The Evolution of the MARK VI | How Master Chief has changed over the years
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ค. 2020
- It might not have been the first one, but the Mark VI is the helmet we all think of when we think of Halo.
In this video I'll go over every Mark VI helmet we've seen in the games, not only the ones worn by the Master Chief, but the multiplayer variants as well.
Grab your popcorn (seriously you haven't even popped the corns yet?) and get ready, there are a lot of helmets to cover.

Seeing chiefs helmet without the lines made my brain pause for a good minute
It's funny how little details don't seem important to the design until they're removed
@Brantley Felix this is a bot isn't it, I've seen this exact same comment before
@Johnie Braughton same situation with this guy
A tip: if any of you see comments like these, report them
I actually like it more without the lines. It looks more like Mk V.
Talking about "Chief's eyes" really started the mood for the video. It really got into the emotional feel of the armor that I don't think anyone has really reflected on.
That's great! Exactly what I was hoping it would do. Thank you!
A lot of reach helmets have a face emulating the features. JFO especially.
I saw early reach art where Jorge had the CQC helmet and looking at the chest armor it looks like a match but looks somewhat aggressive. Not really fitting Jorge. Grenadier helmet matches his personality.
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
Bungie: *Understood*
343i: *Let's change everything*
343 : "if it aint broke, break it"
Its not that 343s designs were bad, I did like them a bit, but it just felt too changed from its origins.
@@pighead. They were over designed and too generic looking, they look like they could've come out of any modern Sci fi shooter
@@crashbash8549 still not bad designs tho
@@pighead. most were bad in my opinion, the rest weren't bad but they weren't good either
Legit. Watching this brought a tear to my eye. Especially when that piano hit with the infinite helmet reveal. Just...beautiful
Wow, thank you! That trailer always makes me cry lol
Man the 2019 trailer was some blue balling
This......this is beautiful
reaches take on the mk 6 helmet was my favorite...but the infinite mk 6 lookin like a real snack
Hentai Neko it do be looking fresh af tho🤔
Isnt it the mark 7?
Same. It feels so... well, I don’t know. But, I like the mix between the mvi and the mv
@@uncoveredkhan09gaming38 I think it would be the Gen 3 iteration of Mk 6 helmet? The multiplayer Spartans we've seen have the Mk 7 helmets if I'm not mistaken.
@@johnnyfroggo7361 no it's been confirmed i believe that master cheifs new armor is the mark VII, I think it also shows it when the armor is booting up in the discover hope trailer
Loved the video. Your insights and personal art are great. Your editing is also on point.
Thanks boi
@@Wernissage Hi. Would you say the H2A Blur chief is the identic from the gameplay? The saber interactive one?
Literally the helmet is basically what made me want to play halo when I first saw it
Yeah Mark VI has definitely become the icon for the Halo franchise, I get excited whenever I see it lol.
Please make more of these. You have an incredible eye for detail. I never even noticed that the E3 2018 and the Infinite designs were different.
Thank you! Yeah, at first glance a lot of these helmets look the same, but it’s those small details that sets them apart. Might have something new in the works, keep an eye out...👀
The Mark VI is the reason I played Halo. When i was young, I was bad at giving game descriptions, so when I asked for the game where everyone looked the same and shot eachother.
Rewatching these after about a year, and something just hit me about the Halo 4 and 5 designs for Master Chief: His armor is designed to "not look right" if he has his arms down.
It's such a poignant statement about the nature of his character. He only looks "right" and "good" when his arms are up, holding a weapon or in a fighting stance, so he's supposed to always have his guard up, and conversely, how vulnerable he is with his guard down. I think it really shows how much thought 343 put into his character for Halo 4, and I was always disappointed at the fan reaction to the design, even if the critique for the MP armors was still pretty valid.
This music brings me back to when I started playing halo in halo 2...
4:50 Seeing the blacked lower middle part of the visor for H3's helmet (the "nose" cut-out) made me focus on the visor shape and realize how it looks more like a soldier's protected face. It looks significantly more human than H2's, if you squint you can see more of military protecting glasses (styled like HWDE/2), which is very fitting. With the music it gave me vibes of the _Remember Reach_ commercial, I remembered that there is an actual human underneath the armor.
Strong stuff.
