So I recently started working on a project set in the Halo universe. Thinking I would start out easy and start by creating a ring, a Halo to be precise. Recycled an old left over set of textures from my Milky Way project and I where also lucky enough to find an .lwo file of the original Halo from "Halo: Combat Evolved" to use as a reference to get size correct.
Made a quick render with that above before I started working on my own actual model, note that the reference model where extracted (not by me though, can't remember source) from Halo: Combat Evolved for PC and the textures are two 8192x256 (Cloud and Cloud Mask) and one 16384x512 modifed Earth texture from NASA's Blue Marble project.
I'm going for a mix of detailing that I've so far seen in later Halo incarnations as well details from Halo CE: Anniversary, I will draw ideas and from concepts, videos and the games them self.
