The fact you aren't currently an art director for the next Halo game is criminal. You understand the design language so well and it's incredible how much your skills improve from video-to-video.
I think a fun concept for a video would be to halo-ify the character designs from the various "halo killer" games that tried and failed to supplant halo
Interesting idea: Halo-fying Gundam. Gundam inspired some of the design language of Halo, so what if we flipped that, and used Halo design language on Gundam designs? I think some of the mechs would look badass as Spartans, especially the GM Sniper 2, Jesta, and Zaku 2
@@Hakumai_o7 it is rumored the gm spartan inspired master chief himself as it was created before halo came out. While a unlikely maybe the initial hunter designs were inspired off of the Hy-gogg. So maybe
These armors should be added into MCC and fall under the “classic filter” so they can’t be removed with that customization filter. They are perfect for the art style.
Dude. Subbed. How the heck are you not an official art dev for Halo Studios? You know the art style, the original designs, the way everything comes together with a fine-woven symmetry correlating into one awesome piece of artwork. Like dawg I’m in awe no joke. This is like a smile to the bungie-era. If I start a business and need an artist, you’re one of my first picks. Keep up the good work 🤟 (Ps. Zephyr was my fav 🎉)
Dude, you are by far one of my all-time favorite Halo artists. Your style really brings a lot of love and attention and omage back to the old school styles of Bungie while still keeping up with the newer flashier trends. Fantastic work as always my man!
This was awesome! Seeing armors not just good in their own roght, but also fans of other media using Halo like Red vs. Blue was really nice. Seeing the helmets of characters like CT, Meta, Carolina, Caboose, Florida, and other characters that use helmets other than the MK6 had me reeling from the waves of nostalgia.
Rogue!!!!!! Favorite helmet and attachments! And I think you did the best “makeover” for the Scout. Both these helmets look badass with all the attachments together.
14:39 This would be my favorite helmet in any Halo game. That looks so freaking cool. I’m legitimately surprised we don’t have helmet “ears” on Spartans. Like the ones you would find on Chappie.
Another banger my friend 😎 flavor text is a mind blowing feature of current era Wern. Full-attachment Rogue dropped my jaw. Antennae! So did final ODST, omg!! The idea to take the visor down to eye line only was *chefskiss*. Could not contain myself in anticipation of the Isaac pieces. My two favorite Halo armor artists. Tribune possibly my new favorite design?? Same reason I like the early Centurion concept I suppose :) AERO predecessor to Soldier from H4/H5? Probably so.
Aww baby❤️ LoreKeeper is killing it with the flavor texts. Tribune goes incredibly hard indeed, it was truly an honor to work off of Isaac’s work. And yeah, AERO did end up being used to create some GEN2 advancements aboard ANVIL station, I wonder what helmet that resultet in…👀
Hey, just wanted to say I saw you change the title for the smear game type to Smear Da Q Non. Thanks for taking the extra little bit of effort to not alienate your audience.
That fully upgraded ODST helmet is beautiful. Now that I think about it there's hints of the base Helldiver armor in there with that narrow visor. While I'm on the subject, I think taking Helldiver Armor and bringing it into Halo would be an excellent idea. I think in particular, you should do the B-01 Tactical (the default armor), the CE-27 Groundbreaker (my absolute favorite), and the TR-117 Alpha Commander (you already know).
It's criminal that people like him who understand and are passionate about the art and aesthetic design of Halo aren't the ones in charge of its design. But that's also why, because they're passionate and passion means they won't capitulate and bend to the whims of bullheaded suits and ignorant studio leadership.
Dude, you made the rogue helmet look better than it did in halo 3 imo, honestly, you made all of them look great, but the rogue helmet is my favorite from the bunch.
I've always loved the lore behind Anvil Station and how there's a joint training base between Spartans and Sangheili. I'm curious how would you tackle practical/lore based hybrid armor/weapons? For example, a Sangheili Ranger wearing armor designed by humans. Or, a plasma weapon attachment mounted under the barrel of a Battle Rifle allowing the user to strip an enemy shield and then headshot them right after. How would a Sangheili design a weapon based around physical bullets to take advantage of Human suppressors for a new level of stealth?
