Oh, ye've made yer own assault rifle from Halo? that be cute. Wait, ye've made yer own Spartan suit? Meh, it be okay, we guess. See, the dudes at Peter Mander FX have ruined us forever, because they've produced about the best homage t' Halo one could ever hope for: the ultra-realistic Elite suit ye see above.

Largely comprised a plastic, TLC 'n dark magicks, the suit not only looks impressive, but it be animatronic. We can't imagine the blood, sweat 'n/or tears it took t' produce such a lifelike recreation a this Covenant class, but we can pillage some idea from the video documenting the creation a this behemoth, which ye can find past the break.
