I Make Door: Update #2

I couldn't resist doing a better lit screencap

I Make Door: Update #1

I Make Door

I've come to terms with myself that the past year was "technical learning". Now that I've finally got all the skills I need, I'm going to start practicing. First off, is this nice looking door. I'm taking it slow and deciding to start small. I think it's turning out good. The screenshot is inside of Unreal 3 and is only a normal map and I'm using my ambient occlusion bake as a temporary texture.

It's Been A Rough Year

Although I've made progress with my 3D studies, 2008 has been a rough year. I think it's safe to say that the past few months is going to go down as the worst time in my life. That's why I haven't posted since October. I don't really want to talk about it.... it's been a rough year.
