25th May 2010: Fitting the Suit Well I've kind of figured out a way to put the suit on and make it all stable, but its like a step-by-step puzzle ^^:. Pieces have to be put on in a specific order and some parts will be fiddly ^^;.
Order of putting on:
COD belt, Thighs, loop suspenders through COD piece, attach suspender clips to rear of thighs. Shins (may use a strip of velcro to link the tighs and shins). Boots, then stick covers on. Shoulders, Chest-piece (need help lol), Gauntlets, handplates and then finally someone needs to put my helmet on for me XDD.
21st April 2010: Change of Plans Decided not to call this one Master Chief since I'm using a darker shade of Green plus I altered the visor to look different. So he shall be a regular Spartan soldier. Spartan - 7734!
15th April 2010: Update Letting you guys know I'm on the ball
28th March 2010: Sizing Tutorial Well I'm not sure if people knew, but there was this guy on Youtube called Abrant3 who did fantastic video tutorials of Halo armour, unfortunately he's removed his videos for some strange reason. However, I have managed to track him down on 405th.com and found a nifty sizing tutorial of his. This is built for average body sizes and requires you entire height in cm's:

Awww, dude, i saw you at Expo. I was the Psycho from Borderlands who got a picture with you and some ODSTs (i was cutting off an ODST's head). Your costume was super freaking awesome. Can i just ask: Where did you get your underarmour from? I'm looking for some for my Recon armor but i'm not too sure where to look (and yours looks perfect so i may have to use that).
Cheers and brilliant job on the armour
Solaria - 16th November 2011 Now this is commitment *3* One of the best ive seen
zane-destiny - 20th November 2011
Thanks very much, it means a lot. Its a shame within the first hour of Expo I was glomped by some Naruto cosplayer and many parts ended up cracked. In the end I just left the whole suit at the hotel ^^:.
Will redo better than ever sometime :D
