This is my Halo 4 Hayabusa concept armor I finished a year ago, the suit is made from Eva foam and the helmet is a cast, I 3D printed the helmet for the shape and then sculpted all of the details onto it then made a mold of the helmet so I could wear a lighter casting. the original was heavy from all the bondo etc, the suit and helmet are as accurate as I could get it being that all I had where two reference pictures to base all the details off of and since there were no forearms on the reference pics I used the Halo 4 MKVI forearms to kind of give it the retro look from the Halo 3 version Hayabusa
And here is a pic with both of my Busa suits in one picture

My halo reach rocket launched i built a few months back. Added custom led lights just to give it that little something extra.
Hi everybody - this is my first post I think - been lurking around here for a few years. I guess I discovered that I really enjoyed being crafty one Halloween when my son wanted to be Master Chief and there was no child's costume to be found. Since that first Master Chief where my then 6 year old son went from house to house looking like a bobble head I've burned the midnight oil to send him off each year in something new. Last year he went in the (mostly) Wetwork Armor topped off with a scratch foam Pilot Helmet and skull vacu-form that i was lucky enough to purchase from Doc Daily. The foam armor was mostly scratch made with the enormous help of images from the wetwork build done by the Impact Props guys - super talented and they don't know it but thanks to their build logs I was able to get this armor done.
Apologies for the sideways pics - not sure why they uploaded that way!
Test fit - before weathering and likely a million other "to-do's"
Couple close-ups
Months of work for a couple hours of enjoyment. in the dark.

Everything besides the top of the helm is 3D printed! .
Est time to make and print was 500-600H
Its a mix of halo4 for the body file
and H2A for the head. I drafted all the helm parts from scratch.
Nylon/spandex blend undersuit with a lite hex on it by useing a landry bag and a can of spray paint
back spine is on a 3 inch wide elastic strap that velcros to the undersuits zipper. Thus If I move the spine follows!
boots are printed with shoes in them glued. ( used RTV) soles of boots are EVA .
