Nomad said do a desert... so a desert I did. Well, until I decided to add grass. But, anyway... it's a random generated terrain, three terrain-textures, ever-so-slightly modified skyscape. I mentioned that all I needed was a strip of Halo on the horizon, heh.

So that got me wondering... how the heck could I do that? After about an hour of a severe crash course in Masks, I accidentally found out how they work and voila! The transparent clouds are from Terragen (the Halo screenshot only had the starscape and Halo) that I added in after putting the shot together, and then I darkened it a considerable amount. I think it turned out very well. ^_^

Halo is copyright Bungie and Microsoft and whoever else owns it... I did not ask permission to use their assets, but since I do not plan on selling, I hope it will be okay. (To be safe, I give up all rights to this image, heh.)
