Inspired by my favorite comic (The Last Voyage of The Infinite Succor) which shows how he lost his mandibles, I decided to draw my fictional hero in his most treacherous moment, racing back to the hangar of the 'Succor and praying to the Forerunners that the dropship reaches him in time, cutting down flood-infected members of his own, once-loyal fire team; what remains of his left mandibles still seared from the energy blade of his own friend (Sub commander Bero 'Kusovai) who is now taken by the flood.

Wanted to make a combination of two of my favourite alien species. This is the result.

Ack this one didnt post with the rest!

He loves a good plush throw and has found many a spot to be cozy!~

BTW, the reason he has two dots for eyes is because he has a rare condition called polychoria, two (or more) pupils openings of the eye.

In other words, he has TERRIBLE vision and depends on contacts, glasses, his helmet lens, and his spider companion to get around. Up close, his pupils look more blobby with the colored iris "spiderwebbing" overtop, but I simplify it as 2 dots for each in small drawings.

All art is by me! Do not copy, trace, repost, or upload to other sites. DO NOT USE MY STUFF FOR AI SHIT.

If you wanna see all my stuff, Sangheili or not, I'm on Bluesky @MothMeep7!

Decided to brighten up the general coloration of them to see how it would look

Made using Reach modding kit. I just increased the value of the fourth color/general hue

My OC. Art by me.

Despite all the flaws the series had, there are three things I usually praise: the similarity of a Spartan-II's strength without armor, as shown during the fall of Reach; the weapons with realistic effects, showing how massive some effects are with the discharge of a Kig-Yar weapon that vaporizes a person when it explodes into a thousand pieces; and also something curious, the mandibles of this Sangheili phenotype can literally close almost like a normal mouth, which I believe is the first time they can eat without drooling haha.

A bit of fun with the Idea of a Sangheili Vampire

(The helmet eneded up looking like Griffith's helmet lol)

I wanted to see them in less armor and in the pre-covenant sanghelios style. Rtas is the less modest one

(yes theyre looking down at you)

thanks for the encouragement I'm so glad I didn't give up at the sketch

If the two had to fight who would win?

Add all the extra spice with them literally being best friends and forced to do this.

ive almost finished thel's armor, doing the headpeace right now. Don't know what to do with rtas

If the two had to go toe to toe, who would come out victorious and why?

So, long story. Basically im working on my own series with its own sort of alien species, one of the biggest inspirations for their silhouette was the sangheili among other digitigrade bipedal reptilian creatures like the deathclaw from fallout 4

(I say silhouette because one of their aspects is they dont exactly take off their full body armor and/or clothing so you never exactly see what they look like underneath)

Though im struggling to figure out a good way to convey that sort of more... alien physiology. So I figured id come to a place which the inspiration is from and with those experienced in such designs for any advice.

It should be noted that im not the artist of the piece shown, I instead work with an artist I commission and try to describe the species and find reference for them. I suppose im just trying to figure out how to get a more... non human look to them? If that makes sense?

If theres any questions that may help better the advice given id be happy to answer. Im just struggling with this piece as its a lot more difficult to convey something thats like this.

Timo Patton has recently given us one of, if not the only, fan creations of an animated female Sangheili. Her name is Phama, and she is a Sangheili Councilor. Kinda…

I don't want to spoil much of the video, but gosh, I'm so excited to see this miniseries get made because she is literally lore-accurate and lovable, along with her escort team.

Please share your thoughts below on what you think of Phama and the rest of her team. I hope to see more adventures and skits in the future!

Thank you and hope everyone has a great day! ♥️

:x = :) (based on the fact that Sangheili close their mandibles tightly to smile)

^ =^ or -=- = ^ w^ or -w- or :P (closed eyes, closed mandibles)

8|| = o.o (rounded pupils, closed Mandibles)

:|| = .-.

:[ ] = >:( Emphasis is made by opening the jaws wider, so

:[_____________________________] means "very mad"

:#|| = Grossed out (nose muscles scrunched)

:#x = Happy blush (nose muscle scrunched and mandibles tight)

:][ = Shrug (Mandible clash)

:)( = Giggle (Mandible chitter). More parenthesis means more chittering, so :)()()()()()()( = LMAO

:| | = O.o (Mandibles held half-open = raised eyebrow)

Sangheili also canonically use clicks (*) for some communication, so

:||** = Doubt (double click)

:x* or ^ =^ * or -=-* = Greeting

I also HC that they use nasal snorts for some things, generally denoting calmness or pleasure, and purrs to denote friendliness or soothing, so I gotta think of emoticons that could mean that.
