Thanks for the nice comments guys :mrgreen:

Helmet is now tweaked, padded, and has LEDs. I just fiberglassed the chestplate and will paint it tomorrow. More pics then.

smilie- I also think that the MK VI is teh awesome but I've had three different versions of it. I only decided to keep one and for this I wanted to go in a new direction that fewer people had done. Plus I do agree with Ares that the MK V pwns. It's like someone took a space suit and made it into battle armor. But then again, there's not much in Halo that I don't like. ;-)

My good camera broke so this is the best I could get without it. I'll take the points off the top of the chest plate once I get the backpack together.

Hope you all like it. :mrgreen:

Helmet and Chestplate

White lights on

Secondary RED lights on (for those stealthy night missions, or when fighting predators) :shifty ninja:

HOT armor. Now I'm probally going to make MK V so I can dual my little brother. He's being a H2 edition Spartan.

Graa... everytime I see more pics of good armors, it just makes me wish I could friggin get started on mine.

Dude, you should put a green light and use it to communicate like in the books. You know the whole acknowledgement light thing.

 

[Chewdog316]

Its pretty cool man.

:lindsey:

 

[Sigma LS]

Thanks :mrgreen:



Where would the green light go exactly? I've never had a chance to read the books.

Also, does anybody know where I can get the ultra pale green body lights for the Chief? There are so many of them on the Mk V, I'm looking to get them cheap.

I think the acknowledgment lights actually go inside the helmet, on the HUD. That way you can communicate with a team member who isn't directly in your line of sight.

 

[Spartan 270]

Ooohhhh, that would make a lot more sense.

MKV Suit *Updated pg. 3*

Just a little update on what I've been working on. I used a kid-sized catcher's vest as underarmor and it worked just about perfect. The second pic shows a better view of my sculpted gutplate. It might seem I'm a little slow for you pepa types but the MKV is a much bigger pain than the MK VI, it just doesn't unwrap very well. Oh well, it's still all worth it in the end. Hope you guys like it.

[Adam]

[Ironcobra3000]

Awesome job dude, keep it up! :hyper: :hyper:

[Gunnz777]

Wow, that looks so awesome! If only I had the materials to do that.

 

[Spartan 270]

Looks great, nice job dude. :hyper:

 

[SPARTAN430]

FINALLY! A Halo 1 suit. These are very hard to find. Hopefully you can make molds and make money

 

[MC Chris]

Nice work

 

[Sigma LS]

Thanks for the awesome feedback guys. :mrgreen:

I will say that I do plan on making a mold of the helm at least after I finish the suit just because there are a few things I can't fix with the original that I could with a resin or rondo cast. As to the rest, we'll just have to wait and see. ;-)

I actually have a few other parts that are assembled but not good enough yet for me to put in with the finished painted ones. I'll put up some more pics once I finish the rest of the upper body, which I can now do thanks to a little technique I figured out for the irritating forearm armor. hehehe

I'll give you the details once I've got pics to go with it.
