Fooled?

Post by Chuc »

While the whole Reality Studios merger deal was a farce, the artwork linked to in the announcement wasn't :mrgreen: As a little concession for having a good laugh at the April Fool, here are some wallpaper versions of the painting.

1280x1024

For those that don't know aside from my involvement with the mod as animator and 3D texture artist, I'm an aspiring concept artist and 2D animator. As part of my education I'm taking a one year exchange trip to Japan (beginning in just 2 days!) for language exposure and also a chance to gather as much information about the industry there, as it's a sort of guilty dream of mine to work in anime and Japanese games.

My planned retirement from modding is a way of saying that I'd like to change my focus, however that's not to say that what I learned during my time with Project Reality has been for nothing.


It's hard to believe that I started with these little kit icons -

http://www.realitymod.com/forum/f388-pr ... ary-2.html

To end up with having re-animated every single weapon, item and piece of equipment in the game..

I learned a lot of valuable lessons when it comes to dealing with people, other artists as good as me, and also working as a team with coders, sound artists, modellers, texturers and graphic artists on a complete and wholesome gaming package that is PR:BF2. I've made a lot of friends and contacts both in the modding and gaming realms, got interviewed via podcast and magazine on a few occasions, but the real reward comes in seeing hundreds if not thousands of people enjoying the game that I had helped to make.

And for that I say thank you :mrgreen: Till we meet again.

For anyone curious, most of my other work is on my portfolio site @

Hey chuc thanks for everything!

before you go, show us some animations (Single level, classical) I remember a single level one you showed the testers ages ago.

Good luck with your journey.

aaa the best lie is when you mix a bit of truth in it xD
There is only one unforgivable lie That is the lie that says, This is the end, you are the conqueror, you have achieved it and now all that remains is to build walls higher and shelter behind them. Now, the lie says, the world is safe.? The Great Khan.

40k is deep like that.

Nah, have fun in Japan and stay safe, a bit dangerous over there at the moment.

Thank you for everything!

Hey that's a pretty awesome picture!

But it should've showed up in the front page (at least it didn't for me :( ) would've added to the epicness and trick factor :D
Guys, when a new player comes, just answer his question and go on your merry way, instead of going berserk! It's THAT simple! :D
