18 of the 100 Theme Art Challenge.

Once again, I thought I'd try doing something a little less predictable with the theme. A special thanks to my friend Psycho for helping me avoid drawing actual rainbows.

I originally wanted to do something tactically semi-realistic, but I soon discovered that one of the reasons they probably move so close together like that is to minimize the line of sight to more than a single person at a given time while allowing the unit as a whole to blast anyone coming from any direction to kingdom come. Unfortunately, this means most of the time, there's one guy in front and a ton of random elbows and feet sticking out from people behind him. This might be great if you want to avoid being shot, but it sure makes for really dumb-looking drawings. In the end, I ended up putting them in a tactically inferior setup in favour of making them look cooler.
