[TheFranny117]

[MLGHaloKid]

VETO VETO VETO VETO VETO VETO VETO VETO THIS FUCK SHIT FUCK FUCK FUCK NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOO!

BTW Nice video.

[BloodyAces4]

epic



[LiLMontizzle]

dude tha- th- wha, it, WHAT!!?! :D

[l7335]

that was epic my friend. keep it up!

[Hungryadamjones]

Wow that was pretty awesome,Nice :D

[NobleProtocol]

Wanna do some CGI for Halo Machinima I am making?

[battlefield3media]

was this a rigid body model?

[PacdemonStudios1]

ok so for those of you who are just complaining about how all he did was make his hand move, you have no idea how hard it is to animate in 3d. you have to make every single part of his body move the way it's supposed to, and check each frame by circling around everywhere to make sure it looks right. the fact he made it look this realistic is mind blowing

[McKaners]

@PacdemonStudios1 :)

[POTATOOFDEATH1337]

@PacdemonStudios1 well , its actually not thaat hard to be honest :/

[john1190100]

Is 3ds max good to make something like Monty Oum's haloid or is there something better?

[CSRgamer]

Dude you should've put dog tags in his hand...

[hjpz117]

i have videos of halo.... camera track

[banebreaker3]

9 months!! rlly? well it looks badass though

[jhonvick2007]

Esto se parece a el traje de inquisidor

[johninator95]

sorry but i lol'd when i seen it say it took 9 months

[pivotfight3r]

OMG you should make the little scenes that they have in-between the Halo campaign!

[XxQmanxXP2B]

god Damn, 9 months? No wonder disney and pixar need god damn army of animators!

[OurFall3nH3ro]

that's fucking insane.

[oberjohn118]

maybe its a good for halo 4.

they can call it: mark 7 armor.

[b2c2552]

WTF nothing happpened!

[ShwamoRox787]

wow that is actually cool but you need to make it longer butt (=p) great wwork

[pikachuhat]

... Looks like a 4 year old, big head, small body.

[Tepicoelano2]

is there something wrong with your normal map?

[McKaners]

pretty much. also, i was going to UW full-time + being an athlete. didn't have much time to devote to 3ds. :)

[justawsome9]

@McKaners Would you be able to do a first person shot of a spartan 3 putting on his helmet in a falcon for me?

[khainguyen98]

@McKaners your an atlete and you can do this? thats amazing!

[iJunkizz]

What took 9 months? the animation could have easily taken a day...so i guess modeling, skinning, rigging?

[TheHaloCEfan]

beautiful

[BlACkDRago223]

... u are god.... i'm not worthy..

[flotch93]

where did you get the backround?

[deviIstudios]

Awesome but was 9 months really worth it? I would never have that patience.

[ImperialTau]

@deviIstudios I would..... not lol

[McKaners]

Check out McKaners on TurboSquid

should find what u are looking for. And more. :D

[flotch93]

do you have the rig available for download?

[McKaners]

:) well, that is just so sweet. :P

[LuckyLu717]

Funny....a guy named Guitarmanjim88 has this exact same animation on his youtube account....

[McKaners]

@LuckyLu717: Copying is the highest form of flattery. ;) As you can see. :P

[LuckyLu717]

@McKaners that it is.

[MrHeadshot12345]

sick, no joke thats  awsome

[LIFESaREALLYlongGAME]

he looks skinny but nice video mate

[drcool41]

damn, nine months

[tyleraaronshow]

how do you make these

[LosTimeProductions]

Hey. My machinima group is currently looking for somebody with animation capabilities. If you're interested, please message me.

[iStocop]

G Mod?

[Atarien6]

NICE model.

[brutecheiftian]

i meant his hand

[brutecheiftian]

i think somone stomped on his feet

[DevsterUS]

what the fuck

[FrozenCore94]

The Fingers Are A Bit Thin ..

Something Is Odd About The Thumb too o,o

[hussi434]

lololololololol

[TheHaloCEfan]

looks more real than HALO 3

[Nightraven117]

awesome! great job!

5 * and favs!

[ilikecheese419]

o...m...g dude youre awsome i just wish you made it longer

[SPBTsnyder]

better than what bungie did imo

[fullmetalmc]

its a pity Bungie said there would be real visor reflections for H3 but they were not able to deliver

[JuniorProducer1996]

@fullmetalmc

it was real reflections, just REALLY hard to see the reflections of the guys in front of you

[fullmetalmc]

@JuniorProducer1996 nope Bungie said the visors use cube maps

[JuniorProducer1996]

then what the fuck did i see......... 0_0

[Chipmunkool]

So much detail to the textures and animation, bro. 5/5

[McKaners]

The model is not free. I have not distributed it at all.

[csswafford]

hey can u send that file to me, im an animator and could animate him into a scene, ill give full credit to you for the model

[vcga]

@McKaners u intent to get money from a fan made?... u cant even sell it for a try... that would be against the law

[legomationdude]

oksorry lol(spazoid)

[legomationdude]

thats pretty cool but if it had like a fight goin on would have been better

[CorruptedHalo]

do you know how long it probably took him to make that model? its harder than it looks.

