I've been making a lot of it up as I go along and am letting it make itself whenever I can. I've loosely defined some stuff, but haven't decided what their stats would represent. It's all rough and very place holder that I am toying with. I'm going at creating a foundation for something at a very relaxed pace, I'm in no…
Steady progress is great! Keep it coming! Some Feedback: - Your image still needs more light focus in my opinion - some textures really appear blurry (exit signs above the door, vitals on the display) I believe you can get so much more out of this picture with less diffuse lighting.

Art is already so difficult; if we just push ourselves a little more, learning how to create a full game from scratch in unreal engine is really not a stretch goal. Who needs animators, programmers, etc - when artists these days are…
Careful, we're getting into some serious intellectual and philosophical heavy-lifting territory if we're debating whether interpretation changes the actual event. :poly142: You've got a great point about artist intent not always being audience perception... Heck, if that wasn't the case, I doubt we'd hear Green Day's Time…
