3ds Max Alpha overlapping

Re: Evironment #2 new lighting attempts
Point well taken Adam. And props have been added. Still not sure how I'm going to render some of those effects yet.

Re: Programmning vs Artist in the Game Industry
Yay, a question I can actually help with. I started off learning how to do game art. I did some freelance work and I had a lot of fun. I picked up programming as a hobby, did some freelance work, and enjoyed it so much that I decided to major in it. It's certainly not for everyone. Even I am getting burned out on it… -
