Alright. Where'd you get this picture of me?

But looking pretty sweet so far. Like the shields.

From your Mom, of course. She says "hi."

Hi Em-8ER fans!

We have some news to share. First the low poly of the Omniframe is done and Joe is now UV unwrapping the model in preparation for painting it.

Joe will also be live streaming a demonstration of how we use Substance Painter to texture a sci-fi crate for the game. Stream will be Sunday, 6pm-8pm on Joe's YouTube channel:

Meanwhile we have been working on Kaiju concepts for the Kaiju that will attack the THMPR in the playable mockup. We based our ideas around this little guy:

So the first round of sketches, we came up with a few variants:

The one on the right, with six legs, was what we went with, but we wanted to have it rear up on its hind legs to fight the THMPR and be able to grab and punch.

We also needed to add its shield generator and other Tsi-Hu tech, including a mouth cannon. The Tsi-Hu heavily modify their Kaiju. So we ended up with this:

The shield here isn't going to be the final one. The final shield will be invisible until hit, and more closely follow the contours of the body shape.

Next up is the color studies for this little beastie. We will post those soon.

Thanks and see you in Joe's stream this Sunday!

Are you good with front-end web graphic design? I'm looking for someone who can do photoshop mockup and, even better, mockups in Foundation. If you only work in basic HTML and photoshop, that's okay too.

Post links to your work here. Must have prior experience. This is for the login portal for people so they can see their perks and milestones.

Look I get that we want to have sexy women in the game. I am ALL for it. But seriously..... The HUGE BOOBAGE in that skin tight suit is just....... And while there are some DAMN FINE women serving in the military world over.... I do not think many would agree with that body suit.

I get that it is 'concept' art, but here is the thing a 'concept' to final depends on the overall reactions of those viewing it. It is the opinions of the masses that help steer concept to final release(with some overriding factors from devs). I am fine with a suit like the one the chick is wearing as a casual suit worn outside of combat but that just does not work for a combat suit.

We can have sexualization of women in the game without exposing 1/3rd of their titties just to attract a crowd of men and even some women.

Well you've come to the wrong place for political correctness. That's all I have to say in that.

Maybe we need to tell Grummz to stop having the characters modeled after himself then. Not every man has that big of toucher-feelers.

If it was up to him we'd had navels riding robot navels fighting monster navels.
