So…I don’t post in forever other than a couple of whiny journals, and when I do, it’s some Halo nonsense?! What the heck?!
Well, don’t worry, I haven’t suddenly become a Halo fan, in fact, I don’t really know anything about the games (not that there’s anything wrong with them, I just a-don’t own an Xbox and b-suck at FPS’s so I’d never buy it). These fanarts are from the webseries Red Vs. Blue, a machinema series based on Halo.
I’m starting to realize that half the reason I do fanart is to give me an excuse to babble about the things I love, what a nerd.
Anyway, the series is pretty random, and crass, but you can’t help but love the characters, even though they’re all horrible jerks. It’s pretty long at this point, but I still recommend. Especially when you start to get to the later stuff, there’s a shift to a more serious tone and that’s when I really started to love it!

Anyway, it’s machinema, which means the animation is limited to what the game engine can do, so you never see the characters without their helmets and you identify them by color. A guy named Luke McKay went through and designed his interpretations of what they looked like without their helmets.
I loved his designs, and wanted to try them, and I also wanted to give drawing the armor a try. So I did it and it was fun, but don’t worry, my gallery’s probably not going to be flooded with this stuff. Now that I got it out of my system, you probably won’t see it pop up again. But it was fun, and that’s what matters.
