now that the attack on the site is over, i can finally post my progress for my MKVI build that i finished for dragoncon this year. all of the parts from this set are from Thorssoli, except for the thighs and cod piece. they are cast in flex foam, but im not sure who the original maker is. i believe theyre from ithica, but again, im not sure. i picked them up second hand. ive only got a few pics of the individual parts, currently, but im in the process of getting pictures of everything, and organizing it a little better than what youll see here for a bit. the original plan for color was the red you see, but with more white highlights, and a script letter "A" on the shoulder for the icon (roll tide!), but after seeing the forward unto dawn stuff, and with the release of halo 4 coming, i NEED it to be the chief's signature green, so the pieces are in the process of a repaint. no fans or lights yet, but theyre definitely on the way. i just ran out of time and funds before dcon.
enough talk. MOAR PICS.
first, the various pieces i have individual shots for. boots, hand plates, gauntlets and helmet.
and some dcon action pics! forgive the darker one. its poor quality, but i was asked to teabag someone. i had to include it in here!
sniper and zonbi let me play with their sword while zonbi was sporting her iron ho gear, and sniper was snapping photos of everything else. the glow of that thing attracted photographers like moths to a flame! you can even see me grinning really big thru the visor in one of the other pics that i have that isnt posted. lol. i loved every minute in the suit! in later posts ill go in to the strapping and under suit, which is all getting an overhaul as well after its dcon test run.
