I used to rock the scanner helmet back in the day because (to quote my friends) "it looks like someone smashed a VCR player onto your helmet". Your redesign makes me want to see it in-game again!
The scanner redesign is my favorite! I also really like the fotus redesign as well, you managed to make a really wild design fit in nicely with Infinite's aesthetic
The fact that 343 hasn’t hired you to design their halo armor for infinite is insane. It pains me that I can’t equip all of these in game, amazing work 😍🙌🏻
As eyerolling as the "[company], HIRE THIS MAN" sentiment can be, seeing how they translated Linda's helmet into gen 3 for the encyclopedia makes me cringe more than that ever could
I feel like if you took a different approach, the Fotus could've made good Tenrai helmet and kept the more 'ornate' and fantastical bits of the design and stayed more true to the original feel.
I like how you kept the forerunner/human hybrid angular look to the fotus helmet, would like to see the hellcat armor and prefect armors in infinites style to capture more direct forerunner and ancient human designs in infinite/h4 style
Another excellent video from you. The Fotus redesign was pretty awesome, and gives it a bit of an aggressive and bulky look that just feels more at home with a game where the main enemies are raging space gorillas. I didn't expect this helmet in particular to be one thatI would truly like, due to the original being a bit much for my personal aesthetic tastes. The Scanner helmet too was a great one. I never had much of a problem with it originally aside from it being a bit busy and not really emphasising the visor much, and the redesign cleaned it up. The redesigned scanner without the actual scanner looks really cool and I definitely wouldn't mind rocking that.
As per usual, you've knocked these out of the *PARK!* I personally think the FOTUS horn should be a bit longer, though. But I can adjust to this smaller size - looks more rhino-esque than unicorn-inspired. 343 *REALLY* should hire you and give you all the creative freedom in designing new armour and redesigning old ones!
excellent work once again! i think out of these my two favorites are cinder and fotus, for how you were able to adapt them to a different art direction :3 they still evoke the original designs while doing something a little more in the vein of infinite's look, which is very impressive. cant wait for the next project ! ;3
I have an interesting idea to see you draw, reverse-engineered enemy weapons. Like what would a unsc plasma rifle or needler look like. Or a human shotgun made into a brute weapon. I think it would be a fun twist and lore expansion about experimental weapons. And elites with human weapons are surprisingly more deadly (in reach firefight) so it would be fun to hear elites coveted human weaponry.
An idea i had for the FOTUS attachment, is playing into the fact that ‘FOTUS’ is the like goofy/non-canon manufacturer in the game, and the horn of the helmet could be a attachment for all helmets lol
you should do videos on larger topics in the universe, like a video on lesser seen factions or something. Would be cool to see you put together an aesthetic for a handful of insurrectionists from different rebel cells or maybe jackal pirates or something. Might be a lot of work but might be fun.
I'm always amazed at how you manage to make helmets I despised look so good! Honestly, every single one of your redesign is worthy to be 3D modeled into Infinite! Insanely good work, I really wish 343 would take notes/hire you to bring those amazing redesign to life!
Hard to pick a favorite from such great options! But, I love Buccaneer, Fotus, and Scanner. When I first discovered the concept art for Scanner, I really wished we could take off the attachment (even if it's the whole point of the helmet). I'd really love to see you tackle the Raijin helmet sometime. It's easily my favorite helmet from Halo 5 and, if it ever came to Infinite, I'd hope it would be free and if not, I'd actually consider buying it!
What if instead of the fotus being a helmet for the mark 7, it was a helmet for the rakshasa core and the horn attachment was a trophy stuck onto it? We see rakshasa spartans using covenant armor as their own or skulls as trophies. And with some of the higher rank elite and brute helmets having horns they could definitely take it as their own. Might be a more organic way than what I could only justify as the unsc making a basically bayonet for a helmet.
Honestly I kill for more spartan armor that has covenant/banished armor pieces slapped on, like the elite general helmet or hunter spines. Those brute shoulder pads and Doisac's kiss are really cool.
Going through your redesigns: (in my own opinion with respect of course) Pathfinder - Pretty solid. I guess i would describe the visor being closer to a smashed Y but other than visor shape; basic yet solid. 8/10 Scanner - Pretty much perfect. And attachment idea even better. 10/10 would wear. Cinder - Close and definitely a challenge. Im unsure if making it a Yoroi core helmet would've allowed you to lose the lip, but i do find it to be my core disagreement with the redesign. Just the ability to take that off as an attachment would feel a lot closer to the og. 7/10 Fotus - Man did you go for some challenges. My first idea was to make a basic helmet and add a shop item like bunny ears. Aside from that, I love the base helmet and ability to take it off. Now the horn is understandabley shorter which i do enjoy, however i wonder how it'd look as straight versus curved. As is it reminds me of more of a rhino horn than unicorn. If this made it to the game I would like the horn you have as an option because I do like it though. 7/10. Buccaneer - Pretty solid again. I haven't looked at the other SPI helmets in a bit to see how different this one is to justify inclusion, but it's a good design, an interesting helmet style/attachment option, and fits incedibly well with the armor core style. Seemless 9/10. Good work though! These are always fun to watch and look at!! Well wishes for uni and balance!! 🧡💙💛