The Zephyr is my favourite! Classic yet new looks. Really like the Rogue remake with the attachments too. Could you Halofy Helldivers eventually? You've got plenty of choices, even with weapons!
Dude I love this customisation, this is what Halo Customisation should be about fewer helmets, more ways to make the existing helmets unique and have more ways to express yourself
One of my favorite pieces of lore is that EOD armour was created in response to an unacceptable amount of spartan decapitations by energy swords. Its design to reduce spartan decapitations to acceptable levels
I love the rogue helmet, it was my favourite. I miss it so much. Nothing else since has hit as hard to me. I do like the Commando helmet from halo reach specifically the UA/FC-I one. That felt close to the rogue helmet, but I'd just want the original rogue helmet back.
Always love your work, but the recon mods have me confused when you combined. The thing that looks like flip-down optics would not be functional with the brim visor in the way.
I wish you were in charge of the armor design for the new Halo games …although Halo Infinite is a massive improvement from 4 and 5, I think they could still use some help from your design. I like that you created attachments that are aesthetically pleasing and streamline to the helmet (rather than just attaching random things that look bulky and change the flow of the helmet design).
Seriously, the H3 Rogue is such an awesome helmet, tied for my favorite of the series with the Mark 7 helm. Hate that it was turned into an EVA knockoff in H4/5.
This would make for a great little permanent battle pass halo infinite style for halo MCC id happily pay £5 roughly $6.28 for something like that! Would be great to get the population up again.
I always loved the CQB helmet; I just also always wished the helmet itself was a little.. smaller? The design was fantastic, but the proportions always felt weird somehow
I am still not a fan of Halo 3's recon helmet compared to Reach's version. However you've done a great job with scout and rogue, Which were my two favourite helmets in 3.
Would love to see you Halofy Warhammer 40K. I want to see what all Astartes armor would look like if it was made in Halo. like from The Mark I Thunder Armor all the way to the Mark X Tacticus Armor.
I'm acutally glad Wernissage doesn't work at 343 design department cause I don't know if I would have resisted the urge to get the Aero or Cerberus helmets if they came in Infinite's shop
Could be cool to just enhance the fighter pilot look of the Security helmet and give it the same sort of muzzle that the modern ones have with pipes and everything.
I think you could have gone with a demon mouth attachment like some of the Samurai armor that Infinite has. Having cloth there just looks like a surgical mask tossed over 😅 10:05
Honestly the Concept Art renditions are amazing. You did a better job of creating/transitioning Helmets that LOOK LIKE Halo Helmets. There's a style that was missing in Halo 4 and 5 and half of Infinite. These LOOK like Halo permutations. The originals also look really good in HD, I wish they would bring them in but that's likely to never happen because look how long it's taken to get the majority of the Reach Helmets.
Thank you! Yeah I don’t think they can create that many new assets for Infinite unfortunately, but it would be amazing. I’d sure as heck be broke if they did it
When are you Haloifying fish
Could you do haloifying birds?
Why not both
Forget about that, when halofying Halo 3 Rat?
Yes
How about a toaster.
The fact you aren't currently an art director for the next Halo game is criminal. You understand the design language so well and it's incredible how much your skills improve from video-to-video.
Too kind, thank you!!
“Nintendo hire this man!” Ahh comment 💀
An art director is crazy lmao. Maybe a concept artist would be more fitting
I bet you he would be miserable at 343 given how they treat the franchise.
@@MrAutistik better than Bungie ever did lol
Would love to see you Halofy Mass Effect
That would be badass!
would love to!
yes
I am commander shephard and this is my favorite channel on the citadel@@Wernissage
@@lilrolls8928 👌
I think an attachment to make the Scout's jawline closer to its Halo 3 counterpart would have been a good compromise between faithfulness and update.
Agreed, I'm not a big fan of the gaps on the chin area. All the attachments I feel would look better if the helmet was closed up like the original.
You should Halofy some Helldivers armor
Didn't you see the third ODST variant? XD
@@luwicki97He even said HELLJUMPERS! lol
@@lilrolls8928 He did, yes. That's what they're called.

