Knj that looks great, love the forms and colours

They should make a game where the main character gets cancer and resorts to cooking crystal meth to fund his treatment.

Hello there good sir! I'm the newly appointed, opinionated troll. I moonlight as an environment artist.

Welcome to the boards.

Oh... I thought this was a fairly legitimate opinion haha! Other times I may... Have been trolling... But this time I am being completely serious. I much prefer the Battlefield 2 soundtrack (I absolutely love Battlefield 3 though!)

I don't think the BF theme tune was actually in BF2, except for maybe the epic MEC remix. I just love these sort of songs, brings back so many memories!

I've had the same email.... Hmmmm?

What on earth have they done to the Battlefield theme tune?!

None of those tracks are anywhere near as good as anything on the Battlefield 2 soundtrack

For now I'm just going to do the diffuse, I can't really be bothered with spec/norm atm Just want to do plenty of texture practice. I will at some point though!

Here's this morning's texture WIP, got a lot left to do on it:

yeah of course, ea is secretly taking all your info, this is going to be the start of a new reich. all headed up by the few million people who bought bf3 for pc.start steam, click add non-steam game, and look what it does. it scans looking for relevant files. origin has been shown to scan files it thinks are relevant, looking for ea games, but it doesn't send anything of any value back to ea.

WHATEVER DUDE! You're part of the corporate machine, trying to steal away all of our personal information. Stop working for the man!!!!!!!!!

I kid.. Hook us up with a job at DICE would you?

Well it was either buy it on PC or buy it on 360 and play with all my mates? Pretty easy choice right there. Not gonna buy it on both, I'm waiting for Skyrim on PC ;D

Also... The campaign in this game sucks. Luckily nobody buys it for the campaign though!

Are you playing on console? Operation Firestorm is fucking amazing in 64 Conquest and 32 player Rush!

Playing on 360!

What are your tips for jets? Haven't spent that much time in them and I was never a jet-flyer in BF2.

Really hard in the beginning when you're facing jet aces that got everything unlocked

Hold out right to the last minute before you drop flares, don't drop them straight away.. And make sure you see enemy jets before they see you! Otherwise, it's pretty plain sailing.

With helicoptors, you have to be really quick and responsive with the controls to react to what's going on in the battlefield. Use buildings and other vertical structures as cover if somebody locks on to you as well.

Just finished playing Battlefield all weekend with some guys I went to uni with who came to stay... We literally only left the house 2/3 times, just to get more beer and food. The game is amazing, I've racked up about 20 hours already and I am DEADLY in a chopper and the jets

My favourite maps are... Grand Bazaar, Seine Crossing, and believe it or not... Operation Metro. Operation Firestorm is boring as hell, that Canals one is rubbish, and so is Kharg Island.. Damavand Peak is ace, I love the base jumping bit. Good job guys

Thanks guys

I didn't think I was going to finish it at work but I got it done with 10 mins to spare! Here's the finished version:

Yeah I completely agree, using photos is awesome and essential, but we are just doing this to work on our traditional painting skills and force ourselves to see how materials are up. It's fun doing hand painted stuff

Thanks HP, should be working now!

Let's try that again then.. Hehe!

We've been doing some texture practice at work, trying to re-create photos by just hand-painting in Photoshop, not using any photos or textures as overlays. Here's my WIP so far (mostly worked on the bottom as you can see):
