I've found myself having a lot of free time inside with winter on its way. I didn't see myself actually making this many things pieces after starting in July. Soon found out that I really like constructing and building out Halo helmets, and now full suits. This time around I wanted to make a HD suit from Reach. My Mark V suit came out great but overall it only took a few days to pep out all the low res pieces. I've seen a lot of Mark VI suits on here and didn't want to make one of those. A lot of people like them and they're all over the forum, but I like the customization of the Reach suit. So far I plan on building out the most basic for of it and will add different attachments later. As of now I have a Mark V and VI helmet that I can wear with the suit. I plan on painting the Mark VI with the Reach color scheme because I really like how the brim is painted black. Right now I haven't settled on what colors to use but I was thinking maybe a maroon and grey/silver look. Everyone that saw me on halloween knew I was Master Chief or thought I was Bumblebee because of my orange/yellow color. That became annoying pretty quick, though it did offer more photo ops with women lol. Right now the MK VI is sized correctly, but I have to do some trimming to get my head in the Reach MK V. I like having the option of multiple helmets for this go around. I plan on taking my time with the different pieces mainly because the amount of pages and parts that go with each. That also is another reason I'm excited to start this new project.