Best Spartan Look was in Halo Wars
Personally I like the halo 4-5 design of the helmet however halo 2’s - reach was my favorite design I hope infinite brings both designs into the game in multiplayer player
Ew
@@crashbash8549 hmmm
“I’m just glad we got the classic chief back.” Same man. Excellent video, thank you.
Installation 00 brought me here and you got me to stay👍. Great video all around, excited to see what you make next, keep up the good work
I really owe that guy hahah. Thank you!
Welcome, hope you enjoy your stay!:)
Very well done, considering this is your first video! Well edited, good commentary and just enough analysis to keep it interesting without being too long-winded. I'd love to see more videos.
Thank you! I'll get to work then!
Also, your art was very helpful and it helped to illustrate the points you were making. I'd love to see more of these kinds of comparison videos between the art styles of the different Halo games. Maybe do one video all about vehicles, another all about weapons, etc? Just throwing out ideas. Either way, keep it up!
Louis Clark these are some great ideas! I’m not entirely sure about weapons however, I just don’t wanna rip off the series LateNightGaming has going at the moment. But vehicles and stuff would be great!
I never noticed until this video that there are differences between the Halo 2 and 3 Helmets.
The presentation here is soooooooooo damn goooooooooooood man!
The pairing of your narration with your Halo-esque chapter cards was great! And the way you use those pregnant pauses, followed by the first notes of the topic game's signature musical piece as the chapter card fades in.... sooooooo nice dude.
Absolutely excellent.
God damn Blur knows how to make a cinematic. They always manage to nail that super realistic look without going over the uncanny line
Your channel is something I've wanted to see for a long time, I make halo models myself and it's nice to see other artists talking about the art of halo
I always loved the detailed design in halo 4 and 5. It felt like an evolution for everything, I think the problem was that 343 didn't give an explanation for the armor change, like in halo 2, after that I will miss this design
It wasn’t Bungie who changed the design it was 343
@@TallestCascade you're right my bad
@@KevinBorja You’re sexy
I love the video, and the music you used was perfect. When you played Never Forget at the end, the feelings of the Halo series hit me full force.
Chief is just cute!! I love him a lot! You did a great job on walking through the designs in a way that explained the differences!
Zara W. Thank you Zara!
Cute is definitely not the right word to describe chief
@@Marcus01285 More like “aggressively handsome”
@@lopertyl6534 I certainly agree, but still cute 😂
My theory is that the lines on the Mjolnir helmets acts as an indication of where the HUD (Heads Up Display) would be. Also, I’m hoping that the Mark VI Mod/Gen. 2 armor that the Chief previously wore makes a reappearance as a Gen. 3 port in Infinite. I loved that suit because it made the Chief look far more bulkier and stronger, a perfect appearance for a SPARTAN-II imo.
Thank you for not overwhelming the vidio with too much inflation and outside influence and not bashing the franchise or the armors. Thank you. You have awoken the love we still have for the chief
15:07 "And if you have'nt noticed, this is my first video."
Bro great job, I didnt notice.
Just binged your other videos. This is top tier content, as a whole, not just for Halo. brilliant editing, great custom visuals, and a script that was engaging and informative.
Subbed. Youre gunna make it.
I love this also can you make a playlist for the music you use just really want to know the song at 3:24
Halo 2: Epilogue ( ˘ω˘)ｽﾔｧ
Wern. I really love what you’re doing here. You’re an artist talking about your profession, and I really dig that. Very high quality and backed by experience, not subjectivity. And I love that you didn’t waste time on whats already been discussed to death. Also, it looks like you have excellent engagement with the comment section. Love the editing as well, and have always loved your renditions of the helmets. All in all, very excited for more. You’re a great content creator!
Can’t believe I missed this, thanks man! Right back atcha✌️ Really appreciate it!
Wernissage - The Art of Halo 😄
I think my favorite Mjolnir is H CEA's variant. Wish that version would be an option in newer games
I like the multiplayer versions of h2a, halo 4 and halo 5. Mainly because of proportions but also because of the helmet, sometimes it looks a bit smooshed horizontally but I like the vibe and individual plates and stuff
For me, halo 2 and 3 was too rounded, the face just felt too wide and round, not blocky enough
I loved all of chiefs different helmets, they each added their own mood to him, that was nice
I was genuinely surprised when you said this was your first video.
