A Grim Project

So I'm a child of the 80ies but a teen of the 90ies. And that meant I was privé to some amazing adventure games. If you ask other people my age or even a bit younger what Adventure games they have played you will hear about Grim Fandango from almost all of them. It was a warm Art Deco world filled with unforgettable characters. Being a costumer since I was young I've always had an itch in the back of my mind to have a Manny Calavera costume. Well the one thing that always stopped me is my skill in reproducing it the way I envisioned it.

I now have Chavant Clay and I've fallen in love with how it allows me to bring the objects in my mind to reality with my hands.

A big shout out to Tom Beg who put his skills with 3D sculpture to renew Manny as if he was in a next gen game. He sent me his 3D file to use as reference for this project.

Who is also breathing new life into Grim Fandango in the style of a stop motion homage to the opening cutscene. He has been working hard on it since 2011 and looks to be making solid progress.

It's an early rough sculpt and I have the eyes too high but it's coming along. Stay tuned for the progress!

Last but not least, is Grim Fandango Deluxe by Johnny Walker  which is breathing new life into the older game with new HD textures. Go check him out!

My friend give me a piece of advise, never worried about papers, and just ask essayhelp24 writing service to do it.
