Well the Bionic Arm is completed but I wasn't very happy with the outcome. It's simplified but inaccurate. I guess it's passable as a Bionic Arm. I mean, it certainly does look like a Bionic Arm.
Anyways, I will be wearing a black undersuit and I will add details such as wires and such to the Bionic Arm. As of now, it looks like:
NOTE: The Bionic Forearm has been tweaked with details. This is not an updated picture.
And the Bionic Bicep:
NOTE: It looks quite different from the actual Bionic Bicep for reasons: 1. I had to make it fit my bicep- 2. The templates were too small and I had no time to resize it.
I will add details such as the shoulder dome and some wires.
Here is a picture of the complete arm set:
You all have your critiques, tell me about them :3
As for me, I'm pretty satisfied with what I've built
I chose the UA/Buckler because it was super simple but I ended up loving it I used Paper Fasteners. Thanks!

I used Paper Fasteners. Thanks!Got another update!
Started working on the boot. I've got the main boot done. I've still to build the Cover Panel and the Toe Cover. Picture below:
I will be using these pair of shoes for my build. I took advantage of the fact that I'm a Prefect of a Private School, and we gotta wear black shoes so I was like "USE THESE SHOES!". And I did
I'm thinking of using either buttons or Earth Magnets to attach the Boot Base to the shoe itself. What do you think?

Pepakura! I'm gonna go Pep/Resin/Rondo/Bondo/Detail on it. The helmet is one piece I would prefer to have hard because I'm not used to foam helmets.

Looking good man. I must say as some one that has tried out foam helmets this would be one of the hardest to do. Although not impossible, getting the two curved jaw sections to look right would be quite tricky.
Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing how it all turns out.

An honour to hear this from you, Tom! Your tutorials has helped me greatly! Thank you!
Anyways, there won't be much update for the next few days. I'm out of foam D: And I acquire monees to purchase more. It will probably be only a few days. And on the 20th, I celebrate Eid, a celebration for Muslims
I'll be gone for Eid for about a few days. Any Muslims on the forum? If so, Happy Early Eid from Malaysia :3 After I get back, I'm gonna work my ass off to get the Armor done by the 27th. Why? School reopens and I enter the 10th Grade so I gotta focus more. The Event I'm trying to get this finished by is on the 21st December 2012. Seems like I got some time during the year end holiday to finish it Stay tuned! And just in case, anyone wants more pictures of the armor parts? I'd be glad to provide them.
Alright! I am back with an update!
Real men don't need diapers. Badass men wear Space Diapers. Reach Armor Cod Piece done!
Pictures:
As I was wearing it to take photos, I though of something that'll be super convenient. I'm gonna stock the Abs to the Cod and the butt plate will have buckles so I can loosen the Cod to take it off or put it back on. What do you think of that?

Wicked job on the Space Diaper, bro!!

Quite a lot! We Spartans never go for Bathroom breaks so we require a lot of space!
Thanks, Pony-San! Thighs are next! Gonna get my Space Shorts done.
I forgot to add one more picture! The thigh lines up with the Cod nicely:
Anyways, here's an update but not for the Armor. It's weapon related.
In Halo Reach, every player gets a Combat Knife. I was watching Red vs Blue season 10 and I noticed one of the characters had a foldable hatchet and it made me realize how much I love hatchets! So I decided to give my Spartan a Hatchet instead. I'm figuring out where to put it. I'm thinking of somewhere reacheable and comfy, most likely on the right side of the cod. I get reach for the head, pull it out and get to the grip. The hatchet has a custom design. I will add details on the handle and some emblems as well.

Pretty awesome foam space diaper you've got goin' on
But seriously, the fit looks amazing on those. The sizing looks perfect and the detail looks awesome, can't wait to see them finished.
Haha, thanks! Honestly, I have to thank L3X for making the Foam Templates. I had no need to fiddle around with the scale, everything was perfectly size to me, coincidentally :3
In other news, Shins are coming along! After that, the only foam part left to build will be the challenge. The Torso. *Dum dum dum*
