Hello! I'm a male!

As far as matte paintings go, those aren't bad (especially that last one), but those Spartans look retarded. They look like they were made out of cardboard by a 6 year old with Parkinson's.
this coming from the guy who's avatar is a cartoon drawing of a spartan holding a mop in a field?

Rock + Metal = Life
Simple math

The third one was best because the first picture was showing the spartans gettin owned (and that s-u-c-k-s).

Why the Parkinson's reference, are you not aware its a disease that affects a lot of people ? Poor show from someone who is supposed to be moderating.

The last 1 is when the spartans were training. 2nd one things like that happened but the image looks retarded. 3rd is epic but hardly makes sense- there would have to be way more Elites to make Spartans look like reg. marines begging for mercy.

Life is contradictory and ambiguous but it also isn't.

Somewhere, a 3d modeling hobbyist is crying all over his keyboard. How much can you expect of google sketchup?

plus that it's still a pretty epic looking picture, and gives me pleasant thoughts about what the game could be like :).

The first one doesn't make sense at all because not many Spartans were slain by a single Elite. Plus all the Elites are wearing armor from Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo Wars.

Yeah, it looks like they ripped the Elites right outta Halo 3, and then made retarded cardboard spartans.

there's more than one elite, and i doubt Bungie will go back to the way elites looked in halo 1 for Reach. also it really only looks 1 spartan is an elites -blam!- all the others are fighting.

What I had to say about that final art peice in another thread:

It's one of my favourite peices of Halo art I've ever seen. If anybody knows what this is from, can you tell me? It's just so emotional. From what I can tell the Sergeant sent them on a "fubar" mission, and one of the Spartans was shot through the head an killed. Troops are hoisting the body (without a helmet) up into a Pelican as the Spartan scolds the Sergeant for his poor tactical choices, as he is being held from attacking him by ODSTs. Great scene. It almost seems like it could be from Reach's concept art.

looks kinda like the sergeant might have actually shot the spartan.

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed, knowing better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives: not men, for flags.
"The Next War"

That last piece is breath taking. The level of emotion is almost tangible! If you have read the books, you can almost feel the level of emotion that would have. Especially enough to make a Spartan act out like that.

One is stupid.

First reason, Elite holding a spartan up with 1 hand? how heavy is that armour again? 1 ton?? don't think so, and there was never a mass slaughter of spartans in the novels.

I think the picture should be the other way around to be honast.
i think it was in ghost of onyx or one of the novels where it was said that there was an elite group of special ops spartans or something that were sent on suicide missions in low grade light armour. this could be a picture depicting the fate of one of these suicide squads. i think i remember it saying that the armour those squads used didnt even have personal shields. it was just metal and thats it. they were easily killed in battle

six & seven are really cool.
In the seven picture,I think the Spartan is angry at the guy with no armor who seems to have killed the dead guy behind him.
Funny to see how many ODST are trying to push back the Spartan.

six is probably one of my favorites. I really hope this part is in the game. it'd be cool if there's a couple levels before you get that armor and then others where you do have it.

picture ONE, i dont understand, spartan 117 could take all those elites on, how would all those spartans not make the cut? are the other spartans just ODSTs? there would have to be more detail on why master chief is the only spartan that can kill millions of aliens, and those 5+ spartans lost to 6+ elites.


This battle is right toward the end of the novel - John wasn't at this battle, he was in orbit around the planet on one of the docking stations (for reasons I dont wanna go into incase it spoils anything...) The Spartans here aren't ODST's, ODST's are sort of like SAS soldiers or Special Ops - Spartans are a lot better. The book tells us that all the ground forces were overrun by countless number of Covenant. Spartans are kick ass, but not invincible and although John seems it... not everyone has his luck. I doubt even he would have survived the attack on Reach judging from the final chapters of the novel.

Last one is horrendous. Wow. Looks to me like that Sergeant pulled the trigger, having the gun behind his back and all.
