Metal head Sangheili

This took me OVER 10 HOURS. Holy crap.

The main purpose of this was to prove to myself I could do something detailed and different if I really took the time to do it. That I'm not just someone to churn out the same art over and over, I can do anything if I really try. I would never have thought to even attempt an Elite from Halo but I tried and tried hard. The result was better than I thought it would be but could be better. I can't do metal well but the way the skin came out I like.
Armour is complicated.

Why did I do an Elite? Cause I like them. Simple as. And a chance to do skin and metal, neither of which I'm very good at.

I might add scratches and scars and so on later but I wanted to show you people I haven't forgotten this. I left it for a bit because it was ripping my wrist apart. I press down too hard I think.

Background was random, I roughly copied how there is those violet lights in Covenant ships etc. Not massively accurate but I wanted to put something there.

I love the eye though. I copied my cat's eyes for that.
