Halo 3 Love – Weapons Style
A young Halo fan has recreated all the weapons in Halo 3 – out of cardboard and tape. This video shows him modeling each of them, using gestures and motions that are eerily similar to what your character does online. Amazing amount of work! Thanks, xxjuicesxx.(Louis Wu 14:41:12 UTC)
