1st Build First Halo Spartan III build (picture thread)

[Animix]

hello, this is my first halo build and I would like to share my progress with everyone.
so its a spartan III with:
Mark VI helmet
odst shoulder
grenadier knee armor
colors: Main: Steel
Secondary: Violet

no other special attachments (such as chest and leg)

i bought the new disguise Mark VI helmet for $45 and I only have primed it and removed the chrome paint on the inside of the visor. a one way tint should be coming in tomorrow for the visor.

here are pics so far

(UPDATE)

Sorry for no recent updates on the project but I just recently finished the helmet and here it is...

 

[Animix]

what i did, well silver coat then base color for spray paint. then used some craft paint for the white. before the colors, I had cut out where the lights had been and installed these finger lights (very cheap). i also installed a one-way tint on the inside of the visor.
