Created an entire town!

Still struggling with the whole play too much and not enough creation time, but I have managed to impose some discipline and get things done here and there lol.

Here are some basic houses I finished. You can make some variations with that side piece but I went a little further and did one more:


By the end the people I was working with are like: Man you practically have created this entire town by yourself! Well, I try, I always beat myself up about not working enough but when I do work I seem to get it done pretty efficiently.

That is the bulk of what I have been doing. Still doing some odds and ends for the other game like cabinet animations and sinks and such. Also looking to get back to some character models a bit soon. As for my own game I got a lot of the world map pretty much laid out!
Ignore the really bad looking collision boxes, those won't be visible in the actual game lol. It is starting to come together nicely, though that cursed feature creep is trying to bog me down. I am like: alright lets get some more actual gameplay that I have planned out in before I go doing things like items, treasure, or more skills. I got a guy that can fight monsters for now, lets make more places to fight them and stuff!

Survived BDO

So I still managed to get some work done despite black desert trying to suck me in, I think I have it under control now lol. So here we have a dead person for one game:
Not too bad on the details though I feel I could clean it up a bit more it works for now. This got put off a lot due to distractions and various things just getting in the way. I also have a male version of the corpse on deck, but taking a break from it for a bit to work on more animation stuff.

Next up I came back to an old model and saw just how much I have improved. Talk to a project lead and show him this tavern I had shelved.

 He was like: I like it lets use it! Turns out it was shelved because of a lot of issues and I spent the rest of the day fixing them and optimizing/improving textures. The end result was much better and well worth the time imo:
 Still a lot of stuff going on, so look forward to more updates in a week or two!
