I don't know whether to be amazed or completely floored by the costume. The LED work is fantastic, I bet this would be the talk of any Halloween costume contest.

~When in doubt, improvise! Trust me, I do it 98% of my day.
@Thorn: As always... Thanks!
@gc_3000: Thanks.
Had a request to take a pic of how the ab plate is attached to the torso.
In order to keep maximum freedom of movement, I needed to be able to let the ab plate swing rather than solidly be fixed to the torso. All I did was resin in some webbing and that's it.

Somewhere in this vastly thread, I had mentioned that I would post what files I used and what scale factors I used, along with my body measurments. I think that it's time to do just that. Except I won't post ALL my body measurements, just the important ones.
My height: 5'9"
Waist circumference: 30"
Shoe size: 7 (usa)
Weight: 140 lbs
Build: Slender to medium
All of the files that I used were originally from the wiki. However a lot of them are no longer available. --BUT-- Heavygunner's thread has a nice "All in one pep pack" which contains the exact same files that I used. http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/...-Pepakura-Pack

Lonshot-x, once again, has found another way to make this thread epic. More epic than it was before. More epic than epic. More epic than epoch. This thread is Epicepochmasterchiefaliciousaweinspiringlyjawdropp inglymindnumbinglyholycrapawesomelymoreepicly epic. squared.
I, the great genius, have finally discovered how to load pictures on this silly forum!
Noble 6 W.I.P. build ---> http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/...-Spartan-build
Spartans aren't born their built, thru blood, sweat, and tears. And maybe a little Fiberglass.
Finally managed to have a few days off to
myself with no commitments to anything.
What is there to do? ---> WORK ON ARMOR
Added the magnets to the torso and
the shotgun for the mounting system.
I can run and jump with no issues.
I can remove the shotty by reaching over my shoulder
--or--
by reaching from below.
Very easy to remount via over the shoulder.
Until next time,
Cheers!

Every time I look at this thread, I'm blown away. By far one of the best Mark VI builds ever. Kudos!!
