Subject: the "planet" behind the spartans hidden secrets!!

has anyone else noticed that the background looks actually more like a "fish-eye" view of the horizon. on the right is a mountain and a stream, a sun, and on either side of the spartans are some covenant ships, and on the left are some more mountains. i mean, i think its pretty clear that those are covenant ships floating around.

srry if this is already posted up but check it out.


edit: ok im pretty positive that it is indeed a skyline not planet.

ya this makes it even more obvious because you can see the ships glassing the planet underneath them. Thanks!

That leaves the question:

What does it represent?

The face of a Spartan?

yea iv known since the banner first came out

Wow, I never noticed that. Now that I've taken a closer look at it, I think it is pretty sweet how the planet perspective blends into the ground perspective. The sun can be both rising above the mountains behind the spartans or coming around the orbit of the planet, and the ships can be both glassing the planet from orbit or glassing it in the sky above the spartans. Pretty sweet!
