I really like the camera angles. Hey, I heard about that CAVE crap, what is it? Anyway good stuff, as far as critiques go, for concept sketches, I think they are pretty damn good.

the CAVE is a "Cave automated Virtual Environment" they are pretty badass.

in short, its a room where a 3d world is projected onto 3 walls and the floor as it would appear from a camera (objects to the left of the camera appear to the left, etc) and images are produced in stereo... when you look at it everything is in your face.

swampbug (another forum dude here) and i took a piece up from class this past summer, and im taking that class again cause it was hella fun.

here are some links about the cave: http://evlweb.eecs.uic.edu/pape/CAVE/ http://www.evl.uic.edu/home.html (developers of the cave )

thanks for you comments too
