This will be a journey, one of many victories and many more losses and possibly my greatest challenge of patience, but it will be worth it all in the end when I see all 3 of my kids in their customized Master Chief Mark VI armor. I am also making the older two (almost 9 and 6) partake in whatever capacity they can because I want them to understand the commitment and dedication it will take to finish them. I homeschool so we got a bit of extra time I can allot to it.
One thing that excited them was the colour scheme and when they finally realized the possibilities of colour variations and combinations they went ballistic. I was talking with my friend LongshotX when he suggested to save time on painting I could always buy foam the colour the kids want. Best advice ever, we went out today and let the kids pick out their colours…here they are
Longshot-X was a huge inspiration for them and me and since I created a Cortana Cosplay, as seen in my avatar pic, and got a really good response (getting casted Cortana in the mash up Galactic Battles and my littlest one sees a picture of any cortana and says "mommy cortana", makes me pretty happy ), I wanted to go the next step further and make my own armor. I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to try on Longshot-X and it was incredible (as seen in my profile pic), truly a work of art as to how functional it was made. But my personal build will be in a different thread. This thread is for the EVA foam Mini Master Chiefs I am making for the kidlets so everyone can follow along, share their experiences and laugh at my mistakes .
Here are their artistic visions thus far