[TDO615]

yeah and the animation isnt easy either its hard to make it look smooth a fight scene would be incredibly hard

[hereticherob91]

what a waste of 9 months guys

[ChaoticHamsters]

shut your mouth...

[backyardfreerunner]

his armour looked rubber in this video

[xEmzx19]

its being made "again" steven speilberg is filming dont belive me look it up on facebook or google or bungie

[avery1555]

Sorry gabzee78, your the dumbass. If you paid attention, they were making it, but then stopped because of contract issues. What was the Halo movie got converted into Peter Jacksons District 9

[Hockeymonster95]

district 9 aliens kinda resemble elites in my opinion

[manme8]

lol district 9 aliens look like giant insects and elites look like giant walking lizards

[killerlad9]

lmao true!

[xiamscared]

What? that warthog scene was to promote Halo 3. It had nothing to do with the halo movie; it was promoted when halo 3's maps came out.

[Mrsquirrle1]

nah there not making a halo movi, to many problems with it. i dont know what whent wrong but there have been rumers about a halo movi for years

[xSpringfieldx]

they had it in development for 5 months, but canceled, not sure of the reasons. either way. after canceling Halo they started on District 9. so we have "District 9" instead of Halo.

you can see the similarities.

[weelee40k]

ok here it is halo movie put it this way radio silence since december october what happend is peter jackson is working on it but fox pulled out so i dont rlly kw whats been going on but i kw that for sure um i have been told peter jackson is working on interactive movies for halo but it was ment to be reach so theres not any news wheter its still happening or not

[illcommentu]

its good and all but for a 9 second clip and it took that long maybe they couldve made it longer, im not saying it sucked or anything just that its a waste of 9 months

[briatom7]

ppl did u kno that they making a gear of war movie and halo movie!

[anubis33233]

I would love to have the Rigged, Textured version of that model...

Im lazy like that.

[supersmashbros4321]

God that mustve taken a long time

[assassin34]

How pointless...

[Alonguy98]

You don't know how hard it is to model from scratch, do you?

[GreenTwisterr89]

you are pointless assasin this is awsome

[K0Studios]

You dont seem to know how much that takes time...

[xzn00bzx]

00:08 - 00:19

Nice work btw :)

[Ardit1996]

How can i do that animation???

I mean with what program???

[t0bi4z]

3Ds MAX

[Ardit1996]

Just tell how to do it please!

[t0bi4z]

Its very hard, and the program cost 3500$. It takes long time to learn...

[Ardit1996]

OMFGBBQ too expensive :(

[halocow540]

YAY YOU MADE HIS HAND MOVE! the best thing ive ever seen!!

[liom101]

:/ shows how much you know, have some respect for other peoples work. nice vid, sorry i had to say so whilst teaching some brainless sob manners, :) congratz

[Spectra989]

i know he acted pretty rude but he was actualy right, i do 3d animation and once you have your character fully modeld textured and rigged, its very easy to make it move and the animation could of been alot longer, altho i give this person props for the amasing model and texture

[silentbf]

I only wished I had some already made models of halo 3 , then learn to animate in 3D studio Max or Maya..t

[niccachu1700]

dude awsome graphics but u made him to skinny other then that awsome job

[flameomega1]

Yeah he's just a bit skinny, thats all I can see in flaws and the textures are bit messy, but other than that, its awesome. Wouldn't you say?

[cornchips88]

lmao nice it takes a long time to make 3 second vid :()

[cornchips88]

i hate 3ds max always freezes on me

[14Greekboy14]

ooookeeeee ?

[RandomAntidote]

what the fuck was that?????????lol

[InternalStryke]

Hey man. I couldn't imagine doing a PICTURE looking as good as this.

[CmdrTrojan120]

well done fantastic

[Danny98890]

i think umm master chief ish kinda too skinny :D

[zzNinjaBrozz]

Sadly its only nine seconds but great job with the grapics 10/10

[Spartan117SM]

awesome

[SniperSoopy]

Holy!! Dang this is amazing 5/5,added to my favorite's and I subscribed amazing work!!

[calapanpo]

"not yet" :)

[musthavebrains23]

holy. how did u do that???

[zues998]

awsome but look at the neck and hand compared to a real spartan they just look funny to me

[hillbilly7707]

yea they are way 2 small

[nameno1elsehas]

its really good, but the head is sooooo big

[Aaron117x]

yah somehow..

[hansstormtrooper]

FREAKING AWSOME

[tunka83]

u gotta be kidding 9 months

[mcwesalot]

to make it look realistic and sync up with the audio, yes

[Ardit1996]

i love this animation LOL

[krazyglue619]

lol i alomost thought he gave me the finger lol but very good animation i love it

[donutman098]

do u have the max file, im interested

[flameomega1]

They made it in 9 months.. you think they'll give up 9 months of work to random ppl on the net? if you do.. I can only hope you get help...

