Dress like Master Chief – Steampunk style!

By Terence Huynh on June 22nd, 2010

Guess what! Now you can dress like Master Chief like it was 1850. Remember that? The Victorian era? Oh wait, we weren’t born yet.

Done by an artist called Christophe, he created a steampunk version of the helmet wore by the spartans on Halo using only four layers of acrylic paint to give it a brushed metal feel and PVC piping to create the, lack for any other words, pipe.

For the uninitiated, steampunk is just an genre of fiction that is based on the Victorian era of Britain, using a lot of machinery. But why take my answer, when you can have Wikipedia’s answer instead.

Christophe is no stranger to this type of work. He has created a steampunk version of an Xbox 360 – which looks bloody brilliant – and a steampunk rose.

Doesn’t it look so god damn good? Bet you want to get your hands on it, do you? Well, it isn’t for sale, sadly. Shame. Though, you can just always stare at it.

If you want to see more images of the Halo helmet, then go to his profile on DeviantArt.
