Panzer Dragoon Saga

Panzer Dragoon Saga is a rpg made for the 32-bit Sega Saturn. The machine wasn’t so successful and the game was released just as the system was being taken out of rotation. So just 1600 games were physically made. But the game is a true master piece. There were three Panzer Dragoon games made for [...]

This post is about a book which I feel should belong to every serious 3d animator. The book I’m talking about is Stop Staring! (with exclamation mark) by Jason Osipa. I feel like I should point out to this book because it is becoming harder to buy, but definitely will give life to a animation [...]

Modern Warfare I am currently playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. While I love the story, production values, the weapons and the whole military feel. But I never actually feel like a hero. It is very hard to walk the wrong way, there is always someone to follow. Or when you walk the environment [...]
Pixel Art
by admin on Dec.09, 2009, under Portfolio Content
Pixel art is the concept of making 2d graphics with a limited amount of pixels and colors to make them. They mostly used this back in the old 16-bit and 8-bit computer days. Computers weren’t yet capable of high resolution graphics with loads of colors, but you were able to portray things graphically. Nowadays though [...]
