Been about 11 years since the first build, going to rebuild it following new designs by Marcus Lehto.
started with most crucial parts to replace and the part least proud of.

Pretty much as smooth as the surface of Reach now. Got some paint, but may strengthen the inside a little bit more first

The chest has seen better days. wasn't satisfied with the warping on the original, so progressed on a new one

OGMark5gasm! Oh wow. You really are building the ultimate og Mark 5!
I loved your first chest piece and that paint but seeing you making this one one... wow. Definitely worth it. All those details make it pop out.
 
The attention to detail is outstanding. Its like going from original graphic CE to CE Anniversary... BUT IRL!
 
Update this week, ready for painting.
Sealed the foam work, smoothed things out more, and added some permanent light covers.

Oh wow. Now with the primer it all looks so perfect. The edges and curves. I'm so impressed and in love with that.
