Hey guys,
Around early November of 2011 I decided to start another Halo Reach build. My old suit is starting to wear down on me and I just want something to do again. I plan to finish by August of this year for FanExpo 2012. I will be adding lights to where all lights will be shown on the actual armour. Ammo Counter for the assault rifle and a couple decals for the warning, UNSC eagle and logo and emblem. I want to add an actual leather thigh attachment for things like wallet and phone and maybe extra batteries. Armour ability will also be included. My magnum will be attached to the right thigh with rails I intend to attach to both the magnum and thigh which will make it removable. Gold visor will be installed via chicago screw way which I saw on the forum a while ago. I might be adding a voice amplifier which will also work as a MP3 player which might be fun. I will be fiberglassing the armour atleast twice and then finish off with a thin coat of rondo to cover all the sharp fiberglass. I will be bondoing the outside to have a nice smooth finish. The colour will be a dark olive green through out. I have a padded undersuit ordered already. Here we go
This is what I'm going for with a little touches of my own.

Now, for progress pictures, I have a couple which I already started on.

Unfortunately I'll be showing up to fan expo in my old suit, but fingers crossed that I can make enough improvements to have it hold together on me. I also just started working on a gun, but no where near as far along as your are with yours. They look awesome. Looking forward to seeing this finished.
