A minor update at the Scars of War blog, with Gareth showing a sun-drenched villa model coming together, starting with some concept art that didn't quite hit the mark. More information.
Hope Gareth will persevere with this enormous effort. What I learned about the game so far sure seems promising. Bu taking something like this on alone seems a daunting task at best, doomed at worst. I keep my fingers crossed.
@ Dagon : Art style is far more of a factor in determining what looks good and what doesn't than engine capability. A good artist can do wonders with even an old engine, and a bad artist can make the CryEngine look like crap. Not implying I'm a good artist, heh, but I do try my best.
