The sky I painted by looking at a boatload of reference. This tutorial helped a ton as well: http://www.androidblues.com/cloudtut.html It's really just playing around with colors and figuring how to make the sky help accentuate the work you're trying to show off. I didn't want my scene to be to busy. I'd suggest something…
Lost in the sauce of the flying spaghetti monster This one is the 3rd version of the turret generator with actual UV coordinate calculation. There are some seam problems between sections and isn't optimized to my liking, so I guess back to the drawing board. Delicious tracks. It's the first time actually using function…
Big update here! I forgot to upload my original moodboard earlier, and while it served its purpose, I think I'll be compiling a more specific one soon. While concepting I realized that witch could be a pretty broad idea - ranging from a cute garden witch, to a traditional witch, to a voodoo witch and more. So I narrowed my…
You're trying to chew more then you can swallow. Rather then working on 3 levels focus on one only and do it properly. It's still a monster task for just one short summer since you'll do all the modeling and texturing aswell. As for your workflow, it's looking good. Only thing is lighting and post process is usualy the…
when I was your age (holy crap I'm old enough to say that now), I quit a traditional drawing class because I "already knew how to draw," and 15 years later I regret it. You might learn a lot of things that don't seem to relate to what you want to be, but some of those fundamentals, or even some of those random other…

The only thing the media does is put these negative events first in our minds and make us afraid. They fill people with negativity and fear so that we buy into the propaganda, the advertising, and follow the political leaders that promise us a false sense of safety. We're a nation of quivering babies cowering in the corner…
Thank you all for your kind words, it means a lot to me <) @monster : Thanks for the name input! I'm not an expert at cool thuggish english names X) I don't know if I'm gonna rename him but Rosko sounds quite good @pmiller001: 8 ball ftw! I loved the secondary meaning of the 8 ball design, it makes him a little bit more of…
in Max Turbo smooth does this well too lol I feel ya though :thumbup: I often think as games progress more and more, and the art form itself becomes easier to express oneself, will losing techniques such as Uv mapping and 2d-texturing make the art better or will newer art pieces lose that "soul" that I tend to feel when I…
