I’ve been really busy lately finishing up grad school, but I have managed to get some additional work done. Some of my recent Arden work includes a new color palette for the starting zone, preliminary interface graphics, and a oven model. The original palette appeared a little washed out to me, but the new one is a little more vibrant and indicative of the balance I’d like to see in Arden once we have a more filled-out world.

I’ve finished the first revision of the Arden technical manual and style guide. There are still some aspects of the style guide I’d like to change, but overall I think it’s looking good. Some guys on the Multiverse forums have been posting some neat tips and tricks for materials lately so I might include some of these scripts in an appendix. Skybox information and color palettes will also be included in the next revision provided I can secure a copy of Terragen.
