So I was sitting around and realized that I never posted my ODST on the forums!

This build was performed by the amazing Sean Bradley (minus the helmet that was head shot props) a few years back.

As stated in the title it was inspired by the WWII 506th PIR paratrooper and combines the usual ODST gear with some actual WWII gear. The under suit is a reinforced M1942 paratrooper jump suit combined with the WWII Corcoran jump boots. In place of the ODST backpack (have one but it has never gotten the needed strapping) is an M1936 Musette bag that was commonly carried by paratroopers. The armor is all held up by and attached to an M1936 pistol belt and M1936 suspenders. In addition to all of this the M1942 uniform is mock CC2d which was a gas impregnate designed to protect troops from chemical gas attacks around the time of D-Day.

Threw a few photos of me in my paratrooper kit to show the inspiration and of course of the ODST to show the outcome!

Thanks again to Sean for the amazing build!
