July Sample: Rim Lighting
Jul 18th
I’m going to go on vacation soon, so I’m putting the July sample online. It’s not much, since I’ve been busy writing the Fur Rendering Tutorial, but I think it’s a nice effect.
The sample is dedicated to Rim Lighting, an effect seen in some "cute" games. Read more about it and get the source code here.
Fur Rendering in XNA
Jul 18th
My fur rendering article just went online on Ziggyware. It is an entry for the Summer Ziggyware XNA Article Contest, so if you like it, vote for it when voting begins, in a few days.
The article explains how to draw fur, animate it, and apply it on models.
You can read it here.
My new best friend
Jul 5th
I introduce to you my new best friend. I made him yesterday and today, and he’s my first organic creature modeled.
I still have some work to do on him, mostly texturing and tweaking (and maybe sometime in the far far away future even animations), but he will feature in my samples and tutorials from now on.
Here are some pictures of him showing off with some XNA effects:
You will hear from him more soon enough.
