Here I will post some of the things that happened to me in the recent chronological continuum, specifically in the realm of Photoshoppery, which is part of the reason why I've been on a super sicrit mega training montage hiatus.

Though really, it's just my real life part time job that took me away from everything that's been going on here. (And no, it's not related to art or games and I've had no super sicrit training whatsoever - just some spare time, self reflection, and resources the Internets has to offer. :P )

I sort of put this in a way of reporting what I've been up to in the long time I was away. All contents below are haphazard practice attempts:

(these guns aren't exactly functional from a design standpoint)

AND LASTLY FOR ALL THE FANGS OUT THERE:

And that's all for now. :B There are only two other places I have an audience at any rate - DeviantART, and an evil social networking site that is too well-known and used for its own good. Other than that - I am thinking of making this very thread my own sort of personal sketchbook for now - if that's actually fine with everyone else here because for all I know, the 'blatant' part might be taken a little too seriously by some.

I forgot this last one... 3ds Max! (The background was Photoshoppery)

I've learned! But I can only do models that have triangles countable with fingers!

I'll put more stuff here in this thread as soon as I'm able to do new ones. :D

On other news, I think I might have missed out on something really important here because I have a bad habit of disappearing for months at a time without warning. That I apologize for.

I've never been paid for any of this. :P I have never worked for anyone with the goal of doing graphics like this except for one instance with close acquaintances.

No idea about that since I've never played the UC series nor do I remember the sniper rifle in U2 - these guns, however, are very well inspired by Borderlands weapons (which in turn were inspired by intermarried Nerf guns and real life guns). Some guy from some other place told me it looked like a plastic Dragunov. :P

They are really pretty. I'd love to see some full size ones which are usable as wallpapers

Thanks! :D Well, I'm proud to have worked hard for whatever I have now - we're pretty much all in the same boat when it comes to nurturing. I don't personally believe 100% in the idea of giftedness in that some people simply do it better because of some unknown force from the Immaterium or something. :B Although I take to it I'm not anywhere masterful just yet.

Higher resolution versions of everything can pretty much be found on my dA account here. :P Although only very few of these look good as wallpapers due to how little I concentrated on how they look when they're actually viewed in full resolution. The ones I'll be posting from now on though will have higher resolution versions linked.

So here's something new fresh off the factory!

Scrapyard of ships against the backdrop of exceptionally bright nebulae. :B

Some time ago I was thinking of having a map involving low grav that took place inside a destroyed ship - technically the player was in a space suit being assaulted by whatever also managed to make a house out of the derelict. There'd be lots of moments navigating the outside hull of the ships and navigating corridors that have been gutted out from the outside.

The idea of hi-jacking an enemy ship (like a Skaarj vessel maybe?) would also be nice while there's an exchange of missiles and lasers between two vessels in a deadly version of volleyball. :P

I'm in love with your works... If you'd paint them on a canvas... Definitely first to land in my living room XD
