Artist's Comments

SHAZAM! Finally done, lol. Scanner, as usual, killed most of the shading.

Its been a while since I've drawn any Halo stuffs or did any real pencil drawings so I said "What the hey" and got to work...two months later xD

I used a reference, of course. Some really amazing Halo Wars picture, I loved it to death. Took...8 hours maybe? I dunno. I just hacked away at it little by little for the longest time :S

Enjoy.

Holy schnap...!
SERIOUSLY awesome shading!!!
From the thumb my first impression was that maybe it was just a black and white filtered version of a render of a Halo Wars Spartan II with the contrast pumped up, but heck no.
Impressive accuracy, incredible depth in lighting. Albiet directly referenced from a stock image, that image was a CGI render. It's no small task to translate that into a greyscale sketch. And I haven't ever seen somebody do it this well IMO.

Major favourite markage :+fav::thumbsup:

With all the updates DA keeps doing, I wish they'd put some sort of feature that let you feature one deviation from somebody else for a period of time. Like how you can mark your personal fav out of your gallery and display it. This would certainly occupy that spot for a time.

Sorry if that sounds like a bunch of fluff. I get tired of seeing fanart that's off model/not-so-good in other ways or Halo 3 screen-caps, this just blew my mind when I brought it up.
