Warhammer ThunderArmor

Hey everyone. The mk1 Thunder armour is the first manmade power armor in the Warhammer 40k. It was used by the Emperor's army and the various local technobarbarian warlords (eff yeah) during the conquest of earth, and the beggining of the Great Crusade. It's basically a fallout-tech power armor, with chainmail as underarmor. Could someone make this? I think it fits the whole fallout 3 image perfectly. An anarchistic post-apocaliptic earth where most technology can no longer be replicated, yet there's someone out there trying to bring law and order.

You could use the hellfire armor for the lower half, and the winterized combat helmet for helmet and goggles.

 

Note: According to GW fluff, the mk1 has no "techy" parts on the lower legs. Most combat was waged in close quarters, and for that reason the armor was designed to aid the arms.
