What a way to spend the night, free fall drop, nice stroll through the canyon, taking out unsuspecting targets down range.

I had it in the story he was like 5 miles away from the target which were in lower elevation. He was going to have his Squad ODST in on the camp after he caused a big diversion. He prefers to be the head of a assault or infiltration mission, even though hes a Captain of his own ship. allowing his Co-Captain to take over.

Some of them may've been tipped off by the massive thruster burst, though. That's going to look and sound like a reasonably sized explosion to anyone nearby
/ over-analyzing

Glad it came out great and I plan to put in his who squad later when The-Chronothaur is done with other commissions.

Thanks. I personally quite enjoy doing nighttime environments.

Wow, this looks really cool with the smoke and the night sky

Thank you! I quite like the way the smoke turned out myself.

I do struggle with smoke, so I know it can be a pain in the ass to draw/paint. The only critique I got (just saw it myself) is that the smoke isn't swirling around the Spartan's foot on the ground, so now it looks a bit as if he's still flying into nothingness rather than touching down. That's just a detail though

My idea was that despite the title, he's still some distance off the ground, maybe half a meter or so. But I can see how it might appear a bit confusing. In the original sketch I had a little shadow below his foot to indicate he hasn't landed quite yet, but that didn't work all too well since the ground is covered in the smoke/thruster wash.

Oh I see it now. In that case don't bother about my critique

Love the mix of gen 1 and 2. Reach really did have the best armor in the seriesΒ

Agreed. Most what came after Reach looked less iconic.

Yeah I wanted the best of both worlds. and Why they took out the crotch protectors still makes me wonder why.
Besides that I wanted him to be tech out doing a "Halo Jump" and landing in the dark on mission. This is my favorite one so far

I mean it could be clunky, though hey I don't wanna be shot in the crotch with a plasma bolt with my shield down. *Shudder*
