Hello all! Well, this is an idea i had long time ago and it never saw the light so this seems a good opportunity to do it :) . Xerath was one of my main champ in the game so im very fond of it. The idea its quite simple...a new skin, a spirit of an ancient samurai. So far im working on the stage, pose, etc, the basics...i…
Maybe I'm too culturally sensitive... but I love studying other cultures. I've built up a lot of respect for other cultures and tend to get a little worked up at times. You should see me with Native American stuff! 'Kokopeli isn't supposed to have a flute! It's his penis, he's a symbol of fertility!' And definitely don't…
haha, thanks Andrew. I'll post a newer version of it. I'm going to finish the hair, and then the dragon. Since I work all day, and dota item at night.. there gonna be some long nights ahead! Heres some wip shots. I took what spudnik said into consideration about the presentation. I was planning to present this dragon…
Thanks a lot jessica! Unfortunately my art is pretty weak in every respect EXCEPT charming faces. But, hopefully, always improving! I threw together a little wordpress site, finally, since i havent ever had a portfolio online. In the process i found a few old pieces that i never posted in here -- this ANCIENT gun and some…
yes I have a postcard with these little clay thingies on. I don't think it is seen as sacrilidge, same as us digging up ancient burial sites from the egyptian, inuit and celt peoples. We are just having an explore! Interesting thing in animal crossing just as you can dig things up, you can also bury things - with very…
This shouldnt be your final piece, and definately does not look like a chair to me..it looks like an ancient dresser table. If you are using 3ds max there are tutorials in the help menu that can help you tweek this model out. Nice attempt though, for the next time, provide the wireframe of your model, do not set the bump…
Here are a few references I used as inspiration for my project. On one side there are references of ancient mesopotamian architecture, be it sumerian, babylonian or persian - I decided to use a mix of all the styles to get a feeling of grandieur and richness of space; and some concept art I found on the internet that…
PolyHertz: You don't think that they wouldn't release a patch years down the road making it nigh free-ware? Most companies do this. When the game becomes "ancient", and as the support for it dwindles away, they release patches that reduce the restrictions upon installation, or start handing out the CD-keys. I highly doubt…
So many good mentions here. Tie Fighter had an awesome Atmosphere, LucasArts just wasn't able to miss back in the day :D. Since Monkey Island is already mentioned ( i hope it means the whole series ;) ), i'll throw into the mix : Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis BattleZone ( not the ancient one ) Tetris ( ;P )…
Been learning alot from, sorry about resurrecting an ancient thread, but i was wondering - how do you handle the atmosphere and clouds if your staticmesh has multiple elements. Reason im asking is because im working on a planet thats basically cube mapped, with 6 different textures for a high resolution result. Im thinking…
