What's Going On In My World Currently!

Simple Crate.

May 11, 2014

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I decided to take a shoot at a basic crate, I remember being told if you can make a simple box look good, you can make anything look good. Total poly of 54 and textures size 512x512 with, diffuse+ao, normal, spec. Also added 3D turnaround but using a new provider SketchFab, this has allot more options for texture maps but lacking embedding customization.

Lost And Found

May 2, 2014

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After my spring clean I came across an old memory stick. The content of the stick was allot of old university files and projects. Seeing as the Form Wars spiders were missing the entire pre-production I decided to start there first and make the most of my spare time this week. So check out the link to the updated page Here to see the new juicy content. The rest of the projects and files I hope to update soon but with more projects on the horizon this may we awhile, but return shortly for the next great project.

Default Dan Sneak Peak

January 16, 2014

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check out the images of Default Dan in this post to see the new art work that I have been working on. The layout and assets are still very work in progress and may change. If you are wondering how the art is done then I shall reveal. The assets are modelled in full 3D then sculpted for their smooth finish. Finally using a orthographic camera to render the art out to fit into the crazy world of Default Dan.

For the seamless backgrounds I have coded a basic program into Game Maker to test the tiling and see how the parallaxing looks with the various layers.
