Help! I am making my first suit of Master Chief armor.

[shortydude3932]

First off, I have been wanting to make one for sometime now. I decided to make one from this website http://www.indymogul.com/backyardfx/episode/BFX_20081103 because this is the only one I have seen that is cost effective (decently) and possibly easier. Because I dont want to get halfway through and finish with nothing, I want to start with the helmet. If I am using a Motorcycle helmet with a visor, do I fiberglass the inside still, or something. I do not know how to go about the helmet from the instruction. If any one has any input to my question, I will be sincerely grateful.

Even though I'm kinda new to the armor thing, I have a pretty good idea on how to make armor. I wouldn't even use a motorcycle helmet, it's just too bulky. Just pep one, and use the visor for that helmet. Oh, and the visor should be gold reflective.

Read the stickies, or use the search bar. Those questions have been answered a million times. You could probably read 2 threads here, and 1 out of those 2 will have it answered, with pictures.

Welcome to the forums, shortydude3932.

Toacrabman is right. If you have questions you should seek out the answers to them by reading help (sticky) threads, tutorial threads, or build threads. A good place to begin is Roadkiller's reading list (http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/30542-NOOB-reading-list). If you cannot answer questions yourself (you definitely can if you take the time to research on this site) please use an appropriate help thread to post to instead of creating new threads asking for help.

Good luck with your project!
