So I'm moving into my second year of study which requires me to choose which modules I will do and although I enjoy characters I have decided to choose hard surface and environmental modelling as my modules. I thought I'd try to get ahead on that and try and create an environment inspired by Eddie Mendoza's piece: Atlas…
