Feels good, man

I love those designs that emphasize lower body strength and mobility.

Definitely. The build of the female in Monster Hunter fits the bill, as well:


And on that subject, Monster Hunter in general has awesome armor designs. Agnaktor is one of my favorites:

SCV is not his finest moment though. He used to be hot.

I know it's an out of game render, but still... let us weep for the lost hotness.

Don't forget that he's, like, 20 years older in V (Almost 50!)

Hey, check it out. A day/night cycle.

Still working on the first area of the overworld, Gran Forest.





And here's the entrance to Gran Hollow:

Flannel? That's so indie.

I think you would do well to have a read of this:

Is that Alucard if he were an armour-ninja?

The chunkiness makes it look like one o' dem show dogs with the really thick fur on the legs.

Meanwhile:

Swag, eh?

I think you're right about the need for more clarity on the characters. As I said, I'll be having that shader made, so I'll see what can be done about that.

And then there was Celeste:

Those guys are pretty awesome, Jackson. I like all of the details you've painted in, although I think they need more contrast in a few areas that blend together, like the Elk's torso and cape.

Thank'eh, Stib.


Van's been enhanced:



And I've been messing with a painterly overlay, and replacing the abstract environment textures with painted ones:




I still need to redo the environments and the sky.

The impact in the last one looks really nice, Moonlight.


It's amazing what some mottled lighting will do for a forest scene:
