You keep raising the bar.
Great work.
Great work.
Smal update
So here comes a smal update:
I have recived the bag for the thigh so gonna start on that attachment soon.
The nerf-gun for the sniper will arrive in 2 days i guess so going to start on that later.
But then today i have made a knife to have on the shoulder, used a pepfile as templates and guide. The knife and seath is all made in foam since I belive its cheaper, and less problems for entering later con's. Well here's some pics...

You got a very good looking suit. 
Knife update
So, inbetween reading for exam and so on I have finnished the knife for the shoulder. As said its build all out of foam, with a smal piece of 2mm plastic sheet between the handle and the seath for added support. The plastic is hidden on the backside of the "blade", also didtn bother with detailing the backside of the seath and knife since its going to be attached to the shoulder at all times anyways. Well here's some pix!
Over: Finnished painted with 2layers of basecoat, 1layer of black and 1layer of "plastick dark grey" on the details.
Over: Added the "UNSC" text in white paint and "philips-screws" for detailing, also some battledmg.
Over: Backside where you can see the velcro used to attach it to the shoulder. Also you can se that i havent bothered with detailing and painting the backside.
Over: The shoulder with added blue and white stripes, didnt come out so well as i hoped, but i belive it will look better when i get on the whole costume. Also you can se the velcro glued to the shoulder.
And Last but not least, the knife attached to the shoulder using only the velcro...

that shoulder looks great with the knife! love the build!
Sniper Update!
So I have been able to get startet on the sniper, and I was thinking of making a seperate thread for it on the weapon part of the forum, but seems like im not allowed to do that somehow....?.. Ohwell, ill just put it in here instead then.
So i have been watching both Sithslayer79 and Spartan-005 which both made some pretty darn good snipers based on a nerf-gun.
First a referance picture:
Smacked the nerf-gun over the ref pic, turns out they are quite alike.
Then i found another pic from the side, which i then put in photoshop and mapped out a rough drawing of the sniper. Straight out of the game the sniper is supposed to be 190cm i think, but since im not 210cm tall and a superhuman, i scaled it down to about 135-140cm (cant remember atm).
Took the whole thing apart and made room for the new barrel. Well here is some pics.
Then to make the pullslider thingy i cutt off the top of the handle on a xato-knife.
Also i have a friend who is a CNC-operator, and he made these details on the barrel for me
Well thats all i have for now....

Sniper Update 2!
Have managed to put in some work to the sniper, it is now more or less finnished, tho without the scope. Everything is made with foam and im now coating the whole sniper in resin, hopefully the resin will make a hard surface which i then can paint. Its not a problem to paint it without the resin, but im hoping that the resin will make a hard enough surface so that the paint wont crack then touched later on. Atleast thats my idea of it. But here is some pics, enjoy!
Finnished front section, the gun in based on a nefgun and I have "saved" the splitting part, so therefore thi gun wil also be able to split in 2. More practical when transport and so on.

Tiny update: Im now done with finals, the sniper was finnished painted today but i still have to make the scope. Have finnished pepping the attachment for the helmet, so it will be resined tomorrow morning, hoping for sun so i can start to fill it with my resin/bondo mix, and start so bondo and sand it. My plan is to have 3 red LED lights in the attachment and 2 red lights in the helmet itself. Let me show by using some pics:
RED Ring - The Red rings shows where i intend to use RED LEDS, also going to fit an on/off button somewhere.
YELLOW Ring - Where i might put an extra RED or BLUE LED, i havent decided on this yes so some feedback on this would be awsome. Say what u think about it
Next Pic:
RED - These smal red lines suggest the positioning of the RED LED's.
YELLOW - where i intend to pull the wires on the inside of the helmet. For the attachment im planing on making it hollow, and make a whole at the bottom of it. Through this hole i will then fix all the leds and so on.
ORANGE - Since the next con is in only 2 weeks and it might get really hot wareing the suit, im planning on maybe attaching some pc-fans on the inside here. I have never wore my suit during the summer yet, so i really dont know how hot it will be....im guessing the thermostat may reach 20-25 celsius at the max outside.....any1 have any tips for that?
BLACK - simply represent where i plan to put the battery
Look out! there will be alot of updates over the comming week or so!

Wow, build looks fantastic and the gun looks like its coming along beautifully. I would like to put in a vote for neigh on the led's in the side vents. You already have 5 up top and it would almost seem excessive were to position 2 more in places that they aren't even designed to go. Also, 2 pc fans and 5 led's will probably drain batteries pretty fast. But hey, that's just my opinion, it's your build and it looks like your treating it well!

man that sniper looks really good, I love how that nerf gun can be used to make so many others, that's the same one I turned into my gun. can't wait to see some led's on the helm now.
some bad news, the first attempt at making a attachment for the helmet went to hell. Built it in pepakura, then resined it and so on, but it just got all wrong and twisted somehow....so ill 2 1 more attempt at making it in pepakura, if it fails ill make it in foam.....
Also need some help!
In the red rings, there seem to be a kind of bulb of some sort that sticks out. Like a cover over the LED, any1 have any ideas of what to use to make those bulbs? or where to get it?
