BUILD FINISHED! 11/2/2016
So its all done beside some of the soldier pouches and just small details that can be completed later. Learned a lot of new things through out this build and honestly cant wait to start upgrades hahaha. Let me know what you think!
Halo 4/5 Armor!!!
*most recent update: 4-25-16*
Starting this year off, I want to dive right in and start making my armor for Halo 4/5. I always liked the Halo 4 armor style and being able to make and wear it is even better.
The armor is going to be a combination of Foam and Pep/Resin. The helmet being the only paper pep and resin piece.
I currently have all the files i need and will be starting soon.
Armor Goal:
Armor Pieces:
Helmet: Warmaster; Pep'ed and waiting for resin
Chest: Soldier; Built
Shoulders: Warmaster; Built
Cod: Recruit; File found
Thighs: Recruit; File found
Shins/ Knees: Recruit; File found
Boots: Recruit; Built
Under-suit (idea still in progress):
Im hoping that i will be able to use a all-in-1 compression suit as the base for the under-suit. I saw a post on Facebook showing that by ironing a hex/ chicken wire pattern on to vinyl fabric, the hex pattern shows up on the vinyl. So I would make a duct-tape mannequin, and draw the templates on that and get the under-suit from the cutting up the mannequin. Another member, gmflex, posted a thread about this hexagonal aero-mat that he plasti-dipped. So i want to try to make the under-suit as a option B.
The boots are going to be interceptor Toe Kentin boots from wal-mart unless i find a better looking boot for the costume.
So this is what i have so far. Open to ideas to make the build as best as it could be.
