Re: Dungeon Masters... again

It is a shame and saddens me while leaving me .. bored? -maybe I would like to have a DM on iphone but I won´t certainly use this crap.

Re: Dungeon master VS legend of grimrock

I did not got around to playing LoG, sorry . "So take this with a grain of Salt" so yet I have watched some videos, and found the spore cloud effect quite nice. Graphically, more precisely the 3D stuff of that game was what has been needed for what will possibly even become a revival of ga...

Re: Dungeon Masters... again

Well, what can I say? It was maybe just a matter of time for this "in almost all parts disdainful thing" to happen. Back then all Game creators (I suspect) had a tendency to copy from one another.. DM got copied by EotB and so on.. same in art? maybe that is what people do and how things e...

Re: Questions about DSB/ESB

how about making the object avoid the monster?
for that, maybe look at the special axe in the Test Dungeon, which flies all but straight.
possibly manageable to tweak it to evade monsters..

Re: more DM character paints

It is good you use a kind of a gradient on the background. Seen this on other portraits as well. So the background wraps aroudn the light areas of the face and the dark areas of the face(juxtaposition). Know what I mean. I can only second what the others posted. Very cool.
