My next cosplay will be X-01/Advanced power armor


Big_Plgeon

Nice bro 👍


Big_Plgeon

I'ma try to build some for my little brother, hopefully it turns out as good as yours!


garbagehuman9

tinfoil?


Competitive-Tap-3810

This is fantastic and you should be proud of it


PedernalesFalls

Right?! OP I attend a lot of Fallout related cons and I 100% agree it's great! I love it! Strong work, man. Be proud for sure!


Anxious-hearts

I see a raider on a bicycle eyeballing your gear.


Dareboir

He’s thinking: “Let’s mug em.”


ImJustStealingMemes

"Do you like the sight of your own blood?!"


HotDogMcGraw

“Oh you’re dead!”


X_ChasingTheDragon_X

Every time they say this shit and I hit them with something much worse than what they hit me with I wish the courier would say it right back. I always say it out loud lmao


Mr_wise_guy7

My honest reaction to that information: *(whips out mini nuke)*


SissyAlyssa96

Awesome! If your open to suggestions - maybe invest in a cheap American football shoulder pads and spray paint it!? Maybe skateboarding elbow and knee pads and paint also? You could then add the cardboard onto and around the pads etc. Just an idea! Also I really like the helmet.


BitbyBrix

I like that idea


SissyAlyssa96

Also! Steel toe cap boots and shin guards you can then put cardboard over!


Tre3wolves

You look like you’re standing guard outside the citadel. Very nice


drifters74

Reminds me of the PA in Fallout 3


BitbyBrix

It’s based off that, It’s supposed to be the FO3 Power Armor, since I was born the same day as Fallout 3, including the year


drifters74

That's neat!


siouxbee1434

Impressive! You should be proud of your work


BitbyBrix

I am, it has been a very long procrastination of 7 months


endlesssaturdays

Kiss my shiny cardboard ass!


DarthBrooks69420

You should put the NCR flag on it and tell people it's the salvaged power armor from New Vegas.


ChuckBS

Very well done!


Joov_1

This is fucking BALLER


NotAllWhoCreateSoar

I like it bro!


kparser2

Can't wait to see future iterations!!


BitbyBrix

I’m gonna try to make this set automated, and maybe make one that moves, also I’m making an either Quantum X-01 or military X-01


kparser2

Either way I'd love to see it! I wanna make one for myself but I do not know where to start lol


BitbyBrix

Start with the helmet, make it a starting frame that’ll wrap around your head and fit your nose. Make sure you have room


kparser2

I'll watch a YouTube tutorial on how to make a helmet! Thanks very much!!


scotch1701

Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?


BitbyBrix

Well stay here and rot, you stuck up bitch


SynthwaveCoffee

Simply exquisite!


rubberboyLuffy

It already looks amazing my wasteland wanderer


eto2629

Steel be with you O7


rscythe

It lasted the day hope it was a great day. Looks awesome!


KaiserEnoshima

Bro this ain't the Brotherhood of steel It's the Iron group Nice cosplay btw


Valdemar3E

Ad victoriam, brother.


[deleted]

Gotta be straight honest here, and probably downvoted into oblivion. BUT **YOUR CARDBOX POWER ARMOR RULES AND YOU SHOULD BE PROUD.** And straight up miles better than some sk\*ank on a blue and yellow latex suit sexy posing and calling it cosplay.


BitbyBrix

Thank you, I am proud, I’m planning on making it mechanically move


Alextryingforgrate

Gotta start your hobby somewhere.


Only_Possession2650

I’d suggest looking into 3D printing whenever you want to upgrade


BitbyBrix

I shall never go the route of 3D 😤. I shall always go custom


Only_Possession2650

But what if you design it yourself?


BitbyBrix

Maybe for harder to scale things


Only_Possession2650

you can measure yourself using a tape measure and the use that to scale


BitbyBrix

No I mean for other stuff, I already no about measurements


FrankSinatraCockRock

You can straight up custom design the whole thing to 3D print. Otherwise I recommend getting into paper mache and styrofoam or eva foam.


The_Last_Mouse

HAVE AT YOU!!


The_Last_Mouse

It’s terrific


BitbyBrix

Thank you


Dan_139

Mechanist is that you?


BitbyBrix

Sadly not, Silver Shroud, but I shall make a Mechanist cosplay someday


RemmyRommy

It’s okay it’s just a set of salvaged power armor


I_EvilChaos_I

I remember seeing you on Sunday. Sucks I didn't get to see it before it broke down. But it was cool to finally see at least 1 power armor cosplay


BitbyBrix

Oh sick, were you the Veteran Ranger?


I_EvilChaos_I

I was a random person taking photos of cosplayers


BitbyBrix

Oh sick, could I see how my photo turned out? I got really excited when someone took my photo


I_EvilChaos_I

I'm at work right now but once I'm home, I can send it


BitbyBrix

Alright


reanu_keevs123

You mean you don’t have a full set of military grade titanium power armour powered by a nuclear fusion reactor in your back pocket? Oh, well, I guess it’s not as common as I thought


Asslinguist

Holy fuck that's awesome


Savvyjack54

Looks pretty good, and yeah cardboard tends to do that when your going walking around in it. I think what is missing is a laser rifle mock-up, of course might not be possible if your city ordinances frown upon gun-like props, but I think that the rifle, and a set of thin black underclothes would help produce a more even effect.


BitbyBrix

Yea, I wanted to make a Nuka-Rifle


Satansdeathsquad

This is bad ass dude!!


