Hello all. I don't know where to start on this thread or my upcoming Spartan armor. I've been a Halo fan since I got it for the original Xbox that first Christmas. I've stayed with the franchise over the years and it's only become a bigger part of my life.
The past couple of years, I've gotten into my creative and artistic side through costuming. I've had a good time doing Magneto ( http://www.therpf.com/f78/my-first-attempt-anything-magneto-214141/ ) and Spider-Man ( http://www.therpf.com/f78/symbiote-spider-man-firstpick-finished-need-feedback-217103/index2.html )and with The Master Chief Collection's release, my nostalgia fired up and I'm ready to try something bigger.

I know I want to go with the Halo 3 Master Chief armor and I know I want to use foam. From there, I'm lost. I don't have a computer and outside of my tablet and phone, my internet and technology capabilities are low.

Is there an easy template or blue print that would be tablet-friendly that I can start with? I don't doubt my artistic ability, but getting technical will be my challenge.

Any help or tips are appreciated.

*edit* -- I know I know... Search button.
I'm starting my research tonight and will be searching this forum for hours gathering info. Just figured I'd introduce myself before I get started.
