Redesigning UNSC Weapons | Blending Bungie's Art Style with 343's
Vložit

- I've always wondered what a perfect blend of the two art styles would look like. In this video I will try to answer that question by making my own designs of the UNSC weapons. A bit of the old art style, and a bit of the new.

The redesign of the SAW was excellent
Agreed
I agree
yep 100%, I would say this is something that I could see all these weapons perfectly fitting in Halo Infinite.
Thanks Taras!
I would've added the triple Barrels from the chaingun
“As for the Rocket Launcher, yeah just stick with an old SPNKR.”
Iconic
one does not replace the SPNKR
I C O N I C
@@electrohalo8798 I mean, the new rockets looks pretty nice. Maybe make it a one shot weapon with higher damage, but a smaller blast radius. Call it, the Javelin. Or, the Stinger.
@@Zynet_Eseled thing looks like a toy bazooka mixed with a John Deere Tractor
Alternative title: “Working for 343’s designers department”
I agree maybe he could make halo infinite weapons
Fans do better job than the actual devs, because fans have passion
Wait they have a design department??
@@sirramic202 idk maybe?
@@CBRN-115 True question, can 343 hires fans
The SAW AR merger is the biggest success I think. Would love that ingame.
Would be cool if the ar also had an ammo counter.
@@Tiemedie actually the devs have seen these and are using a fair bit inspiration from these designs
That's actually my least favorite
That weapon looks an awful lot like a machine gun from Destiny, but a drum mag instead of a belt.
“It wouldn’t be a halo game without the shotgun”
343: bulldog, take it or leave it
Because Halo has never had multiple weapons in a given archetype before, right?
@@thegrouchization He's saying that because 343 has said they're not having the typical shotgun we know at all nor the magnum in Infinite
@@btaddy390 Where have they stated this?
@@thegrouchization I know this is a week later but i wanted to make sure to be consistent. "There are additional variants of each of these, but the classic Magnum and Tactical Shotgun aren’t currently featured in Halo Infinite." -Halo Waypoint.

@@btaddy390
Im honestly fine with the Bulldog.
Drinking game: take a shot everytime I say ”elongated”.
two of my favorite weapons from the new games is the rail gun and the hydra do u think u could do those? although personally i already like there look but id like to see how u change it
I'll drink with a toast of H2O.
Would you let someone use these to try and model them?
@@Vorance of course! As long as they credit me, I’d love to see it!
The only one I have a HUGE PROBLEM WITH, my baby, The SAW, old fans screamed bcs 343 "change"(upgraded) the weapon designs and they weren't as they where originally, well that ppl where only thinking abt themselves since,(and many more who met halo via halo 4 & 5) I love 343 designs on everything, and rn infinite looks alright, I prefer halo 5 armor, and BR, but the saw, dont you change my SAW, its organic 343 production and I grew up on 343, you change my saw, then I'll leave halo, No one dare touch my baby.
A few corrections on the Magnum and the Shotgun -- The top "barrel" in Reach is actually the tube the shells get loaded into. Loading from the top instead of the bottom (like a traditional pump-action IRL) is why it's there. The one on the bottom is a tube for the pump to slide on, but can also double as a flashlight or laser mount.
The "Weight" on the magnums are actually either lasers or cameras. The laser doesn't make too much sense, but cameras do. The magnum can zoom 2x, so since the gun was originally thought of as an accurate handcannon type of gun, it would make sense for some sort of longer-range capabilities, without having a clunky scope on top. The camera would link directly to a Spartan or ODST's helmet.
I actually feel like a laser would make quite a lot of sense, considering the magnum would probably be used quite a bit in CQC, and lasers are much snappier and quicker to aim with than irons or a scope.
It's the scope you zoom with. Not lasers or cameras.
@@bengeorge9063 but that’s still a a camera as there is no physical scope yiu see through. What is caught int the 2x camera shows up in the helmet
Magnum from CE and ODST have only the smart link camera. 2 have nothing. 3 have a laser while Reach, 4 and 5 have both smart link and laser sights.
I always thought it was some sort of gas system and/or recoil mitigation device, because you shoot the shotgun with only 1 hand when you are in the warthog.
"it wouldn't be a halo game.. without the shotgun."
343: *sweats profusely*
Out of context, the 343 shotgun looks more like a doom weapon
Nah.
But put another 343 shotgun next to it doublebarrel style, and definitely.
