I do like the face plate which gives it a fresh look. It could fit in well with nowadays game/scifi movies

lol no worries.. yeah I can see a lot of the influence there, but the design leaves the stormtrooper getup alone, struggling through the wintery frost of bleak disenchantment.... lol

maybe a walk into past history might give you some ideas, Id check out suits of armour from medievil days, some of them were very intricate and ornate, see how they flow and apply that to a modern version, just a thought, either way yours look cool as always.

not copying halo per say. definitely influenced, its a great suit for sure. and i can say the halo suit was part of my reference sheet, along with many other pics of other peoples hard suit designs. im trying to come up with my own take on the hard suit concept. something i'll then make in 3d.

thanks! im playing mass effect now, and i think thats inspiring my choices alot also. especially the Cerberus suits. i think everyone who does one has to owe something to halo too