The quality is indicative of a full-time TH-camr.
Great use of music. I felt chills seeing the E3 infinity teaser again.
I’ve always seen the lines on chiefs helmet
As an indicator of where the HUD display is and how it really looks from a different perspective
Infinite's helmet is THE BEST design of the Mk VI helmet EVER. You can't change my mind.
Didn't expect this kind of quality of a first video! Too bad I didn't get recommended this earlier!
Mark V is my favorite, cant wait for SPV3.3 that will sport a remastered MkV. Unlike the ungoddlyness that is Anniversary.
I just really love the Halo 4 helmet, and will miss it and his armor when it goes away in Halo Infinite
I liked it’s shape from the profile.
I'm hoping that they'll include it in multiplayer
Power ranger armour lol
@@crashbash8549 3v4 bad Bungo good?
@@cooperchance7720 yeah he is pretty bad, he killed Johnson
Fun fact, during the shield test, if you wait a bit to engage the test in halo 2, the corporal says that covenant tech was used in the mk5
The editing on your vids is top notch the musical transitions are seamless too. That *Hope* moment when Chief's first infinite look swelled in like we were in the dark times for Halo to have this breath of light and fresh air.
I do like the way the '18 helmet looked but wouldn't have it any other way than it is right now as far as chief's look.
___
It was particularly rough for me, Halo lost me so xbox lost me when I played 4.
Reach was my last favoured game so seeing how 5 was I was all but convinced halo would never be for me again.
but Halo Wars 2 was the first time I ever considered picking up the series again, seeing the Mjolnir MK IV in all it's beauty make a return and seeing how well the Classic halo artstyle in the modern era, but updated brought hope to me.
I still wouldn't get the X1 for it but seeing the Blur Cutscenes for HW2,
And the 'Know your Enemy' ad is Beautiful and one of my most favourite pieces of Halo media ever made.
_
The Infinite reveal for 2018 and the current look for chief has restored my faith in the series, HW2 was enough to see there's still a chance but the form reinvention for Infinite and 343 is enough to bring me back.
I hope for Multiplayer there will be a Mjolnir MK IV option that would make it 10/10 for me as long as it's as beautiful as the HW2.
am i the only one who though the mark vi with no visor lines (1:48) actually looked pretty sick? honestly would be cool if 343 made that as a variant for infinite.
That motion effect with the text and the helmets gives that Classic Bungie UI feel from Halo 2 or 3. I don't know why. lol
Honestly, my favorites are 4, 5, and Infinite.
Wow this is your first video?!?!? I couldn't even tell! Great work on editing and artwork!
I personally enjoyed the halo four/343 overdesign a lot
Yeah I definitely think they look good, even though they're different!
Same. Second favorite mvi
It looks great in cutscenes but every armor does
I'm glad I'm not the only person out there who likes it because it just felt so off as a halo fan
we met the flood, stopped the halo ring in mark T.
We stopped the covenant and the didact wearing the legendary mark 6.
Now we face the banished, in the revolutionary Mark 7.
This was awesome! I’d love to watch more in depth videos on some of the things you touched on in this video. The eyes concept in particular is going to have me watching the cut scenes all over again!
Messy thank you! I’m working on a new video right now, so it’s coming. Glad you enjoyed it!
The Halo Infinte design greatly resembles the Halo: Legends armor, I always loved that design.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for putting so much work into it. currently doing research for a 3D print project and this helped so much ,
Fun fact. In reach theres an easter egg where you can see the Master chief in his pod in the cutscene at the end of the next to last mission
I love these evolution comparison videos and would love it if you did a retake on them, now that all helmets you've analyzed are in Halo Infinite.
awesome comparison! i hope you do more videos on all the armor permutations (especially Recon)
Thank you! Definitely will someday!
People who play heroric and legendary know this armors made of aluminum
Actually like the infinites armor the best aswell, I remember thinking how cool the chief was on the halo legends art cover, so seeing them take inspiration from it made me happy
Been following these for a while, awesome to see your more in-depth take on it My personal favorite is the 2018 Infinite reveal trailer, followed by the current Infinite design, Halo 3 design, H2A design, and Mark VI Scarred from Halo 5.
Thanks!! And agreed, the Infinite designs are amazing!
