Nicholas Yelsa is back at it again (and quickly) with a helmet now to go with his Elite head sculpt. It’s still a work in progress but looks great so far!
Heh, I didn’t expect an update so quickly, but am happy to post it. Check it out!
If Nicholas keeps pumping out pics like this, his project may become a recurring article on HFFL!!
I found this on twitter yesterday and knew I just had to share it! Yes, I got permission to repost it here. Watch the whole thing!!

I just love this whole timelapse. From the sketching to resizing, refinement, line art, inking and shading, this piece of art is well done! Be sure to click on both the artist twitter account and the person who commissioned the artwork for more great Halo art!

These are absolutely AMAZING! The detail is fantastic. Not just the large detail, but the softer skin detail.
