Special effects artist Pete Mander has put his talent to good use in devising this life-sized, scarily realistic costume modeled after the Sangheili, a.k.a. Elite, that you know and love so well from the Halo series. “Cosplay” seems like rather a cheap word to describe what Mander hath wrought; you’ll see what we mean when you check out the pictures and making-of video below.

Device Mag has more photos of the costume.
