Master Chief Is A Soccer Fan! (finished Helmet)

[b0anerges]

Back on Aug 3 I uploaded a picture of the new Real Salt Lake stadium and said that my goal was to finish my Helmet and wear it to the first game in the stadium (Oct 9).

Well it took 4 years to get a stadium built and 4 months for me to build my helmet but everything came together for a near perfect night!

Here are a few pictures-

Check out my album here on the 405th for more pictures-

I want to thank everyone on the forums for their inspiration and help, especially flying_squirl for his MRK-VI HD model.

You guys are the best. I'll take some portrait pictures of the helmet and post them later when I have some more time. I can't wait for the next game this Sat.

Lol, I hate sports but LOVE the helmet!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys.

I'm very pleased with how the helmet turned out. The only thing that I'm not excited about it the visor. I had to come up with my own solution because I just could afford the dual visor technique. It's also pretty dark in there. Thankfully the LED's are bright.

Here's a link to a slideshow with more pictures from the game if anybody is interested-

I wish I could embed it here in the forum but it won't let me.
