First Build. Modern-day take on the Halo 3 Marine.

[Krios24]

Started my first foam armor build a little while ago and I'm very pleased with the results. It's nothing too special or elaborate, but I was aiming for function over looks. So here it is, my personal take on the Marine armor inspired by Halo 3 with a dash of ODST. Enjoy! The helmet is from the Stony Props etsy store, just giving credit where it's due. Although I painted and modified it. Can't wait to do more detailed builds in the future!

Thanks so much!! I did buy the Assault Rifle but painted and modified it. It's actually a functional airsoft rifle, and I use the armor whenever I go out the play. I don't have a link since I bought it off ebay.

Niiiice.

The quality on the helmet closeup is excellent. You've put a lot of thought into the straps and packs as well.

Excellent build!

did you ever end up retrofitting the helmet with straps?

What green did you use on the armor?
