Inspired by the Live action Trailer for Halo 3 ODST . It gave me the chills. It might not do so for everyone. However i believe its a good example of good advertisement.

Personally, not a really big fan of Halo series, although, they have some neat designs (and again inspired from other sources as well), all of which have unfortunately fallen very generic over time.

Done on paper: Originally as a sketch, then Inked onto an onion paper, xeroed, and then colored in.

Ink was scanned separately from the color, and then were added post-scan. to give more contrast, and to show details of the ink, that were lost during coloring.

My first attempt at Colored Pencils. I was a bit puzzled how to do it with only 12 available colors., but i guess practice will make people better. After scanning i noticed some proportion awkwardness as well... Oh well.

Constructive Criticism absolutely welcome.
