There isn’t a better way to end the weekend than to show off my latest figure: Spartan Horvath!
I think I’m actually the very first person to make a custom Horvath. Someone see if I’m right about that, I wanna know. I started this guy 2 months ago according to google photos and I finally have him complete. I painted him mainly using the book Rubicon Protocol cover art as reference, alongside Halo Infinites armor coating, and a little bit of self interpretation. That actually made painting him somewhat difficult because the armor coating in game and the cover of the book are very different. But either way I had a lot of fun, this was the first time I ever tried digital camo aside from normal camo. Took me a bit to figure it out but got the hang of it pretty fast. I decided to include the Halo 5 assault rifle with him besides the Halo Infinite one because it’s what he has on the cover art. And honestly the weapon fits him really well, I don’t think it would look as good if it were the Halo Infinite version. All in all I love how he turned out and am so happy to have another mark 7 spartan in the collection.

-zandri dust
-steel legion drab
-thondia brown
-xv-88

Stay tuned next time for a purple reach spartan!
