I’ve been itching to make some revisions to the already-published parts of At War’s Edge for quite a while. For the most part, I’ve been resisting that itch successfully. Until now. It is normal, I think, to want to improve your old work. At War’s Edge launched four years ago…
So, At War’s Edge will be restarting on Aug 21st rather than August 14th, because something relatively major did in fact come up. It turned out that — who would’ve thought — getting to a ball in late winter requires some winter clothing. And preferably not the kind of winter…
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but the preproduction for the ballroom scene is… basically done? Including even the statues in the Gallery of the Spirits.I expect there will be some minor details to fix during production, but if nothing goes majorly wrong, I’m aiming to restart “At War’s Edge” on…
Time for the mid-July art update 🙂 The ballroom is pretty much done – I just need to add some food and drinks to the tables. So, this week I’m planning to focus on the aforementioned food and the hallway statues, 7 out of which are still missing. If all…
Art update time! Good news is, I convinced my computer to render the ballroom scene with all 30+ high-poly characters in it. (Ok, more like medium-poly characters. Still, there’s over 2.5M vertices in the scene and the computer took a lot of convincing). Bad news is, I still need to…
Hey, I’m actually back with an art update barely two weeks later 🙂 In these two weeks I’ve been mostly working on characters. Not surprisingly, the ballroom scene needs a lot of characters. I haven’t started on the low-poly background characters yet, but I did some math and I’ll be…
Oof, it’s been a while since the last art update. I apologize. I’ve made some good progress in May: the ballroom of the Reulga city hall is pretty much finished, and I’m ready to start really focusing on the characters – the guests, and the staff, and I still have…
Reporting on the art progress for the last couple of weeks. I temporarily left the environment alone and worked on the characters. Because yeah, it’s a ball, and there will be a ton of new characters. And not all of them are completely background characters =) The ones I got…
Reporting on the art in progress for the last couple of weeks. I didn’t report last Monday, but there is, in fact, progress 🙂 The city hall exterior is very nearly done: There may be some changes required once I figure out the interior layout though, which is what I’m…
As promised, I’m reporting on last week’s art in progress. I’ve been working on the exterior of the Reulga city hall, and I’m pretty happy with where it’s going, although it’s not anywhere near done yet. Yeah, turns out, landscape design is hard. Especially when you’re inadvertently worldbuilding along the…
