We looked for something unrelated to
Halo for our video pick, but eventually just learned to stop worrying and love the bomb. This Spike TV
GameHead clip shows
Halo fan,
Devin White's rough process in creating Master Chief armor. (We'd call it cosplay, but that's like calling G.I. Joe a doll.) White casts molds from his clay sculptures to create plastic, glistening armor and helmets.
The race is on to hollow-out the
Legendary box into a small, pet-wearable helmet. Watch this fan build a human-wearable one from scratch after the break.

GOLDEYE, F that man, wanted to see more coverage not little snips of sweaty guys in line waiting for the game or that crapy movie.

What?

For once I agree with you muppetmeth...

It looked pretty impressive. Wish they showed the final product and images that were more than flashes...

This is getting insane! As of right now, my RSS feed shows the latest 20 Joystiq headlines. 8 have the word "Halo," and 1 has "Master Chief." If you guys post one more article about Halo 3 before midnight, I don't know what I'm gonna do. I might just fucking buy it!

Cool helmet. I like the added touch of the green lights.

That helmet could fit one huge ass cat.

Just make sure you don't make any complaints about Halo 3 on the gamespot forums. You'll get banned mighty fast.

I bought the silly helmet edition - the truth is, it's not that small. It's too small for an adult to wear, but it's about the length of a football. The bottom of the thing is filled by a plastic panel with a rectangular hole, so you'd have to disassemble it to actually try to put it on someone's head, but if you were 10 years old, you'd be stoked, because aside from not being able to see out the opaque chromed visor, you'd probably be able to modify it to wear.
I took the thing and left it on my pillow next to my sleeping girlfriend this morning and started singing the signature strains from the theme to 'The Godfather' like it was the horse's head. If you haven't seen the film, sorry for the spoiler.

Awesome. Right now in my 3d design class we are sculpting masks. Too bad his owns all the masks we are making x20000.

Looked pretty damn close to the 'real thing" to me.

I really like your design, I hope you get this Devin. I am a designer and fellow artist, and I have a few new and great ideas for your helmet and armor. If you or anyone else who would like to make a set of armor with me e-mail me or contact me using myspace, rob2829.
