Hello! The final form of this build is done after 7 hours. This was definitely an interesting experience and taught me a lot. So I remade the base and did some modification to the turret. I built it to or as close to scale as possible, hopefully the reference photo will be in the project this time
What I changed:
I remade the entire base to be taller, and so the legs could fit on a base plate. And they can! You just need one big enough. I modified the barrel of the gun so it could actually spin. I also remade how it connected to the main body, now it can look straight up and somewhat down. The gun is a little back heavy but actually equals out pretty nice where it can look straight.
Q&A: (what people have asked me on Reddit and some things I want to clear up about this build)
1. Yes the base in kind of thin. I had to do this because I didn’t have enough of the right pieces to make it how I wanted and it would’ve been really bulky to the point where it would look worse.
2. Why is the gun so tall? The gun and what connects it to the base is tall because if I had the gun any lower it wouldn’t be able to rotate up and down well. The ammo belts would grind on the inside.
What I’ve used:
For this build I used extra pieces from all of the Halo: Infinite sets. Some specifics include, 3 builders boxes, 10th anniversary scorpion tank, and the 10th anniversary warthog run. Also just extra pieces I have from other sets.
Well I can’t think of anything else to add. I hope you enjoyed the build, and have good day!
