Halo Sketches by Mike Hawthorne
April 26, 2013 at 12:28 pm | Posted in Art, Comic Books, Dark Horse | Leave a commentTags: halo initiation, mike hawthorne
Dark Horse Comics artist Mike Hawthorne posted some cool Halo sketches he did at part of early tryout for the upcoming Halo: Initiation mini-series.
“Months ago I was in talks with Dark Horse to draw the comic. I already had several projects on my plate, from both publishers in the US and France, so the timing was really bad for me. It didn’t work out for several reasons, but it was fun to take a shot at the characters.
I have to admit, I’ve never played the game. So it took a lot of sketching to get familiar with the HALO characters. Here were some of the final designs I did.” -Mike Hawthorne
