[ Halo Suit ]

Yes. I'm going as Master Chief for Halloween. I'll post pics soon, but this is what I want it to look like:

<IMG SRC="http://mjolnirarmor.com/halo-gallery/adam/chief-dog%20walking2.jpg" WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="500" BORDER="0" ALT="Adam Grumbo's Halo Suit">

This suit was made by Adam Grumbo of Mjolnir Armor. He used a couple different suits, including the BlueRealm helmet, and other things.

Mine, most of it will be old sports armor stuff. I'm going to spray paint it. The body and other parts unique to Halo will be made using Pepakura, a program that takes 3d models and converts them to printable patterns to make the actual model.

I've got the whole Mark V .3ds files, all separated. The only thing I probably won't make is the helmet, my own 3d model is less complicated then the real 3d model, and it has many more mesh surfaces. Hmmmm…

I'll post pics soon. And if you think I'm one of those n00bs who will say, "My costume is great! I used a milk jug for the helmet and foil for the armor!", I'm not. I may be new to making complex costumes, but art is my best subject.

I can't start on it right now, but it gives me more time for ideas!

Why I didn't just buy a regular costume:

They don't sell them at any store, mainly because they don't exist.

Why I didn't buy a custom one:

If the helmet is $12,715, it's just not worth it. I'm not that obsessed.

I've had this for a long time but I haven't posted the link. I just got a free domain name. Here's the web address: www.eclipseforum.co.nr

Going along quite nicely. Its web page is <A HREF="http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=4260">here</A>.

I scrapped this a couple months ago, it is an image editing program. I am currently adding an actual image editor in it. The reason I scrapped it was because of an image selecting tool I had that wasn't working correctly.

All of the parts of Master Chief, along with the full body model:

Nice idea. Probably will be used many times though.

My suggestion: if it can be done with cardboard, paint, and duct tape, then do it with cardboard, paint, and duct tape.

Yeah, I know. Is it just me, or did I see ChIkEn posting? He posted "8" and then when I looked again, it wasn't there…

If you are older than 10 years old, then this is really really stupid.

@Twinsoul: I heard about a Japanese kid who dressed up as a ninja. The people he went to for candy shot him because he couldn't speak English and they were afraid. The guy who shot him didn't even get jail time.

@sn0wb0arder381: I'm three, so everything's good. Hey, have you met my friend Stewey?

@js: that sucks. At least I speak English and most likely there aren't any retarded Jewish faggots like that in my neighboorhood. I got relations in KKK ya know >={D. j/k. So yeah, I'm still gonna do it, because my friend knows martial arts and kicked some guys' asses in front of my face.

My friend and I want to get Halo costumes. He would be Chief and I would be the Arbiter. Too bad we're not millionaires though, or we would totally do it.

I'm going to be what I was last year, a pigment of your imagination.

You're a nerd. A HALO NERD.

Well, I don't prefer Halo. Talk to JakeX about it if it so pleases you. But that's like dressing up as Mario. Doing that ruins your reputation in some places, and raises it in others, in a sort of bad way.

I'm going to be same as last year…Myself.

If you're trick-or-treating, then…well…I'm sorry. I think sn0w's right. But do whatever to your heart's content.