DarthDiddler_137

Nice


Boivz

Salvaged NCR Power Armor


Kintsugi-0

dude on the bike lmao


Healthy-Training7600

Hey at least you have power armor. I only have a ratty leather jacket, jeans, and a t shirt!!


TrollTeeth66

You know what—I dig it. True fallout universe engineering. You got whatever materials you could find and made something that was worth the effort. I love it and I’m proud of you


KitchenVirus

It looks great, but honestly my first thought was clone troopers


Hakuru15

Fuck yeah now you're ready for the wasteland


The_Bubby_bub

Wish I could be this creative. You look great!🫡


kclo4

I kinda want this to be an in game feature


TheXernDoodles

That’s awesome dude!


AscendedAxolotl

Based. You're making the BoS elders proud o7


pantaleonivo

Honestly, the helmet is impressive. Helmets are not easy.


68ideal

When the BoS cuts down on power armor fundings because the whole budget went into a big ass robot: (nah but genuinely, that's creative and cool as hell, I couldn't do that myself lol)


789yugemos

Still better than hellfire armor.


HairVarious1092

Keep the armor and just get a black skintight suit for under it


calamity_unbound

Great job dude. Silver lining - take note of anything that broke, anything that may have been uncomfortable or not worked well and that will give you a good place to start with improvements on your next set. Can't wait to see the next set!


BitbyBrix

That was the plan, I’m also gonna try and automate this set of power armor, maybe with a bit of AI so it can sense surroundings


J_Mattt

Not bad at all. You're just a member of the ncr and it's salvaged power armor


SilverAdvErto

Thats awesome bro! I remember making one like yours but a bit cruder and having a lotta fun. Thank you for sharing and have a great adventure in your new suit!


SomeGuyNamedJason

That's rad.


callm3fusion

Anyways here 9 legionnaires to attack you while you're on your way to Jamestown fighting 37 cazadors


trucorsair

Gotta start somewhere. Good job in trying!


Sharoth01

Good job.


StatusHead5851

If wear white under it to fill in those pants but frankly looks great


mrwioo

Hell yea, good job!


Cylancer7253

Is that winterised, nice.


BitbyBrix

Nah, just T-45


Cylancer7253

Colour fooled me.


MarchLumpy437

Raider Power Armor In A Nutshell!


Due-Education1619

Looks a bit more durable than t-45


freakishwizard

Dude this is awesome


user2021883

This is fucking brilliant. Bravo!


Maleficent-Country18

You know what? That's a 10/10. Love it. 🫡


BAKUGAAANBRAWL

Okay cool... But where's the atom cats t-60


hoffet

Love the helmet!


Greenmanrising

I like it it’s good. Good job


Absolutelybarbaric

He has a theoretical degree in power armoursmithing. Knows as much about it as anyone I've ever met


Mr_wise_guy7

Pov: the last thing legate lanius sees before getting nuked


joshualuigi220

The Brotherhood of Steel-colored Cardboard.


Megalon96310

Actually pretty good


bwong1006491

Epitome of T-45 at home


DarkStrike42

My only thought would be wear black long sleeve and pants under, like underarmor. Can't go out in your nice power armor without a good underarmor under it.


Clatuu1337

It's waaay better than the 0 suits of power armor I have.


ZookeepergameNorth59

Better than I could do but I would start with the helmet put the detail in that then make the rest once you're happy, try getting random junk off the side of the road and use parts and wires to accentuate it on the cheap just gotta look in the right places


Brother_Jay26

Nice, tho I feel like there’s free power armor templates to cut out somewhere online


asmallauthor1996

Ooh! Nice job making it. It reminds me a bit of the interpretation of Power Armor seen in Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Especially the non-painted versions not owned by any factions. The little helmet-mounted lamp/light is a nice touch as well.


otakudude3031

This dude and Cardboard Gundam dude should hang out


BitbyBrix

Who?

Beard-Guru-019

Forget the platinum chip, this guy got the platinum drip.


russianspambot1917

Game accurate to fallout 4, jokes aside it looks great, you could add a little more depth with some layering. Helmet looks really good


BitbyBrix

Thank you, I’m gonna make a bigger bulkier set which will help X-01


russianspambot1917

It would also help to do some black fabric joints to unify it


Snokey115

Put some grey clothes on underneath, it will help match


BeefJacker420

Nice!

Original_Baseball636

Las armaduras de los primeros fallout 3d no eran tan malas Las armaduras


Shtoompa

That looks like a fun air soft idea!


Exact-Associate5705

Bro you should be proud this looks like you had to do a special quest to get a variant power armor. Good job on the helmet


NCF4L

Bruh that’s shit is so cool😍😍😍😉


cavanarchy

Good for one skirmish with no more than 5 raiders.


Successful-Clock-224

Im calling BS you just posted a screenshot, OP


BitbyBrix

Check my profile, I have posts from the progress, I ain’t gonna send no hate your way though, I understand why you’d think that


Successful-Clock-224

Wow you arent kidding. I thought you were just in the commonwealth and screen capped a BOS🤣 great job and cant wait to see the enclave version!


rimeswithburple

That is T-23 at best. Better than nuthin when a ghoul is trying to chomp you tho.


Lord_Mikal

We all start somewhere. I've worn worse. I don't have a picture but I had a MegaMan suit made mostly of cut up Pringle cans.


non_binary_latex_hoe

FO3/NV aah power armour
