Subject: How to create Non-Halo Characters! (cR and Rank requirements!)

I'm a lead farmer, mother lover!

So in the spirit of the older message and hot topic; How to Create Noble Team, I thought it would be fun to do this sort of thing for non-Halo characters that we know and love. Feel free to respond with your own creations and/or opinions on the looks and how they fit or could be improved upon if I missed something!

EDIT 1: Added Ironman and Optimus Prime to the mix :D
EDIT 2: Added Sam from Vanquish
EDIT 3: Buzz Lightyear, the silliest addition as suggested by tomgaz
EDIT 4: A Space Marine, as suggested by forriedude
EDIT 5/6: Tali & Commander Shepard, as suggested by ZOo00OOm
EDIT 7: Added Darktrooper and Gutsman as made by Darkstar_81 since he had posted all the info up!
EDIT 8: Most RANDOM submission by lord kahori, Christmas Tree, too funny not to post.
EDIT 9: Vanity images have been added but keep in mind it was impossible to do them with female bodies or helmet attachments as of yet! Big Thanks though to Ghost10006!
EDIT 10: A whole bunch to add, so much so that we're running out of space on this initial message! I added a few here and if you find my second post on this topic, 3 messages below, you'll find me having erased it's contents and replaced it with the continuation!

Good idea, unfortunately I'm not able to do so at the moment so maybe I'll throw them into the builder tonight. Unfortunately also the Vanity doesn't allow for female bodies as of yet or helmet attachments, unless it was updated and I didnt know.


Yeah good point.

What about the Black Stormtrooper variant in Star Wars (comes in a lot during Return of the Jedi)? I'd imagine same things but all black color instead. perhaps a different chest piece though and different accessories since they do seem more advanced

White Stormtroopers are more recognizable, I suppose. I've always thought that Buzz Lightyear would be an easy look to copy (EVA helmet).

Haha Buzz Lightyear.. I thought about maybe doing a mechanized Skeletor with Haunted Helmet, for some reason that Buzz Lightyear thought made me think of it.

Just posting also because I added 2 new ones, Ironman and Optimus Prime (inside joke with some friends)

Got my spartan to look like Iron Man, female version though. It was funny.

Very nice, I have a lot of these armory items too. I could perhaps take some pictures of my spartan in some of those variants you have listed and send a link to you to look at it.