That would be ironic.
That would be an interesting video I'd be down for
Turns out the true Halo killer were the 343i games. But that's a dead horse we've beaten into nothing but a smear on the concrete.
This^^^^^^^

The video isn't even live yet and can tell you it's a banger. Fire work as usual Wern.
That actually makes the helmet look completely different but in a really cool way. 13:53
Absolutely incredible work!
Those cut helmets are fantastic, both the original art and your interpretation!
These armors should be added into MCC and fall under the “classic filter” so they can’t be removed with that customization filter. They are perfect for the art style.

Legendary as always. Well worth the wait
Man Halo 3's designs are peak and have not been topped. The Eva especially. Beautiful modern makeovers
I absolutely love the EOD helm
Reach Scout and Security are better
Rogue has been my favourite helmet for YEARS. With the little ear/wing scanners, I'd buy it in a HEARTBEAT.
I need that in Infinite now, fr.
Dude, you are by far one of my all-time favorite Halo artists. Your style really brings a lot of love and attention and omage back to the old school styles of Bungie while still keeping up with the newer flashier trends. Fantastic work as always my man!

As always banger video. I gotta say some of the attachments for EOD and Rogue made them look so good
Really loving the new Rogue attachments, as well as Zephyr and Tribune
So that’s how you pronounce Beweglichkeitsrüstungsysteme. Awesome work as always.
Thank you so much Wernissage for letting me write some music for this video!!
as a longtime enjoyer of the Scout helmet from the moment I unlocked it back in 2008, I fully approve of your updated interpretation. Well done!
Rogue!!!!!! Favorite helmet and attachments! And I think you did the best “makeover” for the Scout. Both these helmets look badass with all the attachments together.
It's always a pleasure to watch these and see what you cane up with. I never loved Halo 3s Helmet choices but you really did them justice here 🧡
you're pleasing my eyes with these amazing designs
14:39 This would be my favorite helmet in any Halo game. That looks so freaking cool. I’m legitimately surprised we don’t have helmet “ears” on Spartans. Like the ones you would find on Chappie.
we do actually in infinite, a couple helmets have antennae
Please keep making these. They are amazing, great job!
Thank you!!
Rogue has always been my favorite. Thanks for doing it justice!
I can't wait to see more from you. Your designs are awesome
One of the best videos I’ve seen man great job

But that's also why, because they're passionate and passion means they won't capitulate and bend to the whims of bullheaded suits and ignorant studio leadership.
I’d love to see more weapon redesigns/new weapons.
That Zephyr helmet is mint! I want it in game sooooo much
God, I miss halo 3's eva design. Your redesign makes me hope we'll see it back some day in another game.
Reminds me of Linda’s helmet in Halo 5 7:11
Dude, you made the rogue helmet look better than it did in halo 3 imo, honestly, you made all of them look great, but the rogue helmet is my favorite from the bunch.
AERO's source concept is _very_ evocative of the design language of the Soldier helmet from H4/5/Infinite.
As a Scout user, that redesign is just… perfect
Damn man, do you ever miss? Thus far... Nope. Not a bit. Keep on with the awesome work!
This is such a class idea. Something they should of done for MCC or even have a Halo 3 season on Infinite with all these attachments

God damn Halo 3 still looks fantastic.
I swear to God… Halo Studios just need to hire you. Both of you.
Halo Studios needs to hire you ASAP!! You should do some SPI armor designs next!
Haloifying iron man armor. Or turn halo infinite armor into halo 3 armor
The Zephyr is my favourite! Classic yet new looks. Really like the Rogue remake with the attachments too.
Could you Halofy Helldivers eventually? You've got plenty of choices, even with weapons!
Superman trailer and a Wernissage video. I’m eating good tonight.
Dude I love this customisation, this is what Halo Customisation should be about

