Really nice work. I think you captured the artist style of African patterns.

Ty-

REALLY NICE! I would love to see this move. Or perhaps a whole comic book in this style would really be awesome.

Great work, I like this direction.

Actually, to tell you the truth, I think more games should look towards this kind of stylization. I think it could really shake things up as far as video game visuals go. Too often I think video games go straight for the hyper-realism.

thanks guys

josh--thanks, yea the composer is like a "jack" of all trades isnt he? Every episode is so diff. than the one before it, yet th emusic always fits the feel of whatever is happening, pretty talented people over there. now there going to do an episode 2 cartoon series, which should be good.

Luis--thx-- i was trying too:D

Iwasink--YAY!


Mutton--Thanks. Couldnt agree more about games. this is what i was talking about ---really pushing the medium more artistically, get more abstract. Yea--how would this game look in 3-d? i m not sure but id be curious to try ya know? glad youre feeling it.