@@Wernissage Thank you! And to be clear, I love your style and see the effort you put in to bring these to life. My "ratings" aren't grades but a combo of how well I felt you did and how much I personally enjoyed them. Also I liked your commentary about the general challenge of "porting" these into Halo Infinite with the more realistic armor versus what Halo 5 had. It takes a lot to interpret them without losing their spirit and look. I'm happy that so far the Infinite helmets we do have, have been so faithful if not better in Infinite and I feel a lot of your designs would match that with me and the community at large. Keep up the great work!
While Scanner is my favorite of this bunch (with or without the attachment, I can't quite decide, because the name doesn't make much sense without the Scanner piece but it shows off this really cool combination of the mouth piece and visor shape), the Pathfinder redesign has had the most interesting effect to me. Something about it looks really well guarded against the environment and in combination with those prominent ear muffs bringing the idea of comms to mind, its name fits so much better with it than the original. The only thing missing to perfect that effect would be a sensor suite attachment of some kind.
I'm very much glad that you're expanding the versatility of these helmet designs for the other cores 👏👏👏 I also believe that thos opens up more flexibility for the really round ones to work with the other cores like Chimera and Yoroi.
very nice Vid Wernissage. Love the Fotus redo, Scanner looks very good as a base helmet ( if its for the Rakshasa maybe the scanner could be a field mod scanner like the rest of the series) the others look very good and could be good additions.
All bangers, as usual, but especially Fotus. The horn went from "random spike" to very "commander antenna", amd the whole package just looks very reinforced and hard to break.
Excellent redesigns! I can honestly see the base for both Cinder and Buccaneer as Halo 3 helmet choices, and the Fotus redesign for Halo Online. Keep up the amazing work you do and I definitely hear you about university I feel so behind on channels I follow cause most screen time is just for work or school work, but you got a life too and loyal fans understand that and don't trip.
That means a lot!! And thanks for understanding, I definitely feel you there. And yeah I’m so grateful for everyone who sticks around through it all. Appreciate it!
Very well done! As a huge fan of 5s crazy designs, I feel like this was a very fair and carefully done rework, and I really enjoyed it! If you ever do more Halo 5 helmets (pls pls pls) I would love to see my personal favorite, Mako, specifically with the Chthonic skin. Thank you!
I think it would've been pretty cool to have Forus part of the Raksasha core. The horn could be a real horn, or one fashioned from Covenant armor plating.
I’ve always liked the Scanner Helmet but I could never get it to look good with the armor that I liked but if it had looked like your redesign I would’ve rarely used a different helmet. Makes me wish it actually was in Halo Infinite and looked similar to your design. Your cinder redesign kinda reminds me of the Forerunner helmets from Halo Legends.
So, I think in future, definitely attach the helmets to whatever core you're implementing them with, it makes the design feel so much more complete than a floating helmet. (Not that the floating helmets aren't gorgeous in and of themselves. They are.)
New to your channel, but i really love your redesigns. Have you ever thought about converting fantasy armor into spartan armor? I'd love to see TES themed armor like Deadric or Glass.
Uff, me encantan tus re-diseños, me encantaría ver tu versión de mi casco favorito de h5, dead eye. Wow, I love your re-designs, I would love to see your version of my favorite h5 helmet, dead eye.
Always love the redesigns for the helmets you tackle. Fotus is one of my least favorite helmets, primarily because of that ridiculous horn. So you doing what you did made me really like the helmet now.
Tacking some examples' on to my earlier comment, Chris Redfield, HUNK, Leon Kennedy, and even Nemesis as Spartan's, or Halofying Resident evil weapons like the Samurai Edge would be something new to try.
These designs are so on point, no pun intended. I was immediately disappointed by your Scanner redesign due to the fact that assuming 343 redesigns the helmet, they won't do it as well as you did! You did it PERFECTLY
Fotus went from looking like a unicorn, magical and completely unrealistic, to looking like a rhinoceros, powerful and bulky.
ngl I dig FOTUS, gives next-gen gundam model vibes and I love it even if it’s silly
i love both versions
It also is poetic because the concept of Unicorns came from Europeans hearing about Rhinos back in the medival period
I used to rock the scanner helmet back in the day because (to quote my friends) "it looks like someone smashed a VCR player onto your helmet". Your redesign makes me want to see it in-game again!
There’s just something about a VCR helmet that’s so fucking cool! Thanks man🫶

