Dan Bickell’s CG VF-1

As a rule of thumb we’re not supposed to post any fan projects on the main site until is 100% done and is presented pretty well. But looking at these pictures our resident CG artist Dan Bickell posted, I feel like these are completed works of art. I’m almost tempted to print some of these on canvas and hang it on my wall. If anything they are officially the current wallpaper to my PC and cellphone! Thanks Dan!
