When Art Updates | mrsmiley { March 08, 2005 }

Although these art updates tend to take quite a bit of work on my part, I always love the results! As always, we have tons of great art in this week's update. We also have a bunch of cool new Halo fan strips for you to check out!

This week there a few great non-Halo related pics. I love when I see people doing other characters besides Halo. Don't get me wrong, Halo is great, and there are certainly a lot of good pics, but every now and then something else is rereshing! =)

Gallery Art

• Sparkie
  "Angelic Arbiter" { comment } Where would we be without the usual creative/awesome stuff from Sparkie?
  "Halo Welding Helmet" Sparkie decided to take her skills to a new canvas... a welding helmet! She somehow manages to pull anything off well, even with only an X-acto knife as a tool!

• Halo Fan Strips
  I'm organizing this section a bit different, since there a bunch of new quality strips that have popped up. Hopefully this will be more convenient for you to navigate! Here is a break-down of the new categories:

  - Forum Series: An established comic series on this forum, that ranks relativly high in artistic quality, activity, and is well-received among members.

  - Feature: A one-time comic, or a new series that catches my eye; whether for artistic, or comedic purposes.

  
  Forum Series *updated this week*
  

• MC and Cortana: Session 3.0 - Part 4
• 
  
• Journey to the Covenant Homeworld - Part 15
• 
  
• NEW SERIES! Leet and Masta. This is a hilarious new series by long-time forum member, MechaRaum, with a unique artistic style. It has been around for a bit, but it is now a Forum Series!

• Features
  

• Midnight Flare Chronicles: Part 3
• 
  
• Pimp it, Smiley!

• Already, as I finish up this update, I see at least 4 or 5 new features for next week... GOSH!
