This could be the most glorious crocheted item I’ve ever seen. Found in the forums of video game crafting site Sprite Stich.
I know I promised, super-duper promised, pinky-swore in fact, that I wouldn’t post another Halo Helmet story… but I am, apparently, a big, fat liar.
I had to, just had to post this because MTV was calling us names, and I can’t let that go by without pointing my finger and mocking them. While I know Totilo’s post about how we “stole” their Halo helmet idea is a joke, I feel it necessary to point out that we actually were working on the idea first. And besides, it’s not my fault you couldn’t get your intern on the ball to make the helmet already!
To be fair, Totilo forced his poor intern to not only create a helmet with Krazy glue, assuring that she will spend Halloween in a glue-huffing haze, but he also made her document the 27-step process using a camera that actually focuses on things.
Oh and she removed the gold visor, something that obviously she realised she had to do by totally watching our tutorial.

I swear this is my last Halo Helmet post, and I don’t mean that in a I-swear-this-is-our-last-cake-post sort of way, for reals. I was mostly over the helmet after the last two posts, but this one, well it’s both functional and looks kick-ass. Someone finally gutted a helmet and then put in a gold-tinged visor so it was both functional and really neat looking. What do you think?
Legendary Helmet [High Impact Halo]
On Friday I posted the results of one of my flights of fancy, gutting out the Master Chief helmet that came with the Legendary edition of Halo 3 so I could wear it on my head. At the time I said that I thought that replacing the fake visor with a real one would ruin the effect. As much as I appreciate the hardwork this PBNation poster put into doing just that, I think I was right. You’re not meant to see the Master Chief’s eyes, you need that gold, reflective glass (or plastic) to really deliver the look.
