Cities XL New Blog Post and Screens #4

As a follow-up to their recent "Point, Shoot – Win!" contest, which invited gamers to submit images of their homes for possible inclusion in Cities XL (story), Monte Cristo has launched today an extensive blog post, describing the process of recreating the winner's real-world home within the game. On Cities XL website, artist Kirill Bozhok from Monte Cristo's Kiev studio walks readers through the step-by-step process of taking images of a home and converting them into a full 3D model, complete with realistic textures, environmental effects and lighting. The new blog post includes images that illustrate each step of the process as it is explained. A new batch of screenshots has been inserted in our gallery.
