A nearly-complete collection of high-res vector renderings of the Halo 3 medals is now available for your downloading pleasure. Thanks to Tom 'WaywardSpleen' Pratchios for doing these (some time ago), to b0anerges for asking for them and suggesting that they'd make decent pumpkin templates, and you, for whatever you do with them! (Coupled with SK CRISIS' high-res Halo 3 emblems, you've got an amazing set of groundwork laid for you already.) (Louis Wu 19:36:48 UTC) (permalink)