Kinda
Funnily enough, 343's designs of Halo 4 and 5 fit more into the Doom series, mostly Doom 2016 cause it features the UAC locations more. You could put Halo 5 and Halo 4 into the Doom series and it would look extremely similar lol.
I never thought of it that way but now I see a lot of 343 weapons feel like they could be put in doom
I love the 343 shotgun. It feels like loading up a shot ready to blast an enemy to hell and back.
God I love the saw, I LOVE the saw, that looks like it BELONGS IN A Helljumpers hands
Thank you! Glad to hear that✌️
The only thing I didn't like about the saw, was the fact he removed the top part. I'd miss those lines telling me how much ammo I have
@@relt745 Could slap a halo reach AR ammo counter on the rails. Wonder how that would look.
It's made me realize how uncomfortable the official SAW looks to hold
@@dignusdingus3709 same for the sniper, why is the stock so close to the trigger?
343: *looks at Battle Rifle* “Quick write that down!
On the Halo shotgun the top "barrel" on the shotgun is the magazine tube, the middle one is the actual barrel, and the bottom is a flashlight. You can see in Reach how the magazine tube on top has a sling attachment point on the end cap. 3 and Reach make things confusing by adding an additional flashlight to the side for some reason.
might be red laser or IR lasers
At least in Reach the sida attachment is a laser, you know, for fast hip aiming in cqc
I always thought the third/bottom rod was to guide the pump.
@@phoenixraider42 that's what I thought too, since it was a tactical shotgun, all the shotguns always had the in built flashlight, just that there was no laser so Reach had the flash shifted to the side with the laser at the bottom
In case your batteries die
Honestly the best designs I’ve seen. If only these were the ones we got for Infinite.
Babe
@@fkdaybreak3626 not saying the ones we got are bad, I just really like the aesthetic of these ones.
FKDaybreak basically saying the halo infinite BR is GOOD but tbh this design was a lot better coming from a halo Zealot.
Halo infinite br looks amazing
There returning "most" of the classic designs
If anybody watching this makes 3d models, please make these. Bonus points if they are 3d printed
👆This👆
Following
will (maybe) try
I'm only novice-intermediate though. Still can't quite wrap my head around UV's
You mean 3D Printable?
@@narenthebeesechurgerman422 no, printed
Everything about the Unsc feels so futuristic but at the same time so human.
As it should
But also really dumb if you think about some weapon design choices.. bullpup weapons are notoriously know for being bad and inaccurate... horrible trigger system that is over complicated compared to traditional rifles.. BUT they are really cool to look at I won't lie
@@quinn8599 “bullpup weapons are notorious for being bad and inaccurate”
Lmao that’s completely false
@@noneed4sleep64 uh no, it's a legit known fact they are more inaccurate then conventional and their trigger systems are absolute fucking DOGWATER
@@quinn8599 the longer the barrel, the better the accuracy, and the whole point of bullpups is a rifle length barrel in an smg/carbine length gun. Also, electronic triggers already exist, seems pretty obvious that most, if not all UNSC guns would have them, especially the bullpups
Really incredible designs. They have the ruggedness as seen in Bungie's own designs, while maintaining the level of detail and streamlining of 343's own designs. Truly amazing.
These designs are just, mwuah, chef’s kiss. As someone who admittedly has a bias towards the Bungie style, these designs are super creative and I love how well they marry the iconography of Halo 1-Reach with the detail of 4&5. I hope that Infinite’s yet unseen weapons take a similar aesthetic approach. Very well done.
Thank you!
Everything was ok till he touched my SAW, it was perfect just how it was, I dont want the SAW changed
@@Wernissage I'm surpised that 343 hasn't hired you to help them design Halo Infinite's weapons, cause these are AWESOME looking.
@@emile-a2394 the saw is the only 343 weapon I like personally, but if I could change it I would just make it more black. But yeah that thing tears through enemies
@@emile-a2394 dude the saw just straight up looked like a promethian weapon, especially since its color scheme was not UNSC, on top of that. Adding the saw into halo just made the assault rifle redundant, cus why would i ever pick up an assault rifle when i could pick up a saw instead which did the same thing but just better
I really like how you add tiny led lights to them most. Im a big fan of them. When they appear in most guns in H3. I love it alot. I think the br flash muzzle is part of its iconic design. When fired, it got that upsized down three pointed star. Overall great work!
Thanks! I really like the green lights as well lol. And yeah definitely!
@@Wernissage someone needs to show 343 these designs and have u work on more of them. I love these designs. So cool, smooth and calm. If they don't make the campaign then make it into the multiplayer.
