2 years since I updated this sketchbook!! Crossposting from my thread with this; it's a shot from Cryengine and a subsequent paintover to help define the direction I take with it, photomashing some additional elements from this concept by Andr
Thank you everyone! I appreciate all the help. I made the tree a bit more dense and made the leaves smaller. I added foreground elements. I will be getting more angles and screenshots soon but here it is:
This looks nice. Especially liked that control ring and absence of rig controls over the character. I always hated those control elements blocking the view, whyle also being sometimes harder than needed to select.
The biggest problem I see with the scene, is the lack of scale, I find it hard to judge the scale of the things, maybe because of the big nuclear sign or something. Might help when some more elements comes in or textures.
Here is a small update. I'm working on all the small modular elements, I've so far just about finished the armour stuff, all that remains is a couple of pockets that go on the vest/belt, and some head gear.
Wip of the Orbital Laser. Would like any feedback on the timing and colors so far. Having the timing down for target would help before moving on to the timing of the laser, blast and additional elements [vv]123025906[/vv]
One of the main playables in COD modern warfare 3 is 'Yuri', my name. Always a little weird to hear the characters yelling out to me during the game. "Yuri! Take out that chopper!", but actually a fun element.
ok so i set it up the way i like but when i change to say elements then back to polys the menus are not how i left them i guess this is just something i'll have to live with
Do you think it will get worse before it gets better? I heard about the BBC reporter and crew being attacked for no reason... I just can't fantom that. Other than the criminal elements want no cameras.
