If I'm really dressing like that, I'll totally embarrassed...
Augh! The front Sangheili head is extremely hard to draw. I think I redraw it over 3 times. And the outfit shading also makes me some troubles to render it. It looks so... plastic feel. Well, I follow my avatar to color the skin and eyes, and something else for other details. Also, that outfit represeant me is just a rookie class. If I can draw better, I'll change the ID with better outfit.
2 days for this. But I didn't use soft shade effect because I'm so busy to draw other arts. But I gained the clear look of this ID. About outfit design, I think it's my first time to design for Sangheili. But the waistband is taken from Halo2 Elite Armor. The unique take time is shading, always is.
Sangheili @ Halo, Bungie
Character @ Me
Total time to take:
1 hour for sketch
2 hours for line-art
4 hours for coloring
5 hours for shading
1 hour for light & shadow
...and finished
Vector made by Microsoft® Expression™ Design.

You do a great job with coloring. I like how clean yet detailed you are able to be. It's a good balance that I haven't quite figured out yet.

It's a vector work, so the coloring isn't too major to say how clean it is.
I must admit some of my digital work are in help with vector coloring, but at least they saved me from the coloring problem with tablet.

Very nice. I love the outfit (Why is it fan art can make more original clothes for elites then Halo Legends? XD)
Love the character ^^

It's a combination of modern minimalistic, Romanian gypsy and protective fabrics partially on her skins. Dunno if such design is "outdated", but I'm glad you still like that outfit.
If you want to know more about her, you can send a request note to me, or KaineRano.

She never have good time, if you understand her background. I am making her ref. sheet and small details of her story. If you really interested, I can spoil you a little by note.

Yes, please please! Do tell!
I'm sorry to hear that, maybe she really is the equivalent of a Sangheili Cinderella?

I could say it's hard to draw, but not get involved when drawing the front view elite. If it was a skill issue, I could say it require lots of references to make it looks better. Or if you don't like to, there was no other way else to draw instead... no offense.

None taken, I suck, well now, I WAS really good, but haven't practiced in a while.

Well, actually I am interested of your artworks. I think you could try more if you really like going for elites. Thought, "TDL" isn't the best drawing, yet the first submission made by myself. Maybe you could draw better than my old works. Just make sure you really getting for one.

Hey, glad you're here. About my style, actually I have no fixed style for each drawing. I'm just keep finding out what will look more suitable for any situations. Only the shading I have a unique way to did it.

All in all it's pretty good quality stuff you've got here, 'specially the eye pictures. :3

The hooves look great. The sharp shading in particular really makes them
stand out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm appreciate to draw that shading when you said that. If I didn't shade hooves, those'll looks flat and rough. In my sketch I didn't prepare to shade it as well, so the result may very...

Awesomeness, Dy!! She looks great! A few problems, yes, but I think you did fantastically

Thank you, and I'll draw it better.

Yes I like it. But of course as you said the head is a bit down. A little bit of practice should do her though
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, her front head's look quite weird. I didn't find some good reference to draw it because some views are with helmets. At least I tried and didn't let down this work. Practice of course is much needed.

Yes. Kudos to you comrade. ^^

Great stuff! I really like how you've done the feet and legs 'specially.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! I paid a bit hard word of double-joint legs. But I didn't draw round enough of hooves.
With my point to know, the female Sangheili's legs should be entad just like human. But for this stance I'd rather draw the outward look, and front and back of lower-knees. I think I'll try some more stance later.

That is wonderful! Keep up the great work like this, I do hope that you wil be putting more pictures like this up.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course I will. If I can draw better and faster, I'll pay more attention of Sangheili drawing. Anyway, thanks!
