Hello! I've been here awhile but never really made a suit yet. Technically I still haven't. Let me give some back story! Bear with me, I like to think I have a sense of humor.
NOTE: This was not intended as a serious build, so please don't be hatin'.
Last year during in high school our homecoming theme was Hollywood. One of the days was "Back to the Future" where we were supposed to dress up like someone from the past or the future. So hearing about this the week before, I decided "I'M GOING TO BE AN ODST!" Then I thought "wait, I don't have any armor yet." THEN I thought "I'M GOING TO BE AN ODST!" So this build was REALLY fast, Less than a week. And the kicker, it was just the cardstock. Yup. I went around all day wearing paper armor. It worked, and people loved it. Unfortunately the helmet didn't get finished in time, so I had to go bucketless. I had a roll of black duct tape in my satchel to make quick repairs if something tore when I sat down. Turns out the only thing that tore were the shoulders, on account of I didn't scale the armor correctly. Now I say tear, but the thigh plates got SHREDDED. But that's ok, because since I was on a time crunch I just made the basic Halo 1 marine thigh plates xD. Anyway! Without further ado, here are the pictures of my "First" ODST build!
Yay first cutting! (of this build)
making good time!
Center complete! This probably should have been how big the entire chest was.
Yup, it may be a little big xD
Holy Chief where did all that come from?!
Got this idea from the shiny red envelope in the Halo 4 Limited Edition.
Yeah, it's sideways, but the backplate's coming along nicely.
Look at that pep work :cool
sneak peak at the fitting Luckily my dad's BDUs from Vietnam fit me perfectly
Cool Helmet, Bruh.
Whoever says spray painting cardstock directly is a terrible idea is a liar. xD
Yay UNSC! Yay NWS! (NWS is my Spartan clan, Nationwide Spartans. I'm the head of the Spec Ops Division )
Helmet update.
I think this is every ODST's most hated part.
Yay WETA knees!
Woo Shoulder! Starting to look like a Helljumper!
The whole kit.
Feet first into Hell! But first, lemme take a selfie.
