Thanks to Kyle Vrieze who did such excellent instructions I was able to build my own Power Armor.

Power Armor
   I replaced the minifig head as I couldn’t find a helmet in a suitable color.
When I tried to pose I had problems to bring the gun into a cool position. It didn’t look like this little guy was on a patrol. I also had problems to make him shoot. Thus I tried to alter the disign of the arms. Here’s the result:
 
Two hinge plates, two 1x2 technic bricks with two holes, one technic pin without friction, a long one with friction, a 1x1 technic brick and a 1x1 brick. Thats all what is different to Kyle’s original arm design. It’s a bit bigger but has also a bit more articulation.

I’m really interested in what you think about those arms
