    I actually did this by hand. I had found some of the assets online 2 or 3 years ago and they sat on a HDD doing nothing for a while. I tried to find them again but couldn't. There are a few I made myself though (rushed but none the less) which were the Bruteshot, BR, and pistol. All you have to do is find a side PNG of that weapon (or cut out any surrounding image), do a color overlay of the image with a type of blue, then change the opacity of it. After that make an outline (center) to create the display-line effect. Make sure the outline is the bright blue like found on the HUD. After you have done that it should look pretty close to the actual references. Taking a step further would be tracing the actual HUD weapon icon from screenshots.

    I was going to do the whole map in this style but decided against it since I wanted to get my post made. Thanks for viewing though, and thanks for asking. If you have any other questions, just ask, I will be happy to respond! (Quicker this time)
