Hello all! I've been around for a while, but not present here on the 405th. Time to change that! I've had a completed MK VI Tucker from Red vs Blue for a couple years now, and decided it's time for a new project. Upon multiple viewings of the Forward Unto Dawn movie, I couldn't get over how much I loved the design of MC's armor!! 
(I know it's the same as The Package from Legends) So after deciding I wanted to try my hand at creating this armor for myself, I began the search for pep files. As anyone knows who has looked into this, or attempted it themselves, there's unfortunately only one set of FUD files, and they are EXTREMELY low definition. This realization was a bit daunting, and very discouraging... But after a lot of time, research, photo comparison to the pep files, and letting go of self-doubt, I decided I don't need to rely on heavily defined pep files to create
So, I will be attempting to customize all of the pieces of this armor with my own improvised techniques, materials, and methods. Hope some of you enjoy this thread, and I will try my best to point out all the little changes I've made to make the pieces look as much like the armor in the movie as I am able to with my limited abilities and skill.
Here are a few pics of the pepped out biceps. There are details I will be adding to all sides of this except the very inside. But here's what they look like in their natural form, straight from the pep file:i

Goofy thing about this file: the front of the bicep is a floating piece....??? So weird. You can see the completed front in the first picture. Needless to say, it was a bit of a pain to try and attach the sides/back to the front and have it look as it should without any weird contortions. I will be cutting the back apart to make it wider, adding a couple details on the side, and adding foam detail layers to the front and back. Will share more pics soon!! Enjoy!
