Description
More sketches. A lot of these are related to my Chikri-Merkaa Conflux faction and their military specifically (the vehicle designs are for fighter craft and a new type of MBT), though others are just generic Covies (mostly Elites because they're fun to draw). With the CMC I've been trying to figure out ways to break the Covenant infantry mold a bit by e.g. giving Grunts arm shields and so on. Nothing too radical so far, however.More Covie/Sangheili sketchdumps:

That covenant building is most impressive, how do people make up that stuff.

Thank you -- I don't really have a clear answer on that. I guess I just draw it based on the known Covenant aesthetic, lol.

The hard thing for me is to make up organic shapes that still make enough sense to be used by the covenant, while also looking kinda alien. The crustacean style they use in Halo 5 is a step above that though, truly a thin line between machine and creature.

Thanks! Coming up with casual clothing for the Sangheili is pretty fun.

I agree! Similarly, coming up with anything but armor for the Ancient Humans or Sang-hehe is fun!!

| Amazing work. I adore how you've implemented some of Shiek's older designs into your own. I've honestly missed his style, so it's nice to see it return through your own sketches. Will we be seeing any detailed variations of this faction in the future?
Edit: Accidentally submitted the comment before I was finished, hah. Yay Mobile. |

Thanks -- Shi Kai Wang is one of my key inspirations along with the rest of the classic Bungie crew. There's something very cool about the early CE era designs.
And yeah, I'm actually planning on releasing more finished pieces of the CMC, particularly the military side. I may actually end up using some of these sketches as bases.

Those sketches are really cool. I like the different poses

Thanks! I really should draw more challenging poses and angles, but most of the time I'm too lazy, lol.

Same here but lately I got to appreciate different angles. You can play a lot with perspective and give things a lot of dynamic.