[craman5]

sick 5/5

[OMG2GO]

wow...nice...epic beyond belief. 5of 5

[DirkMagius]

i think its better than bungie's master chief. the armor is more realistic, i mean its camo instead of that bright green bungie's MC is running arounjd in on the battle field.

[flameomega1]

THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING! Im like... "..For some reason this looks BETTER than bungies MC.. it has much more Visor details and Armour details" Dont you think? the only thing it needs touching up is Paint scratches lol well thats all I could think of.

[o0NiTeMaRe0o]

Great but armor looks flexible.

[EvansFTW]

Great work, it's up there with the best work I have seen done using 3D Studio Max.

[xSpartanSoldier117x]

cool I'll Subscribe

[n1u2t3z4]

worth it

[Bojohn14]

nice job dude.

[kona360]

WOW ! you should make a longer version

[EUBG]

Over 9 months of work, for a 9 second shot.

[DILDjghost]

nice i love the model, you should think about incorperating your skills to make a few halo ce maps, il pretty sure the animtions will looks very nice, same goes for the models.

[Halo22Crap]

that looked kick ass

[garnermovies]

what was the name of the song in the background?

[foozy12]

the Halo theme

[Nitrous0x]

its called Ghosts of Reach from Halo 2

[garnermovies]

Thanks

[Halofanatic15]

Now thats what I call talent, get out there you can make loads of cash with that, the talents i mean.

[JRod1745]

WOW

[Sn1p3rSh4wn]

Now THAT, is dedication my friends.

[outlawedman]

pretty cool, you put a little to much detail in the armor.

[BeachpartyClan]

FUCKING AWESOME!!!

[samkalvy]

my machinima is gonna be done on computers but its gonna be like the red vs blue GCI episode 1 its amazing and ill make some just like it at some point

[spriter01]

machinima r made in games

[BeachpartyClan]

machinmas are video's made using the game engine...

otherwise it will be like doom:the movie...

[Darrknox]

This was completely amazing I'm working with free form animation with pre given meshes and this reminds me that all the practice is worth it!

[DEElekgolo]

Fail.

[Yahoodotcom]

DEE, get out of here; its a non-halo CE community.

[DEElekgolo]

Yahoo dont be a shit. The video is off reference. Spending that much time on a crappy video is use less. And I dont only hang around with CE people. I am a CG animator. Halo CE is low poly. They share very much the same elements.

[Yahoodotcom]

I was just messing around..:p and besides, its nice, and I do agree it is off reference

[meatwad260]

you should totally hook up with a major gaming thing,help them do all their cut-scenes.

[ChewTuber]

9 months my ass

[bloodl3tt3r]

No dude, this kind of shit WILL take 9 months. Believe me, making a model with this kind of detail takes TIME. And if you have a shit computer like me, rendering the video frame by frame takes a long time too.

[ps3sucksassballs]

must of done alot of work with the visor. its perfect

[ps3sucksassballs]

was this 9 months pure work on this ? or did you go on and off with it ?

[tbonemlb36]

nice

u dont walk the plank

[BOREDxOFxEDUCATION]

how do you make these? what do you use?

[JohnnyMandrake]

He used 3Ds Max, and if it's anything similar to Blender, from the other vid of his I think he started with a basic box extrusion mesh, subdivided (made more detailed) and textured/added armeraturs. I couldn't ever produce something like this in Blender though, maybe 3DS is worth the investment...

[bloodl3tt3r]

3ds max is worth it. That's exactly what he did, although he probably used a reference image as a base to work with.

[ChewTuber]

He made the model -

textured it-

animated it-

and he does not have a shitty computer-

Could not have taken 9 months.

A professional would never take that long

[bloodl3tt3r]

So he's not a professional, doesn't mean he's not good. besides, it's not like nine months total time, is it?

[ps3sucksassballs]

did you take in to consideration that he probably didnt spend all his time on it and could of taken breaks then gone back to it

[ywontudiekid]

EPIC!!!!!!!!!! this is great for student work!!!!!! keep it up! i know how long these things take to make, as i made a short animation once (5 seconds long lol!!). THIS IS SERIOUSLY COOL. and if anyone tells you your bad, they're wrong, very wrong!!!!!

[ChewTuber]

WRONG!

Its very simple to make it look better just by modifying the bump maps. Better rendering methods also help.

[JDOfPivot]

Cool :D

But...

Kinda short don't ya think?

It's amazing though, don't worry.

[omgmasterchief]

dude did u read it took him more than 9 months 4 a 9 second film

[devilrappa]

good graphics and better than bungie

but thats understandable

nice work man

but the 9 months was not worth it

[noobie0003]

gimmie da model plz

[wormsman9]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

[spartan1039]

i was just watching the halo 3 trailer... and doesnt snowbound originate from wher hes at in the trailer? lol

[TheDarkAlly]

The reason it looks better than bungie is because bungie has to ship the models in a lower polygon and resolution count. While if you're doing something like this...it's bound to look better. But still great job on the skin.
