Team S.P.I.C.E.D.

Now into week 2 of COLLAB2021, adding detail is the focus for this week.

How do you all feel about the project so far?

My feeling is that the focus of this project is the Spice Vendors House and the Foreground, and rightly so to a certain extent, but the Background wilderness, where we reside, is almost an after thought, or not as important as the detailed dents of a lamp for example. It’s human nature for us out here in back country to feel alone and forgotten, but let me assure you that this team, in my opinion, is at least as important, or even more important, than all the detail that is ‘expected’ in the foreground. 

Take a look at these images

These are from Assassin’s Creed, Ghost Recon and Zelda breath of the wild.

Now, let me ask you, What would these images be without the background or a background that was an after thought?

From the results of week 1, I have no doubt this team, you people, have the ability to create something as visually stunning as these images. We may be creating a different style overall, but the background is where the scene comes alive, 

Humans make foregrounds, GODS make backgrounds,

And we the S.P.I.C.E.D. team are the team to rise above the foreground and reach to the sky and prevail in our quest for greatness.