Thank you! Agreed🫡
One of my favorite pieces of lore is that EOD armour was created in response to an unacceptable amount of spartan decapitations by energy swords. Its design to reduce spartan decapitations to acceptable levels
I really dug the new interpretation of Scout. Just felt more in line with the rest of Halo 3's aesthetic
I love the rogue helmet, it was my favourite. I miss it so much. Nothing else since has hit as hard to me. I do like the Commando helmet from halo reach specifically the UA/FC-I one. That felt close to the rogue helmet, but I'd just want the original rogue helmet back.
I would love to see you work with some of the modders for MCC and bring some of your creations to life
Your pronunciation of Beweglichkeitsrüstingsysteme was really good
No way hahaha! I had to stitch together like five different takes just to get it right
I'd love to see you Halofy other properties, like imagine Dead space if it was created with halos aesthetic.. or the other way around.
Always love your work, but the recon mods have me confused when you combined. The thing that looks like flip-down optics would not be functional with the brim visor in the way.
While not everything Wernissage does is 10/10 perfection, every time i watch one of his videos i think that he should be on the design team for 343
- “The base mark VI un halo 3 can’t be topped”
- Me looking at halo 3 ODST armor
Somehow halo studios should add this stuff, is just so good
I would really like to see you halo-ify Metroid armor, like the "light scout" armor of Samus, and federation trooper armor.
I wish you were in charge of the armor design for the new Halo games …although Halo Infinite is a massive improvement from 4 and 5, I think they could still use some help from your design.

Seriously, the H3 Rogue is such an awesome helmet, tied for my favorite of the series with the Mark 7 helm. Hate that it was turned into an EVA knockoff in H4/5.
What next? Halofying the Helghast?
Also, I got two words for that Scout Helmet redesign Shot Trap.
So next would be the elites or the rest of the spartan armor pieces right?
It's hard to say witch one is the best I loved them all, but I have to go with the EVA helmet I really liked that one
This would make for a great little permanent battle pass halo infinite style for halo MCC id happily pay £5 roughly $6.28 for something like that! Would be great to get the population up again.
I always loved the CQB helmet; I just also always wished the helmet itself was a little.. smaller? The design was fantastic, but the proportions always felt weird somehow
Perition to get Wernissage a contract with Halo Studios art department
Here's an idea: take a look at historical suits of plate armor and Haloify those.
If Dewrito hadn't died again I would have absolutely love to see someone attempt to mod some of these new attachments into there
I know this would be a weird take, but Haloify Dark Souls 1-3 helmets. The vibe is there on MCC with the Blackguard armor, but it isn't Dark Souls.
This guy just gets it
The aero helmet gives me 343 soldier helmet design vibe
I am still not a fan of Halo 3's recon helmet compared to Reach's version. However you've done a great job with scout and rogue, Which were my two favourite helmets in 3.
I absolutely love all of them. I definitely love recon but moreso how the attachments just make new helmets like HELOO?
Would love to see you Halofy Warhammer 40K. I want to see what all Astartes armor would look like if it was made in Halo. like from The Mark I Thunder Armor all the way to the Mark X Tacticus Armor.

Honestly I would love to see you Halofiy the Mobile Suits from Mobile Suit Gundam Universal Century into Spartan armor
Get this man to Halo Studios STAT! We need these armors in infinite!!!
I want to see Spartan armor with pouches or load bearing equipment
Could be cool to just enhance the fighter pilot look of the Security helmet and give it the same sort of muzzle that the modern ones have with pipes and everything.
I like the odst helmet for me it looks bad ass.
I think you could have gone with a demon mouth attachment like some of the Samurai armor that Infinite has. Having cloth there just looks like a surgical mask tossed over 😅

The AERO could be written as a predecessor of the Hayabusa helmet. Looks like it without the stylistic additions.
Good point, I didn’t think of that!
Haloifying Halo
It's not fair, I want AERO and Tribune, they're beautifull 😄
2:44 my only gripe with the H3 EOD design are the eyes...
