    decrease your ranking and you will loose any valuables you have picked up. this may make you a bigger target for other crusaders.

    Final - not really done, but a combination of GDC and final project at school prevented me from adding all the details I wanted to add. Sorry dark side...

    -Liking it a lot Blaz! Looking forward to seeing it develop..




    I wasn't feeling a lot of love on my last one, but I'll try again. Continuing a story.

    updated.. WIP2



    still no sign of falls, or thunder, but I blasted around the foliage.

    Liquid: Its come on fantastically. Best guardian I have seen so far!.. my 2 cents, push back the sky a touch and bring forward the front waterfalls a bit.. (possibly a bit of splash off rocks etc)

    Cool stuff all..


    Change of tact for me.. new comp, with the falls making it into the pic.



    Hopefully I will have time for one last blast tomorrow..

    Final

    While walking home this morning I got an idea for this, so if time allows I'll try to get something on paper.

    Actually, I'll probably have to choose sides but I like being just a headhunter. Would it be cool if I 'hired' my finished piece to whichever side is in need of another member and is willing to pay me some loot If there is no interest in paying me for my crap I'm buggered but I'll take that risk if it is allowed...

    Liquid Penguin - Maybe a bridge crossing on the top left? Seems a bit empty. A few small nondescript warriors crossing might allow a greater sense of scale as well.

    WIP updated: Feb.16

    "... the cliffs, falls, and sky ... it all rose up to stop us --suddenly it became clear why the crossing was called 'thunderfall.'"
