Title: The Covenant CAS
Post by: Quickdraw on March 04, 2016, 10:20:27 pm

In some Sangheili folklore there is a story of the "great white ghost". A mythical spirit guardian that protects from other evil spirits and acts as a guide for the deceased to make it to the spirit world.
I give you the Covenant CAS Carrier Great White Ghost.

And one for scale. This bad boy comes in just over 10 inches long and 4 inches at its widest point.

Holy. Crap.  ???

That thing looks AWESOME.

And damn near un-killable.

You've inspired me to get the Punic finished. We must duel. To the death.

Awesomeness abounds! I must HALO soon! Okay, well, after Adpeticon, but soon!

Yes. Agreed. You must Halo soon. Chris and I will eventually get tired of whaling on each other.

Thanks a lot.
I used a paint brush with the purple shade that the rest of my covenant are done in. If you add the citadel medium to it the paint really just glides into the panel lines once you touch it down into a corner.