It would be very cool to see your redesign of the vehicles, armor and Covenant. Just a thought for ideas.
I believe the weight on the magnum is actually the Smart-Link scope, hence why in Halo 2 you can’t zoom in.
These redesigns are ok but the saw, now that I like!
Thank you!
@@Wernissage No problem
Agreed I was shook on how good it was
The Saw turned out great so I'd like to see a video where you redesign original 343 weapons to fit the Bungie aesthetic
Same. The saw actually looks more halo now
@@unrulybot1352 I thought I saw looked perfect already so it was a pretty good redesign
@@argo9721 well personally, I don't like how the current saw is so white. I prefer to have some black parts to it
@@unrulybot1352 yeah I can see that they were obviously trying to make a fit with the “new” UNSC ecstatic
1:40 "The Battle Rifle"
3:35 "The Sniper Rifle"
6:16 "The Saw"
8:50 "The Shotgun"
12:20 "The Magnum"
As someone who loves both classic Bungie and modern 343 art styles. This is pretty flippin cool
Love the video, but you must know that all the shotguns have one barrel. Pump shotguns have what's called a tube, which acts as a built in magazine, below the barrel. Reach's "third barrel" is also likely a flashlight.
I wish we could’ve used it, I bet that’s what it is as well. At first I thought maybe they staggered the tubes somehow for extra capacity but yeah..
@@troopergames8173 Huh, I never thought of that. That's actually a really neat idea.
@@troopergames8173 ehh I won't take it as extra capacity, considering the ammo count is 6 shells
Flashlight was shifted to the side, if you rmb Halo 1 had the volumetric light displayed to show the shotgun had a flashlight
Reach had it shifted, the 3rd barrel should most likely be a laser sight, since they went with the tactical look, and although Reach had Spartan IIIs deployed all around, there were alot of marines as well, so it had to be accessible especially since Reach is mostly experimental weapon test site, so they would have to work with times where the guns arent linked to their optical camera
Or with a factor in mind that the optical cam on their helmet malfunction
Actually I suspect the bottom one is actually a flashlight and the top ones the tube based
Dude I literally love the designs so much! As a fan of both Bungie Era and 343 Era designs, I loved seeing all these weapons come to life! You definitely deserve more subs dude
Thank you!
Dear god these are phenomenal. The level of detail in these designs without overcomplicating them is astounding. I was waiting for the magnum design, and I was not disappointed. Looking forward to more of these if you make them, especially if you make a needler redesign
U got the magic touch man, I'm amazed when I found myself liking (loving) your SAW design even though I didn't thought it needed a re design
The saw recreation is my favourite, if it was added I think it would become and instant classic like the shotgun and Battle rifle.
Thank you!
The BR really reminded me of the CE, 3 and 4 Assault Rifle
hey your from that lego stopmotion server
@@tanmaykokkula6211 hol' up. What?
@@aquajus Sorry, I meant to say *you're
Huh? The br remind you of the AR?.....
@@bombomos yeah, his design of the BR
This is incredible, dude! Extremely detailed analysis of 343's, Bungie's and your own fusion. Incredible models. Amazing editing as well! Excited to see your future content.
Really enjoyed seeing your design of making the bungie and 343 designs merged and really like how everything looked
Can't wait to see more
2:42 Battle Rifle (BR55)
5:01 Sniper Rifle Series (SRS99)
7:31 Light Machine Gun ( SAW, BR55, MA5C, M247)
11:05 Shotgun (M45,M90)
wrote this down so i can think about it in blender
How does this guy not have tons of subscribers??? These videos are so well made and should be watched by all Halo fans.
Thank you!
@@Wernissage Of course!
Hell yeah
I’m not sold on the Br and magnum, as I feel like they’re missing some of the key geometries that made them stand out originally, but that saw is extremely well done and carries out some really clear lines throughout the design. Really well done!
The only critique Id recommend is curving the handle of the BR, and extending the body of the magnum out past the aiming module like in the Halo 3 model. Well done!
When a random halo fan does a better job than a whole company. Much love and appreciation.
Liking the new series!
Good to hear, thanks!
That SAW is just amazing, you got a new sub
Facts
Thank you!
@@Wernissage man, don't stop doing these top quality videos
You've got my support even if it's as little as one person behind you
Please make a second video on the Assault Rifle, SMG, DMR and Rocket Launcher.
;)
:O
Idk if the assault rifle will change much same with the rocket launcher (i dont know if i wanna see a merged halo 5 rocket launcher with the bungie rocket launcher)
I always loved using the saw in 4 and 5. Your design of the saw here is beyond amazing.