This video gave me goosebumps
This is an incredible first video, great job
It's cool to see them all compared side-by-side like this. I never disliked the 343i Mark VI helmets as much as the armor, personally.
Dude, this is a really great video, please do more
Thank you! I definitely will!
Can't wait to see what features besides the Grappling Hook the Mark VI Gen 3 in *Halo: Infinite* has to offer. It looks really good! 😍
Yeah, I'm really excited about the future of the Mark VI!
i honestly never actually noticed chiefs visor lines. imo his helmet looks more clean without the lines but i guess its a perspective thing.
tbh, i don’t feel the h2/3 chief was better than the 4/5 chief, but the infinite chief feels like it’s own thing, just give it the 2018 trailer mouthpiece to infinite chief and boom, perfect
5 months late, but better late than never. Love this goddamn channel!
Edit: In response to the question at the end, my fav mk-6 is also the newest iteration from infinite.
I believe the lines on the visors allow for better HUD clarity and display inside the helmet.
i think that we can all agree that, if H5 was focused on only chief/B.T and cortana, it'd be so much better.
The MK. VI in Halo 4 is actually more than just an artstyle change. It was actually upgraded by cortana during cryo. And before you write this off as another unexplained change Cortana actually said that she upgraded Chief's armor during his awakening (Chief even looks at armor and reacts a bit with "You've been busy). It wasn't focused on but it was definitely implied.
I was given the idea that it was unexplained, and that 343 only brought in that explanation as a way to save their stupid design that lacked an in universe explanation until then
Very well done, sir. I can’t believe this is your first video. It’s evident you’ve done a lot of planning and work, and have passion for halo and this craft you now have. Fuel and foster it and I’m sure you’ll create even more fantastic content. You’ve got a new subscriber looking forward to more videos. Best of luck!
Coils of Apep Wow, thank you so much! Yeah it did take a few weeks to plan everything out lol, I guess it was worth it. Comments like this really make me wanna keep going, so thank you for the kind words. Next video is in production! :)
I actually think Chief’s helmet without lines look cooler tbh. I wish they had a variation for chief helmets in multiplayer lol
Man I just finished all ur videos, from the latest to this one. Great job, it's the best halo contento so far. Keep it up man
Wow you have a great voice and your choice of music and timing is awesome! If you have time you should check out 434’s channel, I swear you guys have the same voice! I love Halo and his videos are definitely not that, he’s more about spirituality which is also great but I just thought I’d mention how similar you guys sound and again awesome video! I can’t wait to see how the Mark VII is gonna look on release and hopefully we have a theater mode so I can hyper analyze every detail on the new armor haha. Have a good one!
You’re right, we do sound kinda similar! I’m still getting used to my voice, but I’m glad you like it. Take care!
I actually like halo reachs Mk VI the most, but I've always loved the black brimmed visor of the Mk V, and not to mention reach has my favourite artsyle of any halo title.
Amazing video. Just one thing. Could you please add H1, H2, H3, HReach, H4, H5 to the comparison images so that the viewer easily knows from what game the piece of gear is from.
I've always been a Mk V guy over the VI, but always have loved the VI as well, escpetially Reaches prototype variant with the extra armor attachment!
For chief I generally prefer h2 anniversarys design for the mk 6. But there are some h4 aspects I prefer. like the lack of a diaper, I really am glad it was omitted. I Also prefer the h4 gloves and under suit. I'm not sure if I prefer the halo 2 anniversary or halo 4 helmet but both are fantastic imho. Great vid!
You should do a version of the mark V, if memory serves it was also in every main halo game besides 2
I might have something in the works... Keep an eye out!
@@Wernissage Love it, Cant wait to see whats next.
We will watch your career with great interest!
My personal favorite armor was the mark 4 from Halo Wars 2. It’s in my opinion the best combo of old and new and looks hella cool.
you know what i can live without seeing outlines on the helmet . Well my fav is mark V delta
never noticed how much i missed the black brim
Fantastic! I instantly felt a your love of halo bleed through in this video, you did a great job. It's inspiring to see another great halo TH-camr pop up, keep at it man
Thank you!✌️
That's what is missing in the halo's documentary the eyes part blew me away i wish they talked more about those little details
The nostalgic affect and stunning quality and character is amazing!
