Hello everyone. Welcome to Halo United. You may have noticed it’s been quite a while since the last “Halo Community” featured piece. That’s because we’ve had a little change behind the scenes, and are now partnered with Halo Spotlight.
As such, the featured pieces known as ‘Halo Community’ pieces will now be known as Halo Spotlight pieces, and will feature one artist, along with a summary of the posts made that week over on Halo Spotlight. These features will happen once a week here on Halo United, so be sure to check up on the site.
This spotlight piece will be showing off artwork by MediumGreySky. MediumGreySky provided descriptions with each piece of artwork, so we hope you enjoy them below.
Survivor Base Camp – Passing Storm
Stories Of Another Life
Cradle Of Life Memorial Preserve, Edge Of The African Glassing Site
A Dream Of Peace
UNSC Field Medic Attempts To Save The Life Of A Fellow Soldier
UNSC Salvage And Research Outpost ‘Carrion‘

MediumGreySky also shared some information on what they used to do before creating Halo artwork in Source Filmmaker;
Before I got into SFM I’d been making kind of B-roll cinematic videos of certain Halo levels with the Blind Skull for fun.

Inika Heroes
Our island, occupied from shore to shore by the Six Chieftains.
Yet in these warriors we found a sense of hope though some had their doubts.
How could 6 humans take on an army of brutish aliens? Sure they had their own special armor, weapons and equipment but it seemed impossible!
But as they’ve showed, it’s not what you have, it’s what you do with it.
Spartan Hussars – Mustafa
“I see him, Lord General. He’s… He’s holding a… cross?”
“Ultra Veri, tell the artillery commander to fire on that hill.”
“At once, General.”
…
“Strange… The wind is still. But the Trees still move as if it’s blowing.”
