Way Back Wednesday

Before I was Liaison to the Crimson Fellowship, actually before there was a Crimson Fellowship I wore many hats in the CS department. In fact we often assisted in areas outside of CS while Vanguard was still in beta. One of the things I most enjoyed was helping the art department by taking screenshots. Sometimes getting the perfect shot is not always easy... heh who am I kidding it is never easy. For every one shot that is approved to be released 300 are not. But, just because they are not perfect does not mean they are not a great representation of the game in that particular stage of development. So I saved them... all. Some of the models have undergone a change. Some of the areas these are from have been revamped or are completely gone or renamed. And some of them can be found in game exactly as they were when these shots were taken.


Fire and Ice taken in the then "Elven Magic School" now called Fallen Lyceum of Ingolas. 7-21-06


A lonely giant taken in the Frostshard Lake area. (This was actually me pretending to be a giant!) 7-27-06

A Skeleton Captain in the Dead Landing. (This was actually me too, those darn NPCs do not like to stand still.) 7-26-06


Creepy...Spooky...Scary...Lost Shores/Glade of Shadows area 7-27-06

Well this is the walk down memory lane for this week. Tomorrow we will be back to something a little more current. :)
