The Drop, depicting a huge low orbit assault drop by the UNSC fleet above the Atlantic, the drop zone, Argentina, the mission, classified.

This is an Illustration showing the opening scene of the fan movie Operation Chastity, one of the hardest images I have had to paint, getting the right scale and look of the UNSC ships and drop pods as well as conveying a sense of order and chaos, the order of the fleets positions, lined and precise, and the chaos of the drop.

I tried a different lighting technique this time round, a more indirect lighting style, I also went for a warm sunset pallet in keeping with the saturated colours of the Halo Universe. I also added a little tribute on to the side of a frigate.

A limited number prints will be made available, if you would like more information on the project and about the prints enquire at [link]

Enjoy

The large ship in the distance says "Shoulders of Atlas" the closest frigate says "JON-117/" a reference to Master Chief hehe

Destiny is not a matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It's not a thing to be waited for - it is a thing to be achieved.

this would have been a good picture of the invasion of the Covenant home world. we would have done to them what they did to us, UNSC!!!
