Here. Okay, so it may not officially be the inspiration, but the mandibles in this picture look practically identical to the one's on Halo 4's sangheili. It's probably just a coincidence but still, I thought it was interesting.

I can also see where the squid head moniker comes from.

That's a cool drawing.

Never make me angry. I am a Hitman and I can easily find you and take you out.

I don't really care. Where ever 343 is getting their inspiration, it's the wrong place.

And this was the inspiration for the grunts.

They dont look even remotely similar. The elite armor in halo 4 changed. Their mandibles didnt change all that much. And they are in no way as pointy or tooth-jaggety as the elite in that image.
Fail.

I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.
