Elemental - Vig- Earth

Mark Dygert

After getting fed up with not being able to work with any kind of normal mapping technology at work, and playing too much WoW when I am at home. I have decided to get back on the wagon and toss my hat back in the ring. I am not sure if I will finish the textures in time but I aim to finish it never the less!

Concept: I added the giant mushroom from the older concept

I have it unwrapped, but I can't get all this normal mapping crap working right. SOOOoOoo I am going to skin it like normal in the two days I have left and hope that is enough (because it won't). I normally would have no issue with this but I can't work with normal maps in my down time at work. So I get about 3-4 hours (if I am lucky) a week to work on them at home =(

My slight addiction to WoW doesn't play into this... I'm not addicted, I can stop any time. It's free, whats wrong with playing a free MMO? Its not like it hurts anyone?

Well this is as far as I can get by the dead line. Still quite a bit of texture work left to go. The textures need much lovin, and I need to still create the normal maps. I have learned so much by doing this, and have learned I have much more to learn.

I want to finish this model, even if it won't be done in time. I blame WoW for my lack of progress over these many days. Can't point the finger at my horrible miss management of time...