Germany 1938 Thank you! :)
@@Wernissage you're very welcome and I look forward to see more content. Perhaps the evolution of the elites or Cortana?
In terms of the more final Infinite helmet, the actual bottom curve of the visor matches Halo 2 more than 3, which had a flatter curve.
MadmanLava Good point!
Great video and overall collection of content. Will say I had some issues clearly hearing you, other than that 10/10
Thank you! Yeah that's definitely something I'll keep in mind in my upcoming videos. Appreciate it!
Great vid. Love your artwork, would love to see more vids.
Thank you! I'll get to work then :)
I feel like you could explain a bit more into the helmet. You did explain a lot for the halo 1 to reach especially the one with the tears, did not know that, so, that was cool, but it did feel like you stopped with the halo 4 to 5 designs, so, I hope you can discuss the thing people like and dislike about them because it did come off like you did not care to explain.
Anyways neat video I hope you improve more!
Fair enough, I'll keep that in mind! I'd love to revisit those helmets, maybe a video in defense of Chief's 4/5 armor? Thanks for the tip, appreciate it!
@@Wernissage no offense intended as I said before you really did give good insight in the desgin and how it was used but i did not think you gave that same level to halo 4-5 like one thing I saw was that you pointed out is those lights where on then off. That could be a subtle way on how the Chief feels.
Thank you for responding I hope you will only improve in your content and be a good influence in the community.
@@Knight1029 Hey you're good at this! Thanks for pointing that out. I'll try my best:)
@@Wernissage :)
Hey man you just earned a sub, keep pumping this content out, it is definitely underrated! Good job man!
Thank you so much! Appreciate it man!
Wernissage - The Art of Halo
Thank i00 he turned me on to you!! Great channel so far
This man makes good artwork and good commentary videos
Haha thank you!
There was no way 343 would mess up their next project, right?
Immediately plays Heavy Price Paid from Halo 2 8:16
I genuinely liked the changes to his armor throughout the showing that with humanity getting better with technology so did the armor of the Spartans. Like material in between the armor pieces vs the just basic armor and that generic black in between. Loved it but like the progression more. Hurt a bit to see it take a step backwards but after watching the campaign for infinite and seeing what happened between 5 and now its a bit easier to justify story wise rather than just a design change back to the original. As for in multiplayer it’s a lil harder to explain. Should keep the gen 2 styling but bring back reach’s ability to style your spartan as either built like a tank and meant to stand on the frontlines or like a sport bike meant for agility and quickness to drop in and out of areas or targets quickly. I get chief usually opts for the basic armor but he’s also been that no frills kinda spartan
Loved it! Great job!
Thank you!!
Mark VI I think got the better end of the deal over Mark V, with a somewhat faithful version appearing in some form. One thing I think worth noting about 4's reception is that unlike Halo 2, there's no explanation as to how Chief obtained a new set of armor aside from one throw away line from Franky which boil down to "nano machines, son!" I think if they had a scene where Chief suits up in the new armor, the overall reception would've been better. That said I'm glad we more or less got the classic design back!
My fav was def the 2018 infinite perfect blend vs the blocky chunky new style but both are beautiful just my preference
The Mark VI (HALO 3 version) has always been my favorite of Master Chief's armor. Its why when HALO Infinite came out, my first objective was..how close can I recreate the Master Chief Mark VI armor from HALO 3. If you look at my recent community post on my channel, I posted a screenshot of my amor currently. Its about 90% accurate for it being a replica. Thank you for making this video. 😁🎮
For me, I really didn't mind the Halo 4 version if the MK VI. Now, I did start playing Halo around Reach era, but I felt the MK VI from 4 was trying to keep some parts that made the MK VI beautiful. Seeing him in that darker olive drab was also noice. Of course, my list is pretty much yours, but move Scarred up to where Reach is, move the 5 to where Scarred was, move Reach to where Halo 4 MP was, and 4 MP to 5s location, and its good
As a halo fan as an artist, your channel it's really good my friend. Great videos.
Thanks!:)
NEver realized that the 2018 reveal changed from the current one
My favorite Mark VI helmet is the Mark V
Can you design the master chiefs face? What’s he look like to you with his helmet off? I can see him in my head confidently but at the same time, it’s like trying to draw someone you saw in a dream.
Your content is well edited and thought out, definitely subbing.
Thank you!
