Jump Productions in association with 343 Industries and Axis Animation are
delighted to present the Halo® 4: Spartan Ops animated teaser which was revealed

Spartan Fireteams prepare for deployment to the Forerunner world known as
Requiem.

I'm really glad I walked into the shop that day, where I paged through that issue of ImagineFX, and discovered you.
These are really cool. i see they also adopted your style of oversized helmets for the flight deck teams in the background. great project. congrats.
I would pay good money for a comic drawn in this style. Very cool.
Planet Cool.
Honestly, I'd prefer if the animation is done exactly by using your art style/board here.... it looks much cooler
