Im actually very curious to see how that turns out if I go with the Pink Camo...... If it doesnt win this poll then ill save it for another weapon, maybe.
It would be cool to have a Pink Camo Sniper Rifle because I plan on painting my Mark VI armor pink with white highlights..... (I havnt started my armor yet so its along ways away)

Well, from the look of things so far, the standard Grey/Black colour scheme still seems to be winning out over everything else. I don't know if the Pink Camo will come even close in that poll.
So then, I take it your Mk VI armour will look like the SPARTAN shown in your sig, except with the maroon stripes/accents being white? That'd look pretty kewl.
You'd certainly stand out in a crowd, that's for sure
lol
Even though you put up that poll, if the Pink Camo scheme is what you really want to finish your SR with, there's no reason you can't despite others' opinions on going with something else.
After all, part of this hobby is allowing ourselves a little creative liberty to make our own MJOLNIR armour something that's representative of ourselves.
It would be pretty boring if everybody painted thier HALO armour and weapons the same, lol.
So, if the Pink Camo is what you really would like to go with, regardless of the poll results I say go for it, girl...
EDIT: Have you figured out how you're going to do the Camo scheme? Is it going to be very similar to what the real-world military uses? And, are you going to make some sort of painting template for applying it? *raises quizzical eyebrow*

Im good with a paint brush, lol. Ill use one of my friends military jackets as a comparison tool and just freehand the piant job. If i go with black and grey then ill probably spray paint it and finish it up so its all nice and battle worn.
As for my Mark VI armor, yeah I think I'll be useing my H3 SPARTAN as my final coloring.... I havent made a final decision between white or crimson highlights, either way I'll be one sexy SPARTAN lol
Oh and Happy Birthday SPARTAN II <3

BOLD # 1: Kewl. Sounds like you've already got that part of it pretty well planned out.
BOLD # 2: Personally, I think you should go with the white stripes/accents. Are you going to do all the accents, including the shoulder plates? Or are you just going to have the helmet and thigh stripes?
And yeah, I don't doubt you will be, lol. Like I've said before in some other thread here, for guys like us here, there's almost nothing sexier than a woman in MJOLNIR armour, heh.
Oh, and thanks for the birthday wishes, BRI. Didn't think anyone noticed, lol.

I think Im goin to go with all the color accents, I just love how I look in the game so I want to be that accurate in my armor. The only thing I havent figuredout is what to use as a symbol on my right shoulder plate....
Im deffinately putting a 405th ref on my left shoulder plate though.
Damnit SPARTAN II!!!! You've got me so excited about finishing my SR and getting me in gear to start my armor!!! I think i'm gonna have to go to the hardware store during my lunch break to buy some resin so i can start today lol. Your evil.

Ah, okay. Myself, I don't like the differently-coloured shoulder plates so much (just looks "off" to me, for some reason), but to each thier own.
Though all I have done up so far is the helmet (and even that's not quite finished, lol), I too am already thinking ahead to what signage I want to put on my armour.
In reverse of what you're planning to do, I'm going to put the 405th emblem on my right shoulder and probably the "Legendary" difficulty logo (Hunter shield, two blades and Elite skull) on my left.
Should look pretty kewl when done...
MWAHAHAHAHA! Evil, am I? What can I say... I try, lol.
Hey, I wouldn't be much of a fellow SPARTAN if I didn't help get you excited about this...
So then, we can expect to see some progress on your armour later today? *snicker snicker*

That'd be awesome, and also damn impressive if you managed that all in one day/night! LMAO
I'll certainly be looking forward to seeing you post a new thread later regarding your armour build, heh.

I was just thinking....
Should I add a real Rifle Scope to my SR? I could encase one in the H2 model with some adustments. I think I ave an extra one or two lying around my room....I though It would be a cool idea......

Are you kidding? That wouldn't be kewl... that'd be freakin' AWESOME! I definately agree you should do that. Btw, I really like your idea of encasing it in the H2 scope frame, so that it maintains the same look. I would've suggested that if you hadn't thought of it yourself...
lol

but the h2 scope is so wide what if you put a pare of binoculars in the scope small but high power
SPARTAN II
Sr Member
You wouldn't get full use of them, as part of the binoculars would be obscured by the faux scope cover. So, that would sorta defeat the purpose of it. I think her way of doing it is the best way to go about it, imho...

Im not a smart person, especially when it comes to electronics so useing a regular scope would make my life alot easier than to build somethign useing an LCD screen lol.
