Nice job man, looks great

Looks great.

interesting

Nice job one everything, but you should have added tint to the visor. I see you.....

 

[drack]

Nicely done my son! I must admit, I do like my Halo, but am not a vet like you guys when it comes to knowing all the suit styles but was wondering. I know most people tint thier visors and was wondering if you are going to buy a stick on tint for yours (or invest in a bike visor). You got a really nice build there but personally i feal the gold or similar tint would just put the icing on the cake.


Oops lol! I now see that Davik pointed that out too :-S

 

[Davik]

It's cool. I am a vet to papercrafting (3 years) A so-so vet to costume papercrafting (1 year, Boba fett style armor) and a n00b to Halo armor, (2 days)

Oh, and what happened to your ab pieces? I don't see them. And where's the Hazop helmet??

 

[The Red Baron]

The HAZOP helmet ended up being way too heavy, I still have it primed. And as for the ab piece, it was just too large to fit it under the chest plate.

 

[Davik]

ok. does kinda ruin it though, downsizing? While you're at it, making the knee pads smaller may be a good move. remember, you don't have to use pepa, you can go off of the game and just draw your own parts.

oh, and dude, that looks almost exactly like my Halo character!!!
