HALO Reach UNSC Trooper

[td2253]

I haven't been here in a long while but I thought I'd share what I've done when I was away. Here is my HALO Reach UNSC Trooper made from EVA foam, pepakura helmet and a modded Nerf Recon into an MA-37 assault rifle with a light up ammo counter. I installed a blue LED light inside the helmet and the thigh armor set have blue glowire in them. I am also involved in a Halo fan film called Halo: The Fallen. I was asked to be one of the costume designers for this production which will start in November 2011. We have a teaser trailer that will be schedule to go public this Sunday, Oct. 9th. Please like us on Facebook HERE and check out the latest developments of our production. Thanks for stopping by!

Great job!

This all looks so very familiar to me. You weren't at SDCC by chance were you? I remember a trooper with a setup identical to this. I was impressed by the system used to attach the pistol.

Hey Panzer, yup that was me alright! That was my costume's debut and I had a blast! Thanks for the compliment on the pistol holder.

Are you the Imperial officer in this pic?

Great seeing this in person at sdcc

 

[ustryker221]

awesome job!! love the rifle

 

[td2253]

Thanks guys! Not sure what OTA XII / VI means...gotta look that one up, lol!

 

[sgtfury4017]

The NERF gun modded into an assalt rifle is awesome and with lights to boot! Great job on uniform as well. Brilliant!

 

[Mike J.]

OTA XII / VI - I was guessing it was your initials and your birthday. It could have been one of the Bungie guys'. That's the most reasonable answer, I think.

Otherwise, my speculations tend toward Bible verses.

Awesome job (by you), no matter what

Especially the lighting. That's a nice touch.

Excellent work the armor looks great, and equally awesome getting in touch with Panzer again. I love convention photo shoots like that.

That's one of the best Nerf mods I've seen. Turning the Nerf Recon into the Halo Reach Assault Rifle. Would it be possible for you to provide patterns for the parts you attached to the Nerf Recon? :confused

Great looking armor
