I'm a fellow Nevadan (Reno); but I think making it yourself would probably net you better results and a greater sense of satisfaction. If you're dead set on buying a suit or having one tailor made to you, there are options out there on Etsy and the likes.

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images The only way to know is to try! Just take the bull by the horns and go for it!

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images So what I did, was wrapped myself in paper towels. Duct tape around those. Then I used my bandage/trauma scissors from my IFAK medkit from my vest to cut the suit off. Well, I had the girls cut me out of it...

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images Tiny little folds are really really time consuming to fold, glue and figure out where they are. I dread when I have to dewarp this helmet later. Now on to more Halo 5!

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images Yes! I've read a ton of your posts and got the Obj files! Appreciate the work in getting those. I'm continuously going to reference these as I build. Looking forward to showing my ideas on this super...

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images Oh hey, thought this was funny as I didn't even think about it. Right before I was getting ready for bed just now, I saw two things I forgot were related sitting on top of my dresser At least I have the...

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images The girls and I dipped deep into our papercrafting skills from Kindergarten and whipped out the elmers glue, scotch tape and all the scissors in the house. Again, the helmet we are building is the Infiltrator...

Re: Soldier/Infiltrator from Halo 4/5 Build [Currently Assembling Helmet] [BIG images Decided a duct tape dummy bodyform was the way to go. Did you know for a big guy like me (5'11, 250lbs) it takes over 190 yards of duct tape to make a solid bodyform? This is a project you can't do by...
