          Your imagination is something to be envied, and I can feel the passion you put into these.
          Stunning!

                      >> Thanks, Peter. Glad you like the Moss houses and kilns. It was fun building them as they are more organic than the usual architecture buildings.

                                Hello everyone,

                                I went to my archived files and I digged out one of my first tasks working on the MMO Rift. It was back in early 2006, almost 7 years ago.

                                The first image is the conceptual model that was approved by the Art Director, although I kind of like the second one which is a little bit more fantasy.

                                Have a great day!

                                The approved conceptual model from 2006 was later re-used and redesigned into a different fortress about two years later. I did post some images earlier in this thread. But this is the one I was referring to in case you have not seen it.

                                  Hello everyone,

                                  I went to my archived files and I digged out one of my first tasks working on the MMO Rift. It was back in early 2006, almost 7 years ago.

                                  The first image is the conceptual model that was approved by the Art Director, although I kind of like the second one which is a little bit more fantasy.

                                  Have a great day!

                                  The approved conceptual model from 2006 was later re-used and redesigned into a different fortress about two years later. I did post some images earlier in this thread. But this is the one I was referring to in case you have not seen it.

                                      I suspect my rate of work will drop off significantly when this game comes out...looks great
