Introduce Yourself

[UberSolidat]

It's pretty funny actually... I was on Live recently with my usual group of gaming friends and they started talking about some Halo armor that they'd been working on. I had actually finished 'pepping' a helmet about 2 months prior, so it was humorous to think that we'd all been working on this stuff separately and not knowing what the others where up to. One of my buddies is fairly far along in his suit building, so his progress is turning up the heat for the rest of us to really get going.

Hey folks! I'm Marcus Brightwell, I'm out of the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago. I am that friend that has been cranking up the heat on poor ol' pup. I'd post a WIP but A) I have no idea where my camera has wound up and B) once I get cranking on something I don't bother to stop to document the process.

I have been just lurking for the better part of 2 months finding models I like and patiently awaiting the models I need to finish my reach set, I have the chest (x3 doh I hate sizing mistakes), collar, shins, knees, thighs, and a helm(doh too small will be x2 at least when I'm done) finished. It is great to see a group so active in producing quality starting points for such a fun project.

I can't wait to get this stuff finished, and enjoy seeing what others have done (successfully/unsuccessfully) to make their suits. I hope to update you all with my own WIP soon.

Greetings 405th, saw the intro vid, figured I'd introduce myself. I'm Tim; mechanic by trade, wheelman at heart and a blur in the rearview mirror. I've seen a lot of these armors online and wondered how to make them, and now that I'm here I really have the urge to make a Noble 6 set as I have it in-game. Once I get my armor finalized in Reach (and I get the time/money/good weather) I plan on starting construction on an actual suit, preferrably with quick-interchange parts. I've got an idea how to pull it off, but I'll be digging into the forums in the meantime and looking for the "peps" of the armor variants I want to use. I'm really looking forward to getting to know you guys and have fun with these suits, even if I only use it to go to Wal-mart on Black Friday or something.

Good day all.

Total NOOB when it comes to costuming and armor crafting (in anything other than chainmaile) and looking to delve deep into the Cos Play aspect of armor here in the New York City area. The first project I had in mind was an odd mix of a HALO and Jin-Roh armor set. If anyone is from the general NYC area, I would be happy to meet, workshop, learn your insights and co-build for the experience and fun of it.
