New Year, new suit for Lord Elmo

[SSGLordElmo]

Well well... it's been an minute since I last made a new suit. My first one ever was back in 2022 when I did my crossover with Halo and Destiny/Iron Banner. And as all you may know that I did Robert from Omega team back in 2024. I absolutely had an amazing time doing that with my two best friends, but now it's time for my next solo suit.

I am gonna be doing the Mark VII Mountain Dew Tigerstripe. Ever since it was revealed back in late 2023, I was amazed by it's colors and design look, that I had to try to recreate it. I saw a fellow 405th member do this on her Rak City suit back in 2024 at C2E2 and was so impressed, it really made me push forward to actually make this my next suit for 2026. So my project has begun this week!!!

I will be going with all the basic Mark VII armor from Halo Infinite. The helmet I'm going with is Cavallino.

For my left shoulder, I'll be going with the TAC/CRYS Flatblade. And there might be some other suprises I'm adding to this, but won't spoil it till I get closer to C2E2.

So far I have gotten my helmet all sanded down. Will try to sand out more of my armor this week. Will be posting updates on here soon. Until then, it's armor crafting time.

I’ve always been so impressed when I’ve seen this coating IRL, very much looking forward to your rendition!

Thank you. I'm sure I'll have a good idea on the painting.

That's what I want to see, how you're going to dew that pattern!
Good luck!
