Description [::: Elite :::]

Just realised that in all my time as a halo fan, ive never actually drawn an elite! So ... yup! As i'm sure you can appreciate, i didnt want to go for a "realistic" look etc. Theres a time and a place for it and well ... this wasnt the time!

Approx 40 mins.

All comments welcome and appreciated, thanks!

Why are people saying it looks good? Looks more like someone vomited on it and stuffed it up more trying to clean it off.

If Halo didn't have all that trouble with copyright and IP and all that, you could seriously sell this as a print... I love it.

Two things came to mind for what the elite was thinking in this pic: "Owned, bitch!!!" or "And Stay dead!!"

Personally, I would have said the latter if I were in the elite's situation. Cool pic.

Yanno, it's funny how much difference a fulllview can make. I saw the thumbnail and was like, eh... then once I fullviewed all the details came jumping out in the face and everything, and it turned from "eh..." to AMAZING just like that. [/small rant]

But yes, I believe this would have to be my favorite piece of Elite fanart on DA. Awesome work, I love the black and white style... and the fact that it took, uh, 40 minutes just blows me away. Excellent work... but one question; Have you thought about doing fanart of the new and improved Halo 3 Elites? Just curious.
(Oh, and sorry for the overly-long comment. )

martinhoulden In reply to ChrisMoschler [2007-11-26 09:18:00 +0000 UTC]

hehe, thanks

and i guess it means my composition wasnt that strong in preview. And as for halo fanart well ... I think my halo-ing days are over for now. Until the film anyway. I wasn't overly inspired by Halo3 - way too short, and more of the same. I loved the advertising campaign though Just a shame you didnt get to do any of that cool stuff in the game!

ChrisMoschler In reply to martinhoulden [2007-11-27 03:42:53 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome. And I completely agree with you about 3 being too short... but I still thought the game was epic, probably my favorite in the series so far. But it's a shame to hear there won't be any moe Halo stuff from you, you're so good at it. XD Oh well...
