Playing around with forced perspective, an old film technique used to make subjects appear larger or smaller then they really are. Here I was attempted to make my figures appear to scale according to their actual height in fiction (ref: [link] (heights on that chart are using the now inaccurate avg height 8' 6" as a base. New avg height is now 7'4" per Halo Encyclopedia.). Not completely successful here.

From left to right: Rtas 'Vadum, Anko 'Tidumee, Zeno 'Ribal, and Sani 'Hilvum.

For first time viewers, the two figures in the middle are custom paintjobs. The black/purple one is finished, while the white/silver one is a WIP.

Cause for some stupid reason the company decided to paint him that color instead of silver/white like they should have...*points to the links in her latest journal*

Thinking a light cool grey/metalic color with silver. Don't know yet...but I know my attempt will be 'much' closer then what the company did.

The white paint on Anko still irks me though...*not evident in the pic unfortunately* I can be 'slightly' OCD when it comes things like that...

Anko was actually the SpecOps Commander prior to Rtas and I am using the armor coloration Rtas had in H2 (which was, white and silver). The armor Rtas wore in H3 is hard to see because it is so dark, but definately looks silverish/light grey.

Yeah I would go with the Halo 2 armor too cause in Halo 3 Rtas's armor is hard to see :hmm: White and silver is awesome color though :D You did the colors right :meow:
