Desert Enviro - Update 2 - More RAWKS!

A quick update. Was iterating on the rock formations last week, went through a few ups and downs but the current form seems interesting. The noise distribution is still outbalanced but I will fix it later.

I'm going to focus on either dry vegetation or some ground blends this week.

Desert Enviro - Update 1

I have been working on this scene for the last two weekends. The aim is to improve my organic modelling workflow. I started with creating the vista (still needs lots of love) in World Machine and now focusing on creating more detailed rock pieces in Zbrush. Will try to post an update once a week.

Feel free to share thoughts and tips!

This is not THE end, however. Like every guy who attempts to produce art I get nostalgic about my old pieces (older the pieces, the more attached I become). I will spare you my very first Golden Source projects (Half-Life 1 engine) but Source stuff goes right here:
