Forgot to upload this. Tartarus logo concept.
Image None of it is "mine" (except the text, I typed that myself! :D) - the upper wolfs heads are google searches. The lower one was hard to track back down, but seems to be an altered version of http://canyx.deviantart.com/art/Finaliz ... D-36160225

Not actually sure where the sword came from. :? I didn't even save the original on my laptop. Must've been working from a screenshot.

Very nice, Talv. May I ask where you model and make your textures? (Softwares)

I use 3DS Max for the modeling... and the textures... I don't remember how I did those. That was five years ago. :D I just had them on my computer so I used them to play around with it.

Is it just me...or does the Nemesis have a serious lack of weapon mounts for behind it?

First, WIP. Second, those aren't fixed weapons; they have a good deal of freedom in where they aim. :D I'll get a screenshot later of some swivel-y goodness to illustrate.

Your first point convinced me already. The second was overkill ;P

Thanks, this is not in my league, with >1k$ per year and Win only :)
Looks fantastic!

You can always get a student copy.
Also <1k per year? >1k is a pretty large range. :V

Well, it is >1k which means between 1k and 2k ;)
And I cannot get a student copy - because you are almost one generation off. In few years, my son might :shock:

Who said you had to be a student to get a student copy? :ghost:
You can use my old student email if you want. :V

So 2k<x>1k. >1k would be anything anywhere above that, you could be Bill Gates! Or Victor!

That is horrendous. You are saying that both x and 1k are bigger than 2k, while both 2k and x are bigger than 1k. Don't do that.

The formatting you are looking for is:

1k < x < 2k

or more likely:

1k <= x < 2k

as you're talking about a four-digit number starting with a 1.

Well, sort of 1k < 1600€ < 2k.
Sometimes, google can shorten the dicussion.
This is per year. To compare, I got a Vue 2016 complete (just before release so with a few %-off) for 399$ IIRC. And I can use it forever or until it does not work on my soft/hardware, whatever comes first.

Note that you can have for 3DS Max 2 years licence for only 3200€, which happens to be <= 2 * 1600 - a huge benefit! And hold your chair: even a 3 years for 4800€, which is obviously <= 3 * 1600 is possible. Nice touch, 3ds Max!
And anyway, it seems to be Win only - so out for my purposes!

Blender is a solid alternative that also happens to be free, CSE. :) It has a steeper learning curve and takes more time to achieve the same results, but it works quite well if you're willing to put the effort in. I think it works on Macs, too.
