I picked up a set of the Series 2 Halo 3 figures the other day. After seeing the gold armor on the Arbiter figure I was very disappointed in the look,no one in their right mind would even an alien would go off to battle wearing bright gold armor. So with that I got to thinking of ways I could change the armor but give it more of a camo look. I decided that I wanted to make the metal look like something not seen on earth so I went with a multicolor look that blends silver, blue, purples, turquoise and gold all into one. The finished product turned out so much better than I had hoped and it think it really gives the feel of an armor made from some alien minerals.
