Here.

Is this the closest you can get ?
(Forget about the emblem)

No this is not the closet. That is on your left.

I would have said that the SIII's helmet was closer to the Pilot helmet.

And their shoulders are closer to being ODST.

Concidering this is the only official image of a SIII (other than Noble), its not much to go off.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

- EVA/Pilot helmet
- ODST shoulders
- HP Parafoil chest
- Gold visor
- FJ/PARA knees

*Sigh* You mean SPI armor, not a Spartan III.

Oh, and that's Kurt on the cover of Ghosts of Onyx, not a S3.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I would say that the SPI armor has a security helmet. But that's just what I think, unless there is some official source that I'm unaware of...

They are slightly similar, however SPI has a slightly more bulbous visor than the Security variant (which is wider). EVA is too bulbous though, but it would look more akin to SPI if it didn't have that retarded little hook thing on the mouthpiece.

I feel like the H3 Security helmet was closer in appearance to it.

Stupid ass washing machine...

EVA/Pilot/Security hlemet (it's really your call)
ODST shoulders
Base Security chest (take a look, it's like the legionnaire-style chest piece on SPI. Just ignore the grenades or pretend your S-III strapped them on...)
GUNGIR knees
Bracer wrist
Gold visor

I would suggest Base Security shoulders.

They don't have the obvious affiliation to ODSTs and they look good and are functional.


Those too. The shoulders generally have to curve upwards to meet the collar.

I was in a rush when I posted and I have to re-read the books, so sorry if I'm off.

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

It's Kurt, a Spartan-II.

Kurt, the Spartan-II in charge of training the S-IIIs. He chose not to wear his MJOLNIR armour because he felt he was one of the S-IIIs and not wearing the SPI armour would separate him from them.

Jake

I'm gonna say:

-Pilot w/ Gold Visor

-ODST shoulders (L & R)

-Tactical/Patrol chest *or* HP/Parafoil

-FJ/Para kneeguards/GUNGNIR

Read the description for the Pilot Helmet.

I started up the heated debate on whether the SPARTAN-II in the cryo tube near the end of Reach is really Linda.
I created the Moa XING avatar pic.
Also I earned the All Star nameplate with this submission to Week 14 All Stars http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline11/bwu_0415/art/likea boss.jpg

That. Also SPI armor has variants. I suggest just the Pilot helmet, with ODST shoulders, FJ para kneeguards, and regular chest.
