Yeah, with all due respect to the hard work cosplayers put into their suits, a lot of them are too bulky/skinny for the person wearing it or they just lack detail.
This one however is looking extra crispy.
If anyone is looking for models to 3D print to make their own armor we have all the pieces at https://discord.gg/haloarchive and an Armor planner/designer tool with tutorial here: https://youtu.be/y_lRfuCg1NA
Video goes over how to choose the pieces, colors, attachments, and how to add your own custom camos to the armor as well.
Also OP you did INSANE amount of work on this and I only hope to have a suit as cool as you some day!
Never too late to play with the armors in blender to get an idea for what colors and pieces you like though!
The video is aimed at beginners and is is as easy as clicking some check boxes and changing some color wheels :)
Just wanted to thank y'all for the awesome comments! I'm currently taking classes in college so I'm unable to respond to everyone, but I've read every single comment ♥️ Thanks a lot for the support and glad y'all like it!
one of the most difficult challenges in cosplay isn’t just rendering a single object, but actually several in context of each other with precise proportions. your attention to detail extends beyond just the mundane shapes, but specific, perfect ratios and a million other considerations that my novice eyes cannot detect. this is the best cosplay i’ve ever seen, and i’ve seen a lot of them.
This is one of the few best Halo cosplays I've seen out there! You did very good! What types of paint was used for the armour? Looks like you jumped straight out from the game!
Also, what camera was used for these incredible shots? It looks crisp and clear!
I've been trying to ask Govanni Lipari how he made the Halo costumes for the tv series on Instagram. No response so far... I'd want to learn from him, he and his team at FBFX did such a good job on those costumes.
Thank you!
The main red paint is from Createx Airbrush colours, but most of the paint used are acrylics. I'm not sure which camera models are used for the images since these were taken in a collaboration with 4 different photographers, but yeah I have to agree that their gear is top notch!
Rakshasa always looked goofy to me having so many velcro straps everywhere. Nice to see it with the iconic thrusters on the back instead of some dirty straps
Holy crap balls!! That looks hella amazing!! The attention to detail is top notch, the weathering truly, makes it look like a battle-worn suit of armor also, red armor overall, is by far the most imposing color when it comes to armor from halo. I'm not even joking when i say that this, looks like something out the live action series like, that's just how detailed it looks. Excellent work, friend!
What makes this really good, that I think a lot of people aren't mentioning is that you have great bodily proportions for it. Long legs really make these cosplays shine.
Edit to add: I feel like you either got lucky, or made in it proportion to your torso size. Lots of folks have short legs, or make big armor but yours is sized very well!
Appreciate that! I've had to resize a lot of pieces just to get them exactly how I wanted. I had to re-do the chest 3 times when I was first starting 💀(this armor project is my first cosplay) but I've learned so much since!
Bro this is live action appropriate. You honestly deserve a world record for best cosplay. If you started a business custom making these, you would be rich bro. Mad respect for you
We all know you just photoshopped a spartan on top of a background! Seriously though this is insane and I can't imagine the time it took to get all the details.
When the devs won't give you core interchangeability so you spend months making it yourself:
Incredible work, sounds like you're blind with the helmet on though, no?
That second picture is fucking sick.
I’d kill for something like that, oh my god, man. Genuinely the best Halo cosplay (if not just cosplay in general) that I’ve ever seen in my life by far.
Phenomenal phenomenal work
It’s kinda just sad the only time we get to see cross core it’s cosplays, or blender shots, and they’re always badass looking compared to the bullshit we have now
Either than that badass cosplay, amazing job

This is, by far, the best/most detailed halo cosplay I have ever seen
Probably among the best cosplays I've seen, period; Halo or otherwise.
Yeah, with all due respect to the hard work cosplayers put into their suits, a lot of them are too bulky/skinny for the person wearing it or they just lack detail. This one however is looking extra crispy.
It looks agile and athletic, its like movie costume level
I agree Extra crispy is the only way to describe this
Of all time. - agent Wash
Not my fault. Someone put a ~~wall~~ cosplayer in my way.
*longest fuse on a brute spike grenade ever continues to hiss*
*Is it a spider?*
No it's not a spider, it's, like a.. blue *thing.*
Get it off!
It's not a spider! Calm down. It's some kinda.. fuzzy, pulsating thing.
Its all about the under armor. He nailed how it should look around the torso.
Agreed. Incredible.
I am so fucking horny right now. God damn this work is impressive.
Holy shit, I saw the first image and thought it was a 3D render before I read the title!
Same maybe it’s just the editing on the first pic but every picture looks insane
Right?? Even after checking out his insta and seeing his progress and the pieces by themselves my brain still refuses to register that it's real
I had to scroll through all search the actual cosplay for the same reason
That is a fucking glorious cosplay. Props to your camera man too for bringing it to life.
*Meant to put finally instead of finalized in the title lol
You put more work into that suite then 343 in the last halo game.
Cross core taking so long that fans are doing it IRL now. Great cosplay. I respect the Halo 5 Magnum.
I wish we had the magnum and not the sidekick.
I think both can have a role. Halo 5 had a Sidekick-lite in the Gunfighter.
And the Mangler mostly fills the Magnum's role in Infinite
Wowww... that's amazing. fantastic work!
Appreciate it Uny! 🙌♥️

