    The description on this map file will explain the armor variant.

    Brutes or Jiralhanae strongly believe in pack mentality. Although there are multiple ranks in their heiarchy, the Chieftain holds the top. Chieftains are usually the strongest and the most agressive out of the pack leading a dozen or even more individual brutes into battle and up to entire settlements on their homeworld. Jiralhanae Chieftains are subjected to challangers of their rank, and only a fight to the death can resolve this. A relatively unknown fact about the chieftains is not only are they military leaders, but they also serve as spiritual leaders almost like shamans for their pack.

    Anyway this is a full forgewold budget big monkey with a hammer.
    -I highly recommend taking a look at this from a distance in forge. The "impostering" makes some finer details on the armor and especially the hands, face, and the belt look jaw dropping. Thank you Bungie!

    If you liked my Halo 3 work, I'm not planning on stopping forging
    Enjoy!

    You didn't! But oh my gosh, you did!

    This is actually mind-blowing dude. I cannot believe how proportionate you make these bad boys, but this has got to be the most colossal forge statue that has every graced this site. I just keep scrolling up and down while writing this to see if my eyes have deceived me... ;)

    I'd be suprised if it doesn't get featured. Your last map (Hunters) on Halo 3 was very impressive. I can't wait to see what you do on Forge world. Anyway its a very good map. The first Aesthetics map I've seen on Reach actually. It also looks like it'll be the mostimpressive map I'll see for a long time.... :)

    Dude, I couldn't wait to see your first master piece in Reach. But there it is, and its HUGE! I love the armor, and his face is epic. Although the way he's holding the hammer looks kind of weird. OH, you know what would be awesome. A flock of Moa! You should do that. Maybe make a running one, a yelling one, and a dead one. XD

    EDIT: OR maybe you could make a jackal, and have the shield be all big since now there's a bunch of shield doors/one way shields.

    This is exceedingly impressive. There's really not much room for critique. The gravity hammer is spot-on and the posture is fairly natural. Mind telling me how long this took>

    I don't know... looks a little slim to be a brute, but still impressive. Definitely not your best work, but you're still getting accustomed to forging on Reach... I'm sure. Kinda looks more like something out of Transformers 2 than a Brute Chieftain... but that's just me.

    uh......eh.......ummm......oh sorry my mind exploded from the large size and epicness of the post. I'm fine now. and your map is more than fine. its perfectly healthy. and you have done a fine job taking care of it. Keep giving it plenty of water, make sure its eating plenty of blocks and make sure it stays awesome. good work and keep it up.

    All I can say Grim is that is that Forge World is a canvas.
    You painted a mona li... er... Chieftain on it.
    That makes you the Freakin Da Vinci of Forge.

    Your artwork has transitioned flawlessly into Reach and I can't wait to see more from you.
    Have fun being awesome you Renaissance Man you =)

    O M G!
    That is one of the most epic things i have ever seen.

    It ranks up with my other 2 other favorites Fronk and your Hunters.

    The detail looks pretty amazing

    How long did it take you to make this?

    I couldnt forge that if I spent like 6 months on it

    This is just awesome this is a def download, soon you gonna have every single rance created, even the spartan. But i must say he does look a bit skinny, he must be drinking 98% fat free milk.

    Dude, this thing is a site to behold! It's colossally spectacular.
    Although I agree with Shroomz, after a second look, it might be a little slim but in all honesty that doesn't matter. His stance looks as if in mid-swing protecting his island from invisible enemies. The face is animated with serious emotion and the grav hammer is seriously impressive. Never thought I'd spend so much time looking at a grav hammer.

    Nothing else to say, really. It looks amazing; awesome work, man.

    Lol the chieftain feeds on noob, due to the fact that they are always attracted to climing into its mouth and throat. The only downfall on that is that eventhough he gets A LOT to eat, the average attention and lifespan of a noob does not give it enough time to fatten up. So...poor monkey is basically on a constant diet..
    I should of posted a vid flythrough. You get a complete different understanding of it in 3d. Does not seem that skinny if you stand on the ground and look up lol

    Wow, that's pretty damn impressive. Anybody could make a four-limbed thing with a fancy helmet, put a gravity hammer in its hands and call it a brute, but it really does look like a brute. My favorite part is definitely the gravity hammer. The stance he's in gives him a sense of motion that's really hard to capture in a sculpture as well. Nice Job

    Absolutely right on the stance. The grave hammer's job is to balance tht brute out.
    Wait till you see the motion on the next project..

    You, sir, are a FORGE GOD! I loved the Hunter, Grunt and Elite ones in Halo 3, and it seems you just have an endless supply of ideas. Keep up the good work!

    Btw a skirmisher sculpture thing would look pretty sick if you're thinking of making more.

    So yeah, I showed 2 of my mates this map, and all three of our jaws dropped. The level of detail, as always, is superb! I can't believe the hammer is three Lockout BR bases, and the facial expression is very scary. I am so glad you carried on forging these in Reach. I'm already watching your next project anxiously, and I am excited to see what you mat create in the future.

    Congratulations for the well deserved mention in this week's Bungie weekly update!
    Every time people complain to me about forge, I end the game and load up this map.
    "If this guy can do THIS, you can line up three walls. Suck it up."
    Works every time!
