Universities offering to teach students how to be game developers is a growing trend. But Not all schools are going to offer programs that teach the right stuff, the right way. I get up on my Guildhall soapbox regularly. I'm there again. I want you guys to see the trailers that the two teams of graduating students (Summer…
Thanks for the comments! audi100 - you are correct, the leg initially was bent really bad. I tried fixing it but by then I had lost interest on the piece. hahaha I tried hiding some of the flaws with the depth blur. Ok now for a change of pace, I really love typography.

The argument that the building was imploded. "People who have seen a building imploded" should ALSO know that when they implode a building, they take out all the glass on the levels where the detonations will be going off. Why?

You know what I've loved the most about this contest? It was a reminder of the old days, where Polycount was based around the PPM - plugin player model - for the Quakes and Half-Life. It's been a nice ride and I hope we can do it again some time. And with that, we now have just under 11 hours left in the Team Fortress 2:…