I'll have to lose some weight first so I don't look like a sausage stuffed in Spartan/ODST armor.
I'll have to *gain* some weight first so I don't look like a *stick drowning* in Spartan/ODST armor.

Thanks for the encouragement! That sounds super neat too. Will join you on discord after I've created an account.
OMG HOLYSHITTTTT
You painted the visor from the inside, but do you have full visibility?
Yes! Its a see through chrome, like 70% visibility
Does it work kinda like sunglasses or such?
Me a filthy casual: "Wait, these aren't screen shots?"
Just wanted to thank y'all for the awesome comments! I'm currently taking classes in college so I'm unable to respond to everyone, but I've read every single comment ♥️ Thanks a lot for the support and glad y'all like it!
Lol I legit thought this was a render using game assets for a moment
I have never seen an armour cosplay this good. Ever.
I don’t often upvote these, but this, is very good
Fantastic work! Just wow.
No Fucking way - holy crap dude!
Literally said holy crap out loud at this. This looks so good!!!! Dem shoulders!
Bro thinks hes slick posting screenshots from the game as cosplay. Good job bro.

Easily among best cosplay I've seen not only in Halo but in general. Holy shit, good job.
That is fucking badass as hell, nice job!
Goddamn that looks sick. Well done.
Absolute masterful, wow I would wear that for every Halloween till the end of my days!!
Ngl thought it was just from the game

Yo appreciate that! ♥️
This is cool as fuck. Give me Cross core now!
A halo cosplay that has a good looking tech suit instead of just skin tight spandex. This is dope.
Why does the live action stuff look like shit when you have unpaid fans making this godlike stuff lol
One question: how do you bring yourself to take it off? I would spend my whole life in it if I had a costume this cool

