Tallo Negro del Maiz

Description

Linda, Fred and Will during their trip to Cuba in Ghosts of Onyx. I don't often do personal pieces of this scope and scale, and this is one of those ones I can say I'm very happy with overall (even though again I could've avoided some of the artistic liberties with the scene setup and the loadouts if I'd checked the book first). Drawing the space elevator (or the background in general, really) was more fun than it should've been. Full view recommended for the optimum experience.

While I'm actually kinda fine with Blue Team's post-war armor designs (though I'd have preferred they be green), I feel they look out of place when they're supposed to be wearing Mark VI, so I tried to adapt the Centurion and Argus designs to the traditional Mark VI base. This is keeping in mind that the Mark VI has never even been my favorite MJOLNIR design (I prefer the Mark V) but I feel that since it is a thing, any armor variants built on it should respect its aesthetic rather than just discarding it completely. So consider this an alternate-universe "how they may have actually looked like" version. I used the default set for Will since he has no precedent for any variant model, and because it adds more credibility to the notion of it actually being the base model when someone other than the Chief wears it for once.

EDIT: Updated with more Mark VI-compliant helmet designs.

Looking at halo fanart while listening to ghosts of onyx and look at what I come across just after listening to the part depicted.
