Hey there 405th! So one of my favorite things about the Halo Universe is how expansive it is. Bungie as well as 343i have done a really good job of making it feel like a living, breathing Universe. I love all the different fictional companies and products that are depicted in the Haloverse like Asklon, BXR, Fronk's, etc. None of them really have much to do with the game as far as gameplay goes, but tiny, minuscule details like this go a long way into giving a pulse to your game's world building. I'm one of those people who like reeeeeaaaaally obscure references in games and film. So much so, that over the years, I've done a lot of Graphic Design work to create in-fiction artifacts from games and movies. Since Halo is my favorite game franchise, you can understand why I have a lot (A LOT) of Halo themed designs. I usually try to keep them based both in reality and the in-game fiction, often taking inspiration from similar programs/places in the real world. So this thread is essentially to share all these crazy things in my head that I've decided to design. Most if not all of these have never been seen in game, but they're all lovingly and carefully set in the Halo Universe. Most of the time they are based on an in-game company or location so I have something to go off of. Here we go.
Gannick-22 Mission Patch
This is kinda supposed to be like a Mission Patch like the ones NASA has, but based on the planet Gannick-22. You might see something like this on the shoulder of someone working on one of the planet's orbital platforms. Meant more to be a civilian patch than a military one.
Greetings from Harvest Postcard
So some of you may recognize this one from my fan film thread. It's a tourism postcard that you'd get in a spaceport on the planet Harvest. I actually have like 10 of these irl. lol.
UNSC Callisto Mission Patch
This is also a mission patch for one of the stations orbiting Callisto, on of the Jovian Moons of Jupiter. The image in the center is based on Anchor 9, it has a NASA-esque chevron placed over Jupiter and Callisto, both of which can be seen in the background. You can also see (if you're really looking) the constellations of Ursa Minor and Major, which are representations of Callisto and her son Arcas (Greek Mythology).
Chiron Station Sticker
This is essentially a shipping label from Chiron Station. I would hope most of you remember Chiron as one of the levels in Halo: CE. Some of you may not know it's actually a space station in orbit around Mars in the Halo Universe. This design is based on one of the teleporter thresholds. I actually had a few of these made in sticker form.
Fronk's M12-R Rally Hog
Last but not least, I was having a bit of fun in Photoshop today, thus the Rally Hog was born. It's basically a Trophy Truck version of the Warthog. It's clearly sponsored by Fronks, lol. It also has a sponsor sticker from Blast energy drink on it, as well as an AMG badge. (which stands for Asklon... Motor Group? maybe?)
Well that's all I have on this computer... so far. I'm always making new ones. I find it fun to come up with my own in-fiction stuff. How 'bout you guys? Do you have any as-yet seen logos or ideas? if so, I'd love to see them. Or even if you have an idea, let me know and I could maybe draw it up for you. Otherwise, let me know what you guys think! Peace out, Gen-2 Scouts!
