I haven't posted any updates in awhile but I've been steadily revamping my assets for my upcoming game. Right now most of the models are untextured except for the terrain. In this shot bellow I'm aiming for a more retro look. Think of Mechwarrior 2 meets Exo-squad. I plan to experiment a bit more with the idea of a FPS/RTS concept. Eventually I will make proper post that will detail every aspect of my game idea. It will blend elements from my favorite science fiction and PC games such as Battlezone 2 which was a big motivator in getting me involved in the the art of game design.

I grew up watching the shows like Battletech and playing Mechwarrior (later Earthsiege even more) a lot on my Windows 95 desktop. Although Exosquad was favorite show of that era. The intro still pumps me up even at 28 years old. My influences inspired by many 80's and 90's cartoons.

I love the artwork.

Thanks. It takes many lonely hours to come up with this kind of stuff. :)

More random stuff I made. My creative juices are really unleashed when listening to Joy Division and Alan Parons project and other good music. Giger is also a huge inspiration for me if its not obvious. So far I have about 7 near complete creature designs. Textures and animations are still a way off though but boy can modeling suck away time!


For some reason I had the idea to turn this into a Album cover:


Giger-ish:

Like the style. Looks like alien sea monsters.

Regarding your youtube link all I get is "not supported in your country" :'(

The 'album cover' one has definitely got something. I like it.

What the hell is wrong with youtube? Yeah I'm seeing that now also.

Turn speakers way up and bass for maximum effect.

Music only version.

I had to put down the Giger books for a bit. I was starting to have really strange dreams! :D