I love these designs, bros making more content than 343 🫡
That would require 343 to make good decisions which they almost never do.
As eyerolling as the "[company], HIRE THIS MAN" sentiment can be, seeing how they translated Linda's helmet into gen 3 for the encyclopedia makes me cringe more than that ever could
because it would require actually making and adding content based off the designs
If i remember correctly, 343 is hiring art designers, he definitely has a chance.
I feel like if you took a different approach, the Fotus could've made good Tenrai helmet and kept the more 'ornate' and fantastical bits of the design and stayed more true to the original feel.
Good point. We already have Kawari
I commented that before checking comments. Ya beat me to it.
Might do some technical drawings of these helms. So damn good, dude! 👍
Please do! Tag me in that case!
@@Wernissage sent a WIP in your server. Its a bit messy right now, but I plan on making another draft digitally after getting it down on paper :)
Your redesigns are always so sick! Do you by any chance do commission work?

FOTUS being more "Rhino-like" feels right :)
I’m really happy to hear that. I put a lot of effort into making sure they’d be the best they could be, so I’m glad you like them!
As per usual, you've knocked these out of the *PARK!*

I love your FOTUS redesign. I wish it was in the game
The scanner is badass!!!!!
bro turned Fotus from a Unicorn to a Rhino. nice

Honestly, every single one of your redesign is worthy to be 3D modeled into Infinite!
Insanely good work, I really wish 343 would take notes/hire you to bring those amazing redesign to life!
I feel like the old fotus look could be on tenria
Cinder redesign is my favorite, Keep up the good work!
Hellcat is my favourite from Halo 5
My favorites are Cinder and Fotus, those redesigns are just incredible
Hard to pick a favorite from such great options! But, I love Buccaneer, Fotus, and Scanner. When I first discovered the concept art for Scanner, I really wished we could take off the attachment (even if it's the whole point of the helmet).

Your remake of Scanner is just beautiful

Holy moly, these are awesome.
You killed these designs man. genuinely BEAUTIFUL work. They stay recognizable but merge with infinites classic halo leaning artstyle perfectly.
Thank you!!
That FOTUS is pretty good without the horn! Color me surprised!
They all look incredible, Wernissage never misses
Cinder and Fotus were my favorite redesigns in that order. Excellent work!
The king is back

These are ALL amazing.
Buccaneer was already my favorite armor in Halo 5 and your redesign is perfect and wish it was actually in Halo Infinite
Your designs are as good as ever. Would love to see a follow up with H5 helmets.
I love the redesigns, especially with how you were able to redesign fotus and make it look practical. Perhaps you could redesign metroid helmets next?
All bangers, as usual, but especially Fotus. The horn went from "random spike" to very "commander antenna", amd the whole package just looks very reinforced and hard to break.

