In Response To: Halo Elite (Redesigned Tank Armor) + Recon Upgrade (Jensen)


What software do you use to model and render this?

: Hey guys. Been a while since I've posted here, so I'll start again.

: If you do want to read

: So I wanted to make a new elite. Maybe a few of you have seen my previous
: elite from a long time ago. It's here:

: I have been itching to make a new elite, but I wanted to make it with a
: twist. I knew that I wanted to make a tank elite, so this elites armor
: will be much more bulky than a regular elites. Also, all of the weapons
: will be incorporated into the suit.

: Since this armor was designed post halo 3, I decided that I wanted the armor
: to be designed by both humans and covenant engineers alike, to get the
: most out of it. As such, the design doesn't follow either covenant design
: nor human design strictly. In reality it was just a way for me to have
: freedom to do what I wanted with it. So don't be surprised if you see some
: iron man influenced parts to it. The design looks mostly human.

: In the final render I also want the elite holding a recon helmet in his palm,
: like he decimated a soldier for something. Don't ask me why I just thought
: it would be cool.

: Anyways....
