Its been quite a while since I've been active on the forums, im pretty sure my inbox is full and some people may have been trying to contact me. Sorry about that and ill get on top of it soon, but im still quite busy for a few more weeks with final exams and moving out.
BUT the main thing that has been keeping me busy is over, getting ready for the Armageddon expo. This is the big con where i debuted my first cosplay and first set of Halo armour last year. I came back with an even better suit.
It's not completely done, I'm missing a few decals and i want to dirty it up a little more, like in LANDFALL. as well as re-do the undersuit with a much more accurate material. I will attend to these bits on it when i have some spare time later this year.
Before i show pics, this is ALL made by myself, using either pep files, styrene, foam and sewing, as well as general scratch building and finding appropriate parts around the house. The only piece i didn't make was the visor (one of rubes) and the knife (a kershaw responder, which i purchased on ebay).
I won best technical in the cosplay comp, not what i was going for (was hoping for best overall) but i cant really complain.
anyway, enough talk, here are the few pics I've uploaded so far, we are going to do a proper photoshoot with it some time soon for some more badass photos.