8:50 Masterpiece 👏😢
I think it would've been pretty cool to have Forus part of the Raksasha core. The horn could be a real horn, or one fashioned from Covenant armor plating.
Always look forward to these uploads!
All in all, great redesigns
Its really sad that alot of the halo 4/5 helmets loss their silhouette in translation.
I've never been a fan of the "fishbowl" type helmets, but buccaneer goes so well with the SPI core and I'd definitely use it in Infinite.
Incredible, you translated those helmets to Halo Infinite's art style very well !
The Scanner helmet looks absolutely amazing man
I really like how you handle Fotus. Probably one of the more out-there designed helmets.
The horned Fotus looks like it would pair great along side some elites.
Very nice stuff, and I do love this format over the fan lore format of videos of the weapons, as I love the higher focus on the redesign itself
These videos are always great to watch! Thanks for sharing!
Funnily enough, the model for Scanner used in Halo 4 and 5 does actually have the full visor modeled, it's just hidden beneath the attachment.
Oh I didn’t know that, that’s wild hahaha
Fotus has to be my favorite of these. Because I actually like the redesign, while I absolutely despise the original.
The Scanner redesign is my favorite 😍
Alt-scanner is now one of my favorite helmets, i need it
Cinder and Pathfinder are so good. Man, i wish you were in charge of designing armors at 343 fuckin' hell.
I love the Scanner redesign. I want it on my Rakshasa
I’ve always liked the Scanner Helmet but I could never get it to look good with the armor that I liked but if it had looked like your redesign I would’ve rarely used a different helmet. Makes me wish it actually was in Halo Infinite and looked similar to your design.

So, I think in future, definitely attach the helmets to whatever core you're implementing them with, it makes the design feel so much more complete than a floating helmet. (Not that the floating helmets aren't gorgeous in and of themselves. They are.)
This year will mark 10 years since halo 5
There all my favorite but fotus may looked better on chimera
Still would absolutely love to see some original and redesign covenant armours. Wishing you luck !
Buccaneer is like a updated version of the halo 3 eva helmet
Doing God's work
🤘🤘🤘
Need me a Wetworks in infinites style! was one of my favorite designs that kinda fits into the whole assassins look.
New to your channel, but i really love your redesigns. Have you ever thought about converting fantasy armor into spartan armor? I'd love to see TES themed armor like Deadric or Glass.
Scanner is magnificent.
3:42 Fan Favorite?…damn
Buccaneer is perfect as a Mirage helmet, considering its background as a "custom gaming PC" of a helmet.
Oo helmets 🤤
Also, I love the Pathfinder redesign but maybe the chin and forehead part could be a little sharper ?
they all look awesome
I actually really like path finder now thanks to you, man I love all the helmets. You would make so much money off me in the halo store 😅
The vanilla Fotus looks like Bayverse Megatron with a horn lol.
Could you imagine if the armour in infinite was even half as good as your work? that would be infinitely better than what is currently available
My only critique is that I woulda made the fotus horn look more like some sorta sensor system
These look sick brother! Hoping you'll do Jumpmaster one day for all of us Johny Bravos
Uff, me encantan tus re-diseños, me encantaría ver tu versión de mi casco favorito de h5, dead eye.
Wow, I love your re-designs, I would love to see your version of my favorite h5 helmet, dead eye.
I love scanner without the scanner
Always love the redesigns for the helmets you tackle. Fotus is one of my least favorite helmets, primarily because of that ridiculous horn. So you doing what you did made me really like the helmet now.
That’s great to hear, thank you!
I've said this earlier in the transformers as Spartans' episode, I think Resident evil characters as Spartans' would be interesting to see.

*You should do another video with the HCS armor from Halo 5, Heiloskril and Achilles. Those are my favorite armor sets from Halo 5.*
You’ve managed to make me like Fotus, 343 needs to hire you 😂
The yoroi core has some big horn too. Maybe you could have turned fotus into a yoroi helmet.
Great Work as always!
Man 343 needs to hire you. I thought that the halo 5 halmets are mostly shit but you fixed it 👏
Fotus will always suck
These designs are so on point, no pun intended. I was immediately disappointed by your Scanner redesign due to the fact that assuming 343 redesigns the helmet, they won't do it as well as you did! You did it PERFECTLY
You should put the dead space armors in the HALOFICATILN machine. Specifically the engineer, military, security and some of the dead space 3 armors
These look sick! I wouldn't mind seeing any of these in the game at all. I wonder what you think a redesign of Helioskrill would look like? 🤔
Great stuff as always
Fotus was honestly the hardest one to port since that horn is really out of place.
Think you did a good job with it though!
Oh definitely. Thank you!
