I sent the first two out to the US winners. The UK and Russian winners will go out tomorrow. I need to pack them in a larger box so that Fed Ex can attach all the necessary paperwork to each one.
WarrenMarshall: It says film school in beginning so i'm guessing that's for film. And for the reel it looks really good one thing is tho that i don't know if the leaves stay on the ivy when its winter i think they might fall off like on trees?
Awesome stuff Monster. Been slacking this year but with the crappy winter almost done might step my game up too. Sitting now at 197 so under 200! Hit my year goal at least. Hoping to lose another 25 ish
Hboybowen: yeah but I'm movin at the end of may... I'll be back next winter though :) gibson: You got me, it's drugs. My art was bland and lifeless until I discovered the wonders of jenkem. [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UsNbsjpuLc[/ame]
I think the logs being straight is ok if its a clean fireplace and hasnt been lit yet - spending winter in a cottage I always stack the logs as tidy as possible, they are only all over the place after the fire has been burning a while
Thanks. You are absolutley right about summer tires. They looks too clean. But winter tires - it was demand of my art director. After I made "inside snow" he told me "No, we make outside snow on our models. It looks better in your game".
I go past this garden on my way to work every day which has suffered during the winter storms. I thought it looked perfect as the base for a zombie apocalypse concept so that's what I spent the last 3 or 4 hours doing. Original Concept
OK, vacation is over and it's back to work! Next up is going to be a modular environment with some nice architecture and some foliage. We toured the Biltmore Estate in Asheville last week and I love the Winter Garden there. So that's what I'm going to work on next. Mood board:
We have done some tests today with the cry and Unreal -engine day and night System. The cryengine day and night System seems to be the better one. Maybe it is a funny question but is there something like a season sytsem ??? Would be nice to have a Switch from summer to winter time :-)
Looks like they've made some progress on the winners, just not yet though. 8 out of 15 of the Top 3D artists went to Polycount. Yay Polycount. Not sure how long we'll wait for the winners to be announced but at least there's movement. :thumbup: http://www.unearthlychallenge.com/2009/prefinals.php
