Another CGHub Find
When poking around CGHub, I stumbled across an artist known as 'alp' - Allen Altiner is an art director in the film industry, but he does a lot of Halo work on his own time. Here are some of his pieces.
- Concept Painting - Spartan vs Elite
- Halo Fight - speed painting
- HALOMAN - Spartan and landscape
- Halo - speed painting
- Halo Alley - Gritty Spartan
- Scifi Gun Set - Halo-inspired weapons
- Halo 3 - speed painting
Pretty cool stuff! (Louis Wu 22:42:34 UTC) (permalink)
Jun
Jarod Lenz Erwin, who created the UI and painted background for the Waypoint mobile app, posted a pretty cool picture of Jun he did for 343. Love that detail! Thanks to NeoGAF's TheOddOne for finding it. (Wait... does this mean we'll be seeing Jun in future 343 creations? Ack! What will happen to A Fistful of Arrows?)

Podtacular 267
Podtacular 267 went live this weekend - Dust Storm talked to CruelLEGACEY about his series Playtime, and to one of Playtime's characters about the plot. Go listen! (Louis Wu 22:39:08 UTC) (permalink)
The Halo Project
It's been a long time since we heard from ICDedPpl - but he sent us a link of his buddy's Photobucket album showing off some great armor pics. thorn696 is a 405th regular who doesn't even play Halo - but he makes armor good enough to win contests (three First Place awards this weekend alone!). Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 22:38:30 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Comic Poster
CaptainTony pointed out a pretty cool Halo Comic poster created by Riznof he found on deviantART - look at that six-pack!

Starting Strong
Morpheus noticed a GameInformer article on the Top Ten Launch Games of All Time (how do you measure this?) - Halo made the list. Pretty high up, even!

An amazing Spartan Laser
DaFrontlineTrooper put together a video showing off a Spartan Laser he built - very cool! Thanks to robofin117 for the heads-up - and for pointing out DaFrontlineTrooper's Facebook page, which contains blueprints for his weapons!

...aaand... we're back.
It's been 17 hours - but it looks like AT&T managed to get a generator on the switching hut near HBO Central. The fiber line has power again, so things are running. Forums are back. We're sorry for the downtime. (Louis Wu 22:05:19 UTC) (permalink)
HBO fritzing
Quick note, parts of HBO central are without power. Expect power back up fairly soon. Everything's cool otherwise... how's by you? (Ding 15:35:20 UTC) (permalink)
