crits and comments always welcome, however I cant really do anything with the crits, but hey its good to hear them anyhow.

thanks.

edit: o and I was a texture artist on this project...so besides geo tweaks. the models were created by the amazing artists here at NaughtyDog, and I did the texture/shader work.

Nice work Darcy. You did a great job w/ the spec and all the mud on the vehicles. Congrats. Now go update your damn resume.

Every new web page I open says: "Untitled Document" you should prolly name those web pages so that is more consistent.

Nice items though

Hey Darcy some really great stuff dude. Its really inspiring to see where you were with your skills at school and how far you've come since working at ND. Looking at your new stuff, I couldn't help but notice a little inconsistency with the quality of your materials on a few of the models and feel the mud also could have used a little tweaking further to look that more convincing but overall its all really great and can't wait to see what you jump on next.

Hey Darcy Congrats man. Haven't talked with ya in a while. Anyways things look good man.

I know you can't do much about it but a lot of the models seem flat. Are they using normal maps? Some stuff just seems really inconsistent as far as the detail goes.

Did you guys build high poly models to get the normals from?

Same crits for everything else though but honestly man nice work and congrats again.

Some great work there:) and got a chance to see some of the characters on zbrushcentral from the game. Everything looks awesome, and really only one of the few titles on the PS3 that I am considering buying (xmas gift for myself) Thanks for sharing.

pliang: yea, thats just my top secret web coding so the cia can never catch me!

cory: thanks man, and yea ill defrinatly keep that in mind next time around...

spug: thanks, I appreciate it...was a fun project.

Jesse: thanks, and yea most all of them are using normal maps pulled from high rez models...it could just be the lighting, all these were just screen grabs from maya which is pretty much what they would look like in game. but will definatly push them more next time around.

Spark: thanks man. yea the character team here did a great job, and really great/knowledgable people to work with. was really pleased on how it came out.'
