Hey guys, just joined up because I'm intent on making me some Fallout 3 'Brotherhood of Steel OUTCAST ' Power Armor (T-51b armor + T-45d Helmet)

Specifically and ideally i'd be going the Pepakura route, and once done and assembled, I'd probably like to paint it like a matte black, then weather, age, and scuff it up a bit, then put simulated splashed-on paint to give it that rebel look.

For the weapon i'm thinking a Gauss Rifle, but a Minigun is quite sexy and intimidating with the armor, but for a first-time project, I doubt i'll have the ability to do either but will first attempt the helmet Here's hoping to me doing an A-Okay job

Hi, I'm Lewis. I should specify first and foremost I'm not a costumer as such but I enjoy making impressive costumes for the annual event of halloween! Last year I did Pyramid Head from Silent Hill, this year I want to take that a step further and try Marcus Fenix from Gears of War.

I came across this place whilst searching for tips on making armour and some of the work done by folks on here has taken my breath away! Looking forward to getting started on my armour and I hope you guys are happy to help if I come unstuck

Hello there fellow halo fans and gaming fans! i was referred to this group from a group of spartans at akon 2011 in dallas. They informed me i could find some one here who could help me make a gears of war armor. and im also needing help getting a costume like baby doll has at the end of sucker punch that doesn't show the belly. Sence i am new i dont know quite where to ask for help with this. my main task is the gears of war, sense i will be wearing it at the midnight launch for the final game.

I work full time at racetrac, and make enough to pay for the supplies for the armor to be made. When it comes to makeing armor i am not very good at it. however im sure with the 405th, (from what i have heard,) some one will be more then glad to help me or make a set for me.

Favorite Movie(s): Star wars, Evangelion,

Well, The name is Ross. I hail from Santa Clara, California. Never really was into making things with my hands until recentily after a service trip to elsalvador to construct a daycare in the village of los deliciaz.
In my spare time, I mod games such as Empire at war, play around with art, listen to music (Dubstep, industrial, metal, aggro, hard rock, instrumental, trance most notably), learn about new things, and dick around with my friends.

I think what i want to achieve with this forum is gaining a general knowledge of moulded costume creation so i can create my own stormtrooper armor. I've always wanted once, since i was a kid and I saw the 501st legion on the internet. When I finish the costume, I'm going to play around with using android software for control of voice modulation and lighting within the costume.
