Wow. I got the first installment of Master Chief armor made by Adam (MjolnirArmor) and a helmet by Walter (Spase).

This armor is incredible!! I've seen (and own) a lot of armor in my day... darth, stormtroopers, robocop... I have a lot of fiberglass props.. resin props.. etc.. but MY GOD this armor is incredible. It's thick, it's durable.. it's amazing.

You can definitely go trooping for days.. actually it feels like you could go trooping in this armor for years if need be..

There are videos of Spase sitting on this helmet it's that strong. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEBxz4EjEl4

Here's a video of Adam making the armor which is very fun to watch... he might have posted it here before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEBjOFLcTtA

The attention to detail that both these guys put into their armor making is also astonishing. Sure, I've seen plenty of helmets with led's and little fans inside. But rarely do I see a helmet with clear plastic trim around the base of the helmet to protect your neck from chaffing.

It's the little things like that that make this armor fantastic. Both people are great to deal with. The paint job by Adam is quite amazing. I'm working on a display for the armor as we speak.. nothing too fancy.. just an armature to hold the armor up. I'll try and get a dedicated spotlight and a metal backdrop so it'll look like it's in a weapons locker.

MjolnirArmor also provided me all the necessary accessories, the motocross undersuit - boots - turtleneck - even black sweatpants... It's a complete package... and definitely highly recommended.

Well, I'll update this thread as I go.. when I get the rest of the armor I'll post more pics. (for those who are photo experts - yes..the pics are a smidge blue.. i took these this morning on my way to work.. no time to set up studio lights or anything.. but soon... heh heh)

Re: Master Chief by Spase and MjolnirArmor

Well Glad you Liked the Helmet...

The one farthest to the right in the three in the beginning of this video is actually this same helmet I built for you....

Can't wait to see the display, if it's anything like the pictures I have seen, it will be stellar.

Spase.. you're here!.. Oh.. I was going to direct everyone to the 405th.. But that's good.. glad you chimed in so people can contact both you and Adam.

As an update - I did launtry with the helmet on - I turned on the LED's and went down to my basement in the dark - the LED's are so bright - I could see with absolutely no problem...

Fiance may be calling off the wedding though.. hahaha :rolleyes
 
Re: Master Chief by Spase and MjolnirArmor

The real question is, what else were you / were you not wearing when you did the laundry with the helmet on :p
 
Re: Master Chief by Spase and MjolnirArmor

Spase's helmets are VERY nice. Top-notch work.
 
Re: Master Chief by Spase and MjolnirArmor

Adam and Spase made your armor? I'm jealous!

Looks awesome!

:D:thumbsup
 
Re: Master Chief by Spase and MjolnirArmor updates on display - more pics!

Got a poseable mannequin - it's kinda flimsy and the armor is really heavy so I have to reinforce the mannequin a lot.

Got more pieces from Adam so I couldn't resist putting some pieces on the mannequin and taking some pics. It looks great - photographs well. Please excuse any weirdness of the pose or anything... This mannequin has been bent around and contorted a lot while being reinforced. The pose is supposed to mimic master chief holding an assault rifle.

Either way - more pieces should arrive sooner or later - I like the poseable mannequin - however, it's a pain to reinforce. This may be one of my best/lifelike displays yet.

Looking good so far. The I have a feeling your mannequin Chief wants to be a Recon winner ;) if you know what I mean.
