Criticism and recommendations welcomed.

I would say more detail on the upper chest area and on the shoulders. Other than that, there's really nothing to crit it's really good :)
E\ and something where the belt would be, but not a belt, at least not the one you showed during the broadcast. If I'm making any sense at all :p

His legs seem a bit short, or his chest too long.

@Elephant

We're going with underarmor stuff similar to that of the Halo 2/3 MC's.

@Mythie

It's all the same height as the original H1 MC. That's why I had the belt there, because it made everything look proportional.

Teh lag

looking good

it seems you took inspiration from halo, halo 2, halo 3 and halo wars

Yeah, It's like a combination of all the best things from the different MC bipeds.
E: with a bunch of kickass custom stuff thrown in.

is this going to be used for spv2?

Most likely yes, because Masters said that they were going create a brand new biped for SPv2.

EVA shoulders? Nice

As far as the lower half of the helmet goes, I'd like to see to see it in the original H1 style, because right now it's too flat and boring.

na i like the helmet makes but i dont like the legs so much

Like it alot. Add more detail to the middle part of the body and add a little more detail on the helmet. That would make it look wicked ;)

I remember seeing an earlier versoin of that model on the original CMT thread, it looks a lot better, great work Nugget!

O christ, something else that's already made. Looks good though, I can give you that.

sorry but i know that there arent a lot of custom masterchief model

so whats this about something else that's already made

I havent seen a lot of customized masterchief models in quite some time

His arms seem longer then his legs...

the legs are just a little bit longer then the arms

make him taller or maybe.... hey why not an elite master cheif or an arbiter? bring in arbiter

You do know this is likely to be used in SPV2. Idk why because i thought the other model was smexy enough.

other model was standard h1 chief wich was reskinned

If you mean Jenna?Lol....There´s so few custom chief models..Usually there is either the h2 chief remakes or H3 chief remakes.

Maybe because not that many people can model bipeds.

they look more like halowars spartans to me

same helmet same chest plates same shoulder pags but nice work there, whos texturing it?

edit: i did see 1 or to differences, the chest piece have different detail and the left shoulder bit is mark (i forgot the number D:)

Its not how you model it..Its mostly if you want to finnish it and if you got some of the talent in proportions..

Um, bipeds require special poly placement, so that it can be rigged correctly and without stretching areas in the model.

Huh?

If the bone structure is too large for the model, the model will stretch itself to make it fit.

e. I'm going to assume Dano is going to texture it.

Huh?
But Bo is right. If you have bad poly placement, the biped will become messed up when you try to rig it.

So?If you clearly have the will to do it calmly and correct you wont have that problem.

That picture is old, from before Halo Wars was released. The Halo Wars Spartans look like this: http://www.primagames.com/blog/files/2009/02/hw-prima-blog-04-01.jpg
Similar, but not quite the same.

This one was used for the Halo Wars teaser trailer.

i like the new ones better :P

Thanks for the pic, bo. I've been looking for that one for awhile. I could only find the low res image. :p

I think a redesign of some parts is in order.

they still look similar me thinks :p
