[Tweek]

idk, I'm not sure if I like it- it seems like arbitrary subdivisions of a flat wall. I like forerunner better when it has more flow and purpose to it. In the end when you look at it head on, it just looks like a flat wall with intricate etchings on it. Sure the etchings are nice, but it's still just a flat wall.

But the textures are very nice, Dane. That's what you're good at. =)

dano just sucks at making proper renders. most of the larger patterns follow the geometry. the angle he shows it in just hides it all. if you were to see it ingame, i'm sure it'll look alot more natural and alot less flat as it looks now.
also, now it might seem slightly cluttered, but these are just diffuse (bump too? not sure), and setting the basework for the textures. the final result it'll all look alot more dirtied up and faded away, and be less of an eye-piercing flood of patterns.
