W.I.P. on Eve, our Female Avatar

Here are two more W.I.P. images of our Eve avatar. They are similar to our previous posting of the avatar’s head, but from a different angle. These enable you to see changes from one image to the next, to details and lighting, which make the avatar look more realistic.

These images are of a work in progress, representing only a single step during many stages of the development process. Nothing that is a “W.I.P.” is the final, finished product. (No movement or expression shown on these images, adding movement is a different stage in the avatar's development process.)

Woodland House Video

Exciting news!! (Drum roll please...)
Because so many are asking on our Facebook page, Twitter feed (@AtomRepublic) and the AU Forums, we can’t wait any longer and have decided to share with you a video of our Woodland House, and the environment surrounding it. We will still share images of the space with you over the next few weeks, but for now - ENJOY!

W.I.P. - The Woodland House Personal Space

Over the next few weeks, we will be sharing W.I.P. on our Woodland House personal space, designed by our Senior Artist, Paul Rance.

Paul worked for 12 years at Sony Computer Entertainment, London and was the Senior Artist on many Sony games. Most notably, he worked on PlayStation Home for 5 years doing in-house development work and building the original Home Squares (1 & 2,) and the fun Singstar dance space. Paul also created the most breathtaking personal apartments for PlayStation Home, like the Prehistoric Valley, Kingdom of the Skies, Dream Island, Paradise Health Club, Stately Home, and the Complex 2; just to name a few.

When it comes to desiging in-world spaces, Paul is #1 and we feel very lucky to have him. Here is your first look at our Woodland House personal space!

W.I.P. Eve Female Avatar Development

W.I.P. images taken during the beginning of the development process for Eve, our female avatar. Closely compare the two versions of the avatar image, to see the lighting and difference in texturing which make her more realistic.
