Description
You ever have those days where you don't have to do anything?So, yeah, this was a little test to try out a few lighting tricks I found, and an excuse to use a bungalow model and to try to make an anthro Sweetie Belle.
Also, Chief and Sweetie again, because hey, why not. It worked last time.
EDIT: Changed Chief's and Sweetie's poses due to some rather...unfortunate implications with the original.

I like this picture, and the one where Sweetie Belle curls up in John's bed, just near him, while him giving a curious/anxious glare.
We can see John's eyes on those and, even though they're basically lightly frowning, as in mild annoyment/mistrust, it gives him an additionnal measure of humanity. Not just a soldier - can't remember his rank :-P - clad in an armor, completely masked, but also a human.
And, after all, aren't the eyes the windows of soul?
I wonder what he looks like, without his armor on. I mean, his face, his built, features, etc.
Granted, he must look like Nathan Jones, muscularly speaking.

It's about the only way you can look at him.
It really does add to his humanity. A blank mask doesn't say much, while just that simple addition says so much. Also it's about the only way I can give him any expression. And Master Chief actually is his rank.
As for how he looks, well, he's certainly got muscles, but not too much in looks: fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/201…

*looks at the link*
By Sun Butt and Moon Butt!! By the Nine Gods of Equus!! What the heck happened to him?! What is that, all over his face? How did he get that?

20 years of brutal war will do that to you. Plus being in cryo for years, falling from orbit, getting caught in God knows how many explosions, getting launched into space...
He's been through hell and it shows.

So those are ... scars, right? Because it looks like he's having some mean fit of fever or skin illness or allergy something.

Scars, burns, leftovers from the Spartan conversion process, you name it. I just wanted Chief to be kind of ugly.

They seem pretty content now that Rarity has gotten over the initial shock.

I suppose Belle is one of those people who can really warm up to someone, regardless of who or what they are. And besides, who can resist a sun-warmed couch?

Who could resist a nap in the sun?

Just imagine it: a big squishy couch, warm sunlight pouring in, and a soft, salty sea-breeze wafting through an open window.
Still, she could probably do with a nicer pillow. Battle armor can't be too comfortable.

That's for sure. But if you're so tired, You sleep on anything.

Indeed. Plus, she's got poofy hair, so hey, padding!

It might just be crazy enough to do so.

Oh, same here. Gotta love those voice cracks, right?

I actually don't even hear them until someone tells me.

Really? That's a shame. Still, there's plenty of other things that make her a great character.

Yeah. Also I had a look on youtube for it. There's a lot.

Indeed. That pony's like a squeak toy.
