Title: Homemade Little ODST Halo Costume
Brief Description: Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (ODST) character from the Halo video game Franchise.
Materials:
Except for building materials all parts were purchased from local thrift stores. The helmet was created from a kid’s hokey helmet and I used cardboard, bondo and fiberglass to modify front visor area. From visor is cut from 2 liter soda container.
Chest plate was crated from a kids padded motorcycle chest plate with glued on foam plates. Straps are from a computer bag. All arm and leg armor created from fiberglass resin spread on picture mat board. Weapons made of medium density fiber board (MDF).
Time to create:
Excluding shopping for materials estimate 24 hrs.
Thank you for the idea of a soda bottle visor! It is so important for kids to be able to SEE on halloween, but my son really wants a gold visor. This looks great!
