Nice Raspberry Pi tac-pad, dude. two questions, you running a custom program so you can actually have a customized UNSC themed interface? Or are you sticking to displaying images. And which Pi are you running, B+, 2 B+, or 3 B+?

Lol Sandbagger, of course you're the first one to comment on this. Hcromzo, sweet looking suit so far, I wish I had better metal working capabilities after seeing this :P

If you take a look at all of my posts previous to today, every single one of them was either showing something I made, giving useful advice and feedback on other people's builds, or answering important questions asked by newcomers or inexperienced cosplayers. Just because I don't comment "Nice"...

Hey, none of those posts were spam, each one was just a encouraging reply or comment I would not have vocalized in normal circumstances. I stand by each and every one of those posts. . . . Sort-of-ish

Alright, this post makes 50 total posts; Commence the secret initiation ceremony, I'm ready!

Geez, this build is insane, and I one that I bet all of us that play airsoft have been dreaming of for years :P What's your expected budget on this bad boy, it can't be cheap by any stretch of the imagination.

Yep, you can make whatever custom armor and permutation that you like. Heck, you could even mix-and-match armor pieces from different games if you wanted, the sky and your imagination are the only limits.

Is there anything that you don't know how to do? This build just combines so many different fields and aspects of cosplay into one, I think the only thing you're missing is a custon water-cooling undersuit and you would become the lord over all Iron Man builds :P

This looks so accurate, I would have thought you worked at Legacy with this build quality. Great build, and equally amazing paint job to boot!

That would be amazing to behold, dude, although I can already imagine the complaints from Convention security at the cosplay check-in booth :P

Helmet looks amazingly clean, I can't wait to see it when it's done!

A good paint job can turn an okay-build into an epic one, and this certainly falls into the latter. Really nice weathering on all of the pieces, well done! Side not: I need to get my hands on one of those blasters :P

A very familiar origins story to a lot of us, I'm sure. Welcome to the community, and good luck building!

Glad you tried, man. 99% percent of people don't even take the first step into cosplay, and you certainly stepped in. In the end, that's what counts.

I'm just happy to see another Reach build, they were the best armors in-game and for cosplay IMHO.