Holy shit. This is beyond amazing. Everything you made is a perfect blend of Bungie and 343. Really good job dude.
Wow, thank you!
i just want to strap 343 artists into a chair and force them to watch Aliens on repeat for 24 hours and then make them design everything
I’ll help
are you ok?
@@livelyilyaas5563 oh hes fine
@@xxdarthpredatorxx8901 Awesome, I’ll get the popcorn
I love all of these so much! Thank you for all the work you did here! I think the shotgun would have to be my favorite, honestly! What they did with the shotgun in 4 and 5 was irredeemable in my eyes. They looked nothing like the OG shotguns, but your rework managed to salvage their mess and turn it into something quite recognizable! Amazing work!
OUTSTANDING!!! Absolutely fantastic!! This is how it's done!! Love everything about this great job dude!
I would love to see more of the UNSC weapons and if possible, the covenant ones as well,
Came back to this video after I saw the new gun screenshots they released today and your design is pretty close to what they're doing for Infinite, nice work!
Love the shotgun redesign. It left me wondering, would you consider including the first-person views of the weapons in your redesigns? I would love to see how the shotgun looks from that angle.
Adding a comment to help boost the metrics :) But seriously Wernissage, these are quite tastefully done and faithful blendings of two distinct art styles in the franchise. I think you've really captured the essence of what makes these art styles unique, and executed the merge in a way, that makes these guns look like theyre part of a halo game. I can see someone modding these in as asset replacements in the PC Halo MCC for games like reach and halo 4. Masterfully done lad!!!
People forget that Art Style and Design are not interchangeable terms
what exactly do you mean? that although 343 certainly has an art style, they lack good designs or something along those lines?
@@danteteeter6567 Not necessarily.
Design relates to the components that make up a piece of artwork. Such as the basic elements a weapon or vehicle has these have fundamentally changed for some weapons (BR, Sniper) but not so much for others (Assault Rifle, Concussion).
Many of the 343 designs are incredibly good such as Ranger Jackals and Grunts
Art style refers to other technicalities in the representation ej: amount of lighting, shading on the spartan armor.
Halo CE Anniversary doesn't change the designs on the weapons very much but it changes the art style significantly for example.
A change in design is the adding of the sight ontop of the plasma pistol. A change in art style is similar to what happened in the night levels that look much, much brighter
Glad I was recommended this
🤘
Your pfp is cursed lol
@@bruhmoment8732 haha free picture editor go brrrr
Your results for both of your videos have me exclaiming aloud about how impressing they are because theyre so good
Thank you!
The channel has blown up a bit because of this video, which makes me very happy, you deserve the recognition
That BR is freaking perfect, holy shit.
I quite like the original design of the SAW and was thinking, “how could you improve it”?
But oh my god your design is beautiful
Haha thank you!
Man!! Asides from the awesome redesings you did, your video is also really well done, with a perfect soundtrack at the perfect time.
These are really good designs that I think absolutely combine the designs. A lot of people complain about the redesigns without actually making any solutions so your work was a good mindset.
BR is my favorite. It just screams iconic to me. I can easily see it being used by Spartans.
That battle rifle...wow that looks incredible!
All of these designs should be skins in Halo Infinite.
The battle rifle looks like it can easily match halo reach art style.
No. All these designs weren't good, with the exception of the sniper.
The battle rifle needs to stay classic, like Halo 3, but with a more advanced tone too it, no drastic changes.
As a Halo fan and a small CZcamsr, I absolutely love your channel so far. After I found this one, I binged the rest of it and I think you'll be pretty big if this keeps coming. Looking forward to more content in the future :)
So glad I was recommended this, absolutely well done. I rarely choose to use human weapons unless in forced gametypes, but the designs and details here are excellent; I barely had any complaints with 343'd or Bungie's designs with any of the weapons so I definitely see this as the best and smartest way to make everybody (especially those that want new but whine it's not old) happy and wanting more. Definitely would love to see a Covenant video of Fuel Rod Guns from 2/3 mixed with Reach/4 and Beam Rifle 2/3 with 4.
I loved the designs, these are great. How do you not have more subs?! Hopefully you blow up from this!
Thank you!
The Reach shotgun's "3rd barrel" is the magazine tube's endcap
The under “barrel” might just be the guide rod for the forend, but yeah if it’s the one on top your right
I love the saw and magnum designs you came up with! Definitely great call back to classic Halo and mixed with 343i divergence. I was really skeptical of what you would come up with for the magnum as I am a person who LOVES the Halo 5 design but damn you blew me away. Mad props to you.
