:

While I was at it, I realized we've never gotten a toy version of the Sentinel Beam. So I did that to the best of my ability:

20150110_101155

I'm also frustrated by the lack of Destiny toys of any kind so I made a Scout Rifle for my Halo figs, complete with removable mag:

Also, Halo Christmas cookies!

Now, if you enjoyed seeing all of this, I have great news! You too can own these baubles for your Halo army. Just visit the links in my Shapeways shop! See below.

Covenant Sniper
Drum Key
Gravity Wrench Body
Gravity Wrench Tip
The Excavator will be available soon, I just have to correct my design errors, heh.
Gravity Rifle
Sentinel Beam
Destiny Cryptic Dragon SR
Destiny CD Mag

I have plans to do that sick Gatling gun from the video and possibly one or two of the others as well. Let me know what you think! As these are all works in progress, feedback is appreciated.
