I think... elite?!?! Haha but seriously, again, this is amazing, and I think deserving of elite status.

To be perfectly honest, I don't believe my suit is elite worthy.
There are SO many better ones out there.
None the less I am humbled with your comment of it being so :)

Had a blast at Oz Comic-con Sydney this weekend!

Got to group up with Danielle_J!NX on the Saturday and strut around.
Met lots of awesome people [familiar and new] and had ALOT of pictures taken.
One of my favourite moments was when a little kid came up and hugged Danielle_J!NX and I

Looking forward to Eb Expo and Armageddon and grouping up again.

I won't be coming to either event as Commander Snow but as Commander Fox.

I am planning something very special for my awesome friends at Button Fox Crafts to support them with their very cute Button Fox Plushie Kickstarter.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/buttonfoxcrafts/button-fox-plushie

I first met them at Sydney Supanova 2014. Very friendly, great to get along with, and sell some AMAZING mechanise goodies. Defiantly worth helping them with their kickstarter!

Please Please Please help support them with this if you can, even if it is just $1. Every bit counts!

I won't be able to show all too much of the upgrades until Eb Games Expo, other than a few teasers...

The suspense! The mystery! The beautiful armour! :p
Great job, man. You've inspired me greatly with that undersuit!

You will have to wait a little longer :)
I hope it will be worth the wait.

Well today marks 1 year since I began this crazy quest to build a halo 4 suit.
Looking back to how I started just shows me how much I have learned from this build.
It wouldn't have been possible to make it this far without this amazing community :)
So a BIG thankyou to you all!

This is Commander Snow signing off as Snow for the last time:

I SALUTE YOU ALL!

awesome, amazing, really your armor and weapon are great :)
 
Re: Custom Halo 4 Armour Build+Lightrifle+Magnum(ArmourUpgrade 2 support ButtonFoxCra

That armor is beautiful, the white and green color scheme is one of the best I've seen. Did you have any problems painting the white?

Thankyou, I am very happy with how it turned out too :)

Thanks :)
The only issue I had with having your armour white is if your someone how doesn't like battle damage that much [many cause I can't make it look good yet] you will repaint it ALOT.
Basically before every convention I have been too I have repainted it (so far been to 5)

BUT

I no longer have the white and green colour scheme...
Here is a teaser of the finished knee pads [minus the gloss spray]:

Small teaser:

Outer-plated forearm [minus touch-up / gloss spray] showing all armour paint colours used in this repaint.
Once you see all the pieces together it will make more sense.

Commander Snow look unreal... in a good way of course.

Super duper custom!!!!

To be honest I wasn't too sure about the colour change until I added the fox features.
Now I love this version so much more than the original colour scheme.
One extra bonus with the upgrade was that my least favourite piece is now one of my most favourite [Butt plate]

Operation Snow Fox was a success!
Had a blast of a time at Eb Games Expo.
Met lots of great people, saw stacks of wicked cosplays, played some awesome upcoming games, and basically shaked my 'tail' feather all 3 days while going dance crazy. Entered the just cos' cosplay comp on Fri and came 2nd. Helped to promote Button Fox Crafts with their fox plushie kickstarter [of which they achieved !!!]. Exited the expo in style at Sundays Cosplay parade [once I got to the car I was basically soaked from the heat :p]. I am so stuffed and am already missing the expo. Can't wait until next year.

Re: Custom Halo 4 Armour Build+Lightrifle+Magnum(ArmourUpgrade 2 support ButtonFoxCra

That's one of the craziest mashups I've ever seen... and it works so well! The visor leads right into those whiskery bits almost like it was meant to be! Awesome job!

Thanks :)
Had the idea in my head for 2 weeks, and basically did it at 5am in the morning before Eb Games Expo.

So I went to Armageddon last weekend...
