Alright! A few weeks ago I took a hard look at where I was at in therms of my skill set and well why I had not landed a job somewhere. I cam to the conclusion of a few things. * My environments were too empty * My material definition was off * My high poly modeling skills were not up to par All of these things directly…
This is a dream collection. It physically hurts how awesome it is. It has 7 titles that I'm aware of, but that photo below only shows 6. Haikei Gashuu Kusanagi Literally, "the Kusanagi books of background art." It's a book series. The name in kanji is 背景画集 草薙. Amazon.jp Search (entire collection) Contains environment…
The idea of a "buy nothing" day does seem pretty misguided. It's like attempting to solve the obesity epidemic with an "eat nothing" day. The point being, the answer to obesity isn't anorexia; it's education about healthy eating habits and a fundamental shift in one's lifestyle. Likewise, the answer to wasteful and…

Picked it up over the weekend. Haven't done any season or online multiplayer stuff with it yet, but my friend and I played multiplayer together and had a riot.

Hoping we have some enthusiasts out there?? Need: -Front Suspension Fork (Ride over poor quality roads/potholes) -All Weather Larger…
I have added in some decals to the medieval scene which I think helps it feel that bit more lived in. I also decided to change the oak leaf texture as the original one had far too much lighting information in it and was pretty unusable. The decals I added in are track marks for the carts, horse hoof prints, loose hay and…
Don't take this the wrong way, but I can't help but think that it feels a bit too grounded. It feels devoid of "freak." If you look at the body types of WoW characters, they each more or less have some form of cartoonish exaggeration. I kinda think that the cart is being put before the horse in this scenario. You're trying…
I found a small camp of two super mutants near Jury Street Metro camping out in a bunch of shipping containers. So I shot them up real good from a hill over-looking the camp. When I get down there I start looting the place and notice a teddy bear standing up inside one of those shopping cart cages the super mutants keep…
