Elite Honour Guard

[Manta]

I think I can attempt a full suit up soon!

This was the best I could do. I can put on most of the outfit by myself except the shoulders. They just kinda hang there. I also need to make adjustments to the head, can't see anything once the helmet goes on. Legs work great tho!

Duuuude this looks phenomenal! Do you have any cons you plan to take it to when you finish?

Ive started painting the armour but I don't have any good photos yet, so here's a painted elite head instead, with the cleanest teeth

I can finally see the finish line. Ran out of paint atm, but a few more coats and this thing will be ready for photos

I'm so shiny

The red I chose was not really accurate to the game, but I wanted it to look more like the CE/Halo 2 colours where the elites were very shiny. I also sacrificed some accuracy and detail for comfort/safety. If I trip and fall, the entire leg can shed off lol.

Honour guard pieces are still in the works. I should have pictures up by next week if everything goes well. I wanted to be greedy and make a 2-in-1 elite costume with both the honour guard and regular elite. Hope it looks good!
