My project so far.... (Updated)

[Starlite]

Hello everyone! I am new here if you can't tell. :$ops:

So, My boyfriend, our friend, and I decided to make halo armor pretty much out of no where and this is been by far the most useful site round.

To date, I have made a pep helmet and pep crotch out of plain computer paper to play with sizing. I have more recently bought card stock and finished the helm and the right calf. I just got some resin yesterday and began to play with that. Fun Stuff. I'll update as I go, so on to a few pictures...
BTW sorry of the pictures are a bit blurry, I had to use my phone cam.

Here is my half resined right calf. I shorten it a bit.

Here is my helmet. I doubt you can tell but pretty much none of the numbers match up thanks to some printing errors. So for the most part I had to eyeball the damn thing. >.<

I'm leaving the helm the origanal size to leave room for padding and gadgets.

So yeah, I think the calf pieces are the easiest so I'll probably fiberglass those first. I'll update soon.

I have to say, I love the pink Spartan. Love it. Is your armor gonna be pink in the end? That would be awesome. Nobody does pink...

 

[Starlite]

Pink really isn't a favorite color of mine. I think I am pretty set on a purple of some sort, though I haven't decided on what shade yet. Maybe pink accents though? My friend and I are planning on making some sample boards soon, so we'll see. =p

Yeah I will either sacrifice my old GBX motorcycle boots for my shin and foot armor to connect to, or i'll use one of the millions of pairs of combat boots I have lying around.

hey star... whered u get the pink mini MC??? i have a classick MC color and a red and a blue one and an elite but never seen any others... And i really want a steel and white one.

 

[Starlite]

Elric, Well, depending on how you are connecting your armor to your boots, you can just make a slip on go over them so they don't get messed up. That probably how I am going to do it.


a1200, yeah, my boyfriend's brother's girlfriend bought it years ago so I really have no idea. =p Have you tried eBay?

 

[a1200]

actually i rarely use ebay because the last time i did i received a suverely damadged MC replica...
