Leme 'Ehsaree Request

On holiday up in Northland, I had my laptop, but not an awful lot to do. This combined probably with a fortunate alignment of the planets put me in a mood which made me accept a sketch request from ~Halo-Arbiter-fan. He wanted a drawing of his elite character Leme 'Ehsaree wielding a energy sword with a needler clipped to his side. I had never really liked the needler, being so pink and fabulous as it is, but while I was drawing this, I realised that a needler shoots bits of glass which stick in you and then explode- pretty brutal when you come to think about it. xD

I'm quite pleased with how this came out, the pose here is more or less a better version of the one I used in this, but I think the sense of movement here is better and the body is twisting a bit more naturally.

Hope you like it, ~Halo-Arbiter-fan! I would like to be able to offer full colour, but I'm so slow at colouring that it becomes a ridiculous amount of work (arguably 50+ hours) to get colour of quality that I'm happy with, so I'm be somewhat disinclined to run myself quite that ragged.

PS. This does not imply that requests are open season, although I don't want to say they're closed either. On rare occasions, depending on how busy I am, how difficult and how cool I think your idea is, I might or might not accept requests.

PPS: ~Halo-Arbiter-fan can you tell me this character's name and I'll update the title and description with it.
