Hey all, Jason here aka Crystalmesh, just dropping by to say hi and nice site. I'm sure this place will get more popular each day as more and more artist's hear about it.

awesome work man, I'd been to your site once before, do you do any commercial work or modding?

Lead paint: delicious but deadly!

Hey Crystalmesh, saw your site when you pimped it on Polycount. Great stuff. If I remember correctly he's working at Krome in Brisbane?

employ more people, get less crunch :)

Employ more people, get less money, fire artists (me!). :p

I think that's what Microforte did with their Fallout2 game.. unfortunately after the game was done, most of them (graduates or students from AIE?) had to be let go.

So it's either
1> employ more people, get less crunch, boot the people after, save money
2> don't employ more people, work the asses off current workers, save money.

btw Bunny, what happened?

I wasn't here at the time so I don't know the full story, and it's not for me to say anyway, sorry. :) As I understand it, it was more due to Interplay's troubles. Suxx0rs bigtime, but it happens to the best of us sometimes. It's not always a stable industry (unless you're John Carmack :p).

Nothing happened to my job, just crunchtime. Well, not yet anyway... (touchwood).
