Great thread :) Just wanted to pop in here and give you guys a friendly warning, if some of you might be considering taking meds: My sister suffers from manic depression and has been prescribed various meds over time, but one med was pure horror for her: duloxetine (usually called Cymbalta). There have been lawsuits etc.…
Yes! Best RTS ever, if you ask me. I think you're best off with the original one if you have to pick, it has the two most interesting factions and the best campaign (though you'll only be playing the Americans there). CoH+OF is a good deal too. Tales of Valor has interesting gameplay modes but doesn't add any new factions,…
hey! I said i won't crit so my crtis do not clash with your mentor's... but I can't stay away as long as I have some info that might be useful. XD Anyway like I i said in a previous post elves are skinny humans with pointy ears. So take a profile picture of a person and look where the skull meets the neck, where the ears…
Not many painters or graphic artists pull out a french curve when trying to draw straight lines in perspective. We pull out the straight edge ruler. It's not just because it's easier, it's because perspective distortion gives a specific effect that makes you feel uneasy or thrown off. It's used more in images of horror or…

We wanted to go with a high contrast lighting because the genre was supposed to be survival horror. Although that's not really an excuse because a dark blue light could have been used instead of pitch black. It was my intention to use a smoother stone on the ground of the cave to give a "path" like feel and some variation.…
Try and find images of towns that where made into lakes or dams. I did a search for waterworld since that movie had some nice shots of cities under the ocean. Think of movies that had scenes that showed these, if you get the dvd you might be able to get some good ref off that. I can't remember any names of horror/suspence…
Beautiful stuff, I've been meaning to make time to say so for a while. I always like that your fantasy stuff has an oily opulence to it, it probably reminds more people of Frazetta and Boris than can put a name to the origin of that familiarity. It works well for you though, theres always a rich sense of mythology that…
Hi everybody! Polygon Madness Studio is an Italian group from Milan and we

game with horror & thriller elements with Unreal Engine 4, with a strong
will to differentiate from other titles by offering a more dynamic and engaging
gameplay. The working…
Here's a cool talk from the Art Director, Ian Milham, on Dead Space 2. http://gdcvault.com/play/1014368/Beyond-Horror-Art-Directing-DEAD It's an interesting talk. It pretty much confirms everything I thought about the move from Dead Space to Dead Space 2 and now 3. I think that although the games have improved in terms of…
