Before you read on allow me to clarify since I couldn’t think of anything else for the forum title, these aren’t new avatars as in newly added to the forum. They’re new as in I just spent the last 20 minutes converting images to the format for the forum.
Anyone think they would make a nice addition to the site? I haven’t seen any of those gorgeous CGI images of Hood, Arby, Regret etc added so I thought those would be a nice addition.
You may also recognize the more cartoony avatars from “The Lives” series, these avatars were drawn specifically for each video and usually just collect dust after that so I figured they might be some use here for a silly avatar.
If you want to download the images yourself and take a closer…ish look at them then feel free to right here. Tis a safe link going to my personal Dropbox, though you may need WinRAR or WinZip to open it.

;p
But nah seriously, I really think some of those are really good Spearhead. Some may not immediately get The Lives of… avatars, but all that means is that 343i has to advertise the -Yoink- out of your videos to make them have context.

Oh I didn’t put them there for that, I just thought people might like some silly drawings there. I can get more for all of them really.
Is there a problem with that? It’s not exactly an advertisement, he’s just made the sketches used in the series as avatars for other Waypointers because maybe… just maybe…
… he’s a nice person.P.S. I understand your comment could easily of been a joke but it can be interpreted either way so I’m replying to it.

It wasn’t intended to be a shameless plug. If I wanted to do that I would’ve just been blunt and posted a link to each video or something like that, just to let you know.
The main reason I added them was because they’re Halo related images and some people do actually use them for avatars on different sites. I’m pretty sure The Little Moa used one as his Twitter profile picture for a while. Speaking of which…
