I think I heard something about that. It's a while ago but there waas this blog post about ealouse or something about questionable practices in the mythic studio.
hey Brian, I am not opposed to redoing it, this is just a practice piece for me and if it looks really good in the end maybe it will also a portfolio piece as well.
Great initiative Hazardous! If the guys who participate during this, document there work it would be pretty helpful to everyone else. Consider it practice for when your in a job ;)
