Okay, Its not that I don't like the spartan armor, but as i've been working on it, its crossed my mind that most of the suits you see put together are mostly split between master chief, iron man, and clone troopers, with some people going other routes. (gundam, power rangers, etc) Anyways, I thought, with these tools available, like pepakura and 3-d modelling and such, how hard would it be to create an original suit of armor? I've got some ideas for one, because my cousin and one of our friends kinda started to get me into rp (mostly just to fill in when they needed an extra character) Anyways, a character I created for an rp was a guy who built a suit in his garage, nothing too terribly fancy, just basic shapes for the panels, and simple features like hydraulics for movement, no super-soldier program or multi-billion dollar budget or secret alloys that deflect bullets or shielding systems. I've got a vague idea in my head of what it looks like, but I'm no artist, and I've tried 3d programs like sketch-up, but no dice there either. I have been working on getting the general idea on paper (drawing, not pepakura) but having no artistic talent makes it a rather long process, but I'm really liking some parts. If nothing else, I may settle for making some parts almost halo-esque so I can just tag them onto my spartan armor. I guess what I'm really looking for is advice. Is it even worth going into? If so, whats the best route to take? I do like to make things with my hands. If I do end up creating the suit in my head, I'll share any presentable progress here. I really would like to be able to see the suit in front of me in 3d, full-scale, wearable form. Thanks for reading, and any help, advice, criticism, etc. is not only welcome, I look forward to it with great anticipation.
