Halo ODST Costume

My son, Christian (12 years old), came up with the idea to make the costume from a you tube post. He has always been a Halo fan and has wanted a costume like this for years. We began working on it in early August and spent most of our Saturdays on it. It is constructed from EVA foam, hot glue, strapping and buckles, and paint. The visor is made from tinted file folder pockets with mirrored film on the inside so you can't see in the helmet. The gun is also all EVA foam, layer, and a paper towel roll. We had a great time building this together!!
