by the way .. halo 2 sucks. in my own opinion

ok
as i promised I have some pics to prove and hopefully get some people to come
I have the custom leather belts made
and we kicked a few ideas around for the belts..
if anyone has good ideas.. please post some pics for me
ahh well here you go

ohh and no lol..that paper is not whats going on the belt .. its the image of what will be engraved on the plates..
we are custom engraving the plates. They will be cut out this week. but as for design of them, such as an image we would use.. well.. thats kind of still in the air.

the belt plate for the main 1 person title will hopefully be done within a week. The other 2 belts.. for tag titles will be done in 2 weeks..
will post pics of people who think they will win..
mid august .... its coming..

So we finally got the 3 leather belts just as we wanted. at least the straps..

All three Belts.. finally


Shot of the somewhat dirty aluminum plate.. yes and it still needs another buffing.. but to be done as soon as it is etched..


what buffing the aluminum does for ya..

Hopefully have some progress on this.. maybe a plate to be etched by the time the weekend is done..

august 20th. coming up soon. more pics of progress to be posted soon
