Halo Historic Scenes was a community project where UNSC and Covenant fanatics across the world came together to recreate iconic images taken directly from the annals of history. Using just the Halo 3 engine, these screenshots were carefully remade in Forge, matchmaking, and custom games, all in the easily recognizable Halo style.

i’d like to see normandy.
you must be the first person ever to say that.
Loved the burning monk picture, though it’s sad it happened. As a Buddhist, it’s been a powerful image for me, and I’m glad someone re-created it.
Of the Apollo 11 pics I think I well I and thestnkinlncoln are best..
Nobody want to do “I have a dream” of Martin Luthe King?
I thought about that but yo need a lot of friends online who are very patient
hmm, good idea. i think i might try that.
So do I have to send my screenshot to bs angel? How? Do I go to bs angel’s bungie.net profile then click on “Message this user” and send the orginial b.net link of the photo or upload to photobucket and send that link???
Please use the contact page here to send me a link to the b.net file and also a link to the source image. :)
Oh alright, but what do you mean a link to the source image? Is the source on b.net in my profile or photobucket?
By source image I mean the image you are recreating.
Somebody should recreate a screenshot of the hindenburg. it would be sick.
I can’t believe nobody thought of that yet…
Uh…slight problem, the historic screenshot I found is actually a .gif, a small one >.< still allowed or no? I'm still looking for a better version.
