I've made contact with a sentient office chair... Apparently it's feeling fine.
I shall continue to probe for information throughout the day.
I hope it likes farts.

I can't quite believe that TWHL Tower 2 will have been out for FIVE YEARS next week! From the humble beginnings of the first TWHL Tower, the submissions for this sequel were just ridiculously well made.
Now is a fine time to check it out... or revisit it?

When you're right, you're right. Archie has given all his whiteboard textures for The Core a makeover, using new Photoshop tools and a tablet.
The mod is full of Easter eggs, references and other things on the whiteboards and I think redoing them by hand really helps to humanise them a little more.

I did some tests changing the scientist's shirt to give them a little more variety, but this idea was dropped. I'm probably going to use it for a LOT more prop models going forward.
Maybe in future projects I'll set it up properly so I can have colour variations for civilian and zombie clothing.

Made a new spraycan model for The Core (and anything else really) with a colormapped texture so it can be any colour I need. Stupidly excited about this very limited use prop model... :D
