Thanks for the nice comments guys :mrgreen:
Helmet is now tweaked, padded, and has LEDs. I just fiberglassed the chestplate and will paint it tomorrow. More pics then.
smilie- I also think that the MK VI is teh awesome but I've had three different versions of it. I only decided to keep one and for this I wanted to go in a new direction that fewer people had done. Plus I do agree with Ares that the MK V pwns. It's like someone took a space suit and made it into battle armor. But then again, there's not much in Halo that I don't like. ;-)

My good camera broke so this is the best I could get without it. I'll take the points off the top of the chest plate once I get the backpack together.
Hope you all like it. :mrgreen:
Helmet and Chestplate
White lights on
Secondary RED lights on (for those stealthy night missions, or when fighting predators) :shifty ninja:

Dude, you should put a green light and use it to communicate like in the books. You know the whole acknowledgement light thing.

Ooohhhh, that would make a lot more sense.
MKV Suit *Updated pg. 3*
Just a little update on what I've been working on. I used a kid-sized catcher's vest as underarmor and it worked just about perfect. The second pic shows a better view of my sculpted gutplate. It might seem I'm a little slow for you pepa types but the MKV is a much bigger pain than the MK VI, it just doesn't unwrap very well. Oh well, it's still all worth it in the end. Hope you guys like it.

FINALLY! A Halo 1 suit. These are very hard to find. Hopefully you can make molds and make money
Thanks for the awesome feedback guys. :mrgreen:
I will say that I do plan on making a mold of the helm at least after I finish the suit just because there are a few things I can't fix with the original that I could with a resin or rondo cast. As to the rest, we'll just have to wait and see. ;-)
I actually have a few other parts that are assembled but not good enough yet for me to put in with the finished painted ones. I'll put up some more pics once I finish the rest of the upper body, which I can now do thanks to a little technique I figured out for the irritating forearm armor. hehehe
I'll give you the details once I've got pics to go with it.
