Woo! It's finally done and I finally uploaded pictures.
This is my MJOLNIR Mark VI Spartan Armor costume, Halloween '08! I won $40 with this.
After 6 months of work and over $200 of supplies, it's done! I like it.
You can find more pictures here:

what is the gold thing you used?

It's a replacement visor for a motorcycle helmet. They run about $60 online, buy if you have a local motorcycle shop nearby they have them about half price!

Thank you! It's made out of cardstock and fiberglass resin. It's a mouthfull to explain, so here's the site where I learned to make it.

You can find all the info you need to make stuff like this. The site focuses on Halo armor like mine, but there are models for other things scattered around that the same techniques apply to.
