View source for Microsoft Source Art

The Microsoft Source Art was donated to the community by Pater Arisman in 2009.

==History==
In February 2009 [[Adaven]] contacted Peter Arisman (repete), MS Art Lead for Allegiance to see if any source artwork for the game was still available. Adaven received 32 compact disks covering the entire scope of the game's development artistically. This runs from early sketches and game design documents to the animation files used in the opening movie. Also found were photoshop .psd files of many textures.