Wow! Great video, really enjoyed it. Love the chill atmosphere. Got yourself a new subscriber! 🥳 Can't wait for the next part!
It’s beautiful man, we need to get this to go viral. That magnum
Why are fans better at blending the art styles than 343? That saw was incredible
Hahah thanks!
What do you mean? They’ve been doing a pretty good job so far with infinite
@@argo9721 The magnum is a bit Halo 2ish
But I don't mind that
Fantastic job! Your designs are intelligent, thoughtful, and well executed!
All of these designs are absolutely beautiful, great job perfecting each one
Give this man more subs! He deserves it!!!
🤘
I like how the 343’s H5 magnum just looks like “what if we were a group of college film students with an airsoft SiG trying to make a Magnum Prop”
Nah man, save that for the side kick pistol, yeah that's the name.
Dude, this video and the other one rock! I love your designs!
Great designs! Love the Sniper, SAW, and Magnum especially.Well done!
Imagine if 343 had anyone on their art team with this much respect for the series
Could you do the heavy weapons, like the rocket launcher and Spartan laser? I feel like the launcher has become too generic, and the laser too visually noisy. Or what about the Covenant weapons? They could do with your artistic touch.
Pleaaase do more, the designs and ideas you have are absolutely brilliant. You sir are a very talented and gifted man
One thing I have seen that I loved was a big grip guard on the battle rifle. Imagining that on your already phenomenal BR redesign is amazing to think about
Weight? On the magnum? The top block is a detachable smart-link scope, the bottom block is a detachable flashlight.
Oh okay, thanks for the correction! Like I said, not a gun expert, and I couldn’t figure out what its purpose was while making the video. Thanks for letting me know!:)
@@Wernissage you’re welcome! If you need any help with anything else, consult halopedia.
tbh i like the idea of it being a weight more, the magnum is so powerful that not even a spartan can control its recoil, so they had to stick a massive weight on top xD
You really know this stuff. Too bad nobody from 343 cares about us
Hire this man! Seriously every single one of these designs is an absolute banger, well done!
Very good artwork. It's not everyday I see someone work so hard to create something so appealing to the eye. Personally I think the curve on the end of the BR gives it the iconic flair; but you did a really good job. Great work :)
*343, HIRE THIS MAN.*
Going to do the Covenant weapons next? That'd be really cool to see.
HIRE THIS MAN
You did a really good job blending the styles and creating contrast with color. Inspiring stuff man!
For a relatively new channel, this video was very well executed! I think you should definitely do all UNSC, Covenant, and Forerunner weapons and vehicles. Great work!
Good work, I would recommend studying real world firearms technology. Ergonomics and engineering standards won't change much even far into the future as it's still humans using these tools of war.
Back from the live viewing, gotta say, all great designs, my favorites were the shotgun, and the magnum
Thank you!!
Your designs are so much better it really shows what their priorities really were
I'm so happy I stumbled across your channel. It's such a pleasant addition to my list of Halo youtubers i regularly watch. Looking forward to more vids!
These are amazing. Holy shit dude. Also 343: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN!
Imagine if the weapons in halo infinite looked like this
your designs are something I imagine too, I love it. It give's that iconic feel to it.
This all looks incredible, 343 hire this man :D
I miss the bulkier and simpler design of the top left part of the Magnum (as well as the little red light) but the Saw and the Shotgun look better than I ever could've dreamed. I always liked the Saw but you just gave it that "Halo" look it was lacking, and you managed to preserve the elements of the 343 Shotgun I really liked while returning it to a more grounded militaristic design. Thank you for taking the time to not only make beautiful designs but unite the two sides of the fandom to show that it really doesn't have to be just one art style or the other, there's a happy medium. Really hope you make more of these, even if they're all gonna make me sad I can't use them in Infinite lol
Assault rifle: exists.
Halo fan's: na man, assault rifle is not good.
"343 would never do this"
Why not the Infinite BR, Sniper, and AR look classic
@@korbinklawitter5796 Sword looks amazing too
These are absolutely amazing. Love that Magnum
Oh man the designs plus the music are kicking in nostalgia
343 better be hiring you after this
Out of all of the redesigns, the SAW was the only decent one.
Not only do these designs look better, they look more functionally possible
Well done indeed 💯
Wonderful work. Especially on the BR, SAW, and Shotgun. Truly looks like a best of all parts blend between versions.