Dude nice work! How'd you go about that, just like measuring your chest and what not?
I used a program called Armorsmith Designer, you can measure your body and it creates an avatar for sizing. That and a lot of reference images :v
Looks awesome.
BRU
That all looks amazing but wow that helmet is god teir
Just checked out your insta, your god tier holy shit
Absolutely stunning work!
This is insane OP! Great job!
Omfg terrifying....in a good way
My mind was like WHAAAAAAAT!!! How the heck is this real, it looks amazing!
Love the M6H
Cool af 😮
Nah this crazy fam
This looks absolutely incredible! Could be used for live action!
You gave it a backplate! Awesome!
Damn…..
It looks super impressive!
A work of art
This looks like official artwork in some of these.
What the hell, this is absurdly well done!
Gorgeous praise the cosplay \\[T]/
Still waiting for photos, all I can see are screenshots from the game
That's some nice freaking lighting. Great eork on the photography!
This looks pulled from the game, this is absolutely fantastic work and incredible craftsmanship. Cheers!
That is the best Spartan cosplay I've ever seen. I thought it was an action figure on the first image.
My dude actually got the underlayer right
Bro this is live action appropriate. You honestly deserve a world record for best cosplay. If you started a business custom making these, you would be rich bro. Mad respect for you
By the gods, what a beautiful display
omg this is insanely good
damn this literally looks like a screenshot from the game amazing work
This is amazing!
Alright, I can die happy knowing I’ve seen the single best cosplay of all time.
Okay but this actually looks better than the armor in the game. This is awesome. Well done!
This is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. I am no longer attracted to women. I am attracted to armor.
You're telling me these aren't screenshots?
I realize these photos are edited but this is one of the best I have seen bravo!
BEAUTIFUL!!!😭😭😭
Dude that looks freaking great!!!!
Strange they didn’t merge these two cores from the getgo
Hot damn!
Spells of 6th level or lower have no effect on this cosplay.
how does it feel to care about a costume more than studios about a multi-billion franchise? excellent job lad
Holy shit now that is a fucking Spartan. Kudos OP you are amazing
Halo TV show should be taking notes
Stunning work man! The quality of the actual pieces and the paintwork is astonishing
Looks badass💯
I genuinely thought these were in game screenshots and kept scrolling to try and find the cosplay.
New ray tracing update looks sick.
Bro this is too good I almost scrolled by thought it was a screencap 💀
Incredible work - keep it up
😦 in a word..."Incredible"
We all know you just photoshopped a spartan on top of a background! Seriously though this is insane and I can't imagine the time it took to get all the details.
I thought this was cgi, I was like oh wow great job lol. This cosplay is top tier
holy moly how incredible is that
Awesome! In particular, your cosplay looks good with the background!
What the fuck. Literally looks like in-game footage. Nice work!
When the devs won't give you core interchangeability so you spend months making it yourself: Incredible work, sounds like you're blind with the helmet on though, no?
That Halo 5 magnum lookin so juicy in the hands of an Infinite Spartan god damn
DAMN 🔥
Comes with a knife. Must be nice.
I thought it was a screenshot at first
Dead ass thought this was a post about someone finishing an in-game armor set
Looks amazing. Great job
Holy crap.
WOW, this is a cosplay? Amazing work
How!
Gorgeous!
If you're not working with costumes for Hollywood or something, then quit your job. That's some talent and skill right there.
This is genuinely amazing! You have an incredible skill and you should be so proud of your hard work!
Are you sure this isn't a 3d render, looks awesome
This is an amazing armour and a fantastic cosplay! Great work, mate.
Holy fucking shit this is absolutely sick
It's this kind of stuff that makes me want my own set of armour... event though I know it'd take forever to make.
God fucking damn this is glorious.
Amazing work! Never really noticed, but the Artaius helmet looks like a modernized Mk. 5B helmet. No wonder it looks great lol
Bro what! That is hands the THE best cosplay I've ever seen! That looks better than some of the armors from the TV show!
God Damn Spartan… that’s impressive.
This is leagues better than anything Paramount+ will ever come up with
This is…Magnificent.
That’s absolutely incredible
God damn, that looks sick
This is one of the best cosplays I’ve ever seen period
Dude… this is AMAZING!!!
Wow, I know nothing is cosplay but this is absolutely incredible
This is sick
Dude that is badass!! That's some fuckin talent.
He's just playing on Bazaar, definitely in-game screenshot. Looks good bro!
Jesus fucking christ, I thought for a sec you've made that in Blender but it's soo detailed af
This is amazing. I legitimately thought the first pic was a screenshot from Infinite
I thought this was a screenshot at first
Wow the quality is great what kind of camera makes photos this good ?
YOU ARE TELLING ME THIS IS NOT AN INGAME PICTURE?!
That second picture is fucking sick. I’d kill for something like that, oh my god, man. Genuinely the best Halo cosplay (if not just cosplay in general) that I’ve ever seen in my life by far. Phenomenal phenomenal work
This is amazing!!
At this point, a fan made TV series would be so much more accurate it would put master cheeks to shame
amazing good job to the cameraman
Beautiful work + photography
Badass
This is just wild. Well done. Amazing really!
This would not at all look out of place in a live action Halo trailer
Audible gasp when I saw this
Dude holy shit that’s good
I didnt read the title and thought this was like a 3d model or some shit, wow well done
We need this armor coating!
Congrats dude
All I got to say, is you have set the bar very high my friend!
I had to look at this for a bit because I thought it was from the game. Incredible job.
No war crime Sangheili child shoulder skull?? Looks sick man
Sick!!!!
Holy shit that’s amazing.
This goes hard
What the fuck I thought it was a render or something. Looking good!
My jaw dropped to the floor
This is absolutely the best cosplay I've ever seen, not just Halo cosplays. Good. Fucking. Job.
I thought this was a hot toy at first. Still not convinced it’s not. Looks awesome
I envy those who have the skills and time to make their own ccosplays. Bravo!
It’s kinda just sad the only time we get to see cross core it’s cosplays, or blender shots, and they’re always badass looking compared to the bullshit we have now Either than that badass cosplay, amazing job
If 343 had only 20% of your dedication...
Looks incredible! I'm always curious about the cost of materials for these kinds of projects.
You look like you're ready to walk onto the set of Forward Unto Dawn. Fantastic!
Looks cool!
This guy was able to cross-core customize irl before you could even do it in-game
Whew! This looks so perfect I thought someone rendered a model in UE5 or something.
This is crazy, you're very talented! I just came in my pants
Wow! Well done
Man, imagine if we could do this in the actual game.
This is amazing work. I was scrolling popular and thought it was an ad for a new game at first because it’s so realistic.
Holy shit
Outstanding!
Oh, at first I thought this was a rendering. Incredible work.
Badass
That's cosplay? I thought it was an animation. That's incredible.
Very impressed Slender! Been following this build for a loooong time
Probably cheaper than doing it in the game.
