It's a Flood Infected Grunt! His tendrily things were made from the smoke wisps on a Spiderman Mysterio base so I didn't have to sculpt those and they're flexible. I drilled holes in the end and added wire for the flood sensors. The rest of the flood infection parts were hand sculpted with Aves Fixit sculpt so they blended in with the normal Grunt features. I had to hack his head off and move it to the right then take off his lower jaw and sculpt the torn mouth. The very last pic shows a normal Grunt straight outta the package and then my customized version. Enjoy!

Dang that is cool, and horrifying but the grunts are immune because [link]
1. Not enough calcium, flood live off this stuff
2. Too small to actually be useful, Halo wars just did that to make another unit
3. Its a grunt, totally useless unless you add 6-7 of them and then you have a carrier form

but hey forget the stuff up there that is awesome what you did there

Same with Jackals they don't have enough calcium, although they are useful for sniping.

yeah, it is literally IMPOSSIBLE for the flood to infect a grunt, they lack the calcium required and are immune

nice concept, unfourtunently its NOT cannon, nor will it ever be cannon

In HALO WARS they could be infected and was still considered canon. They were later just deemed unsuitable for combat and simply used the as biomass instead.

ignore my other comment

The flood grunt in HALO WARS is still non-cannon, only being there for game play purposes

Yes, but it is still canon.

Yeah, sorry, but HALO WARS isn't considered to be a part of the main story, so the flood grunt isn't considered to be a main story character

It is still official canon. BUNGIE accepted it as such. But yes, no Grunt Combat Forms have appeared in the main games.
