On the context of Vision - I gave it 4.5 stars. It is well displayed and not something that you can see a dime a dozen of on dA. This is the title for Halo that not many people seem to know about. Sure people have played it, but it likely is not the first to come to memory when asked... "What was your favorite Halo?"
On Originality - I rated it a 4, yes it is nicely put together, but from images already created. There is some skill in manipulating images that already exist to fit, but you can never beat drawing it yourself.
On Technique - I rated it a 4.5, partially due to the time frame it was done in. The work is good for something less than 10 hours. There likely were multiple layers and also several items that required cropping and free transforming to create this. There are some issues I have with the lighting, I know that it is difficult to get good realistic lighting when working in a 2D layered field, but some of the front light does not match the shadows and the intensity of some of the other lights is slightly overpowering.
Lastly...
On Impact - I rated it a 4. It is well done and I like the content. As I noted at the beginning I have played, should also state replayed this Halo version several times. I like the use of the real people in place of the simulated versions. It adds some character to the image. Only thing that would make it more heavy on impact is if they could have had some interesting facial expressions that went with the game personalities.
