Hello good everyone,
So I been only learning 3D modelling for not long but something wanted to get into more. I love Halo series what got me into gaming and wanted to do something art related so decided to do 3D model of Grunt that is Flood.
So my process was getting reference that already had thanks to Halo 4 art book. Using artbook reference and also online was able to get idea of Grunt body and how looks.
Looking at reference I started with modelling of Grunt without armor as hard surfacing is hard but wanted to make Grunt as help in thinking about how Grunt would be turned into Flood. Now this my take on version of Flood Grunt and probably not accurate to Flood that we seen but I wanted to empower a grunt more as Flood but here are images of Grunt modeled.

So link above is images of the Grunt and link below is link of renders of Flood Grunt.

So looking at the images I wanted to carry Grunt attributes to Flood but that probably my exaggeration of how I do flood. I didn’t want Flood Grunt to hold weapon but do melee and make it more of heavy solider not so OP but one that doesn’t make Grunts so weak. I had right hand turn into melee type weapon and if you see on each arm as well scales that Grunts have have turned to more spike and this also on back was wanting it to pierce Grunts armor that I tried to do. I added mass where I thought fits and left it to retain silhouette of Grunt and this where that big bulb on back comes in, as you got Grunts that blow themselves up I wanted this Flood to uses gases from tank that Grunt breaths and turn it into something that it use against it’s enemies.
This my take on Flood version of Grunt but let me know what you think like what you think flood grunt be like or you agree want to hear what you think but was lot fun and again wanted to post something Halo related on forums that I could 3D model. Enjoy.
P.s if was meant to post images on here not OneDrive don’t know how!
