The Last of Us (Gameplay)

The Last of Us (PS3) Best looking game I've seen at E3 so far... Naughty Dog studios, makers of the Uncharted series, are incredible.

I've read in articles the studio pushes themselves to do the most complicated effects to push the console to its limits, including fire, water, and sand dynamics. Their storylines, attention to details, and gameplay are amazing.

Movie Room Rendering

I believe I began rendering this as an idea of how I wanted my home's movie room to appear. As you can see it is crudely unfinished, but I came across it on an old CD so I thought I'd document it.

If Disney princesses were real

If Disney princesses were real
By Joanna Douglas, Shine Fashion and Beauty Editor | Fashion

I've always enjoyed when an artist renders what a cartoon character would look like if it was real. I've seen it in an episode of South Park of the boys, an illustrator figuring out the skeletal anatomy of Peanut's characters, and here is one of Disney characters as real-life-like renderings.

Belle is a cutie.

New Touchdown Jesus Rendering

New Touchdown Jesus Rendering

The "Touchdown Jesus" statue in Ohio was engulfed in flames, and burned to the ground after a lightning strike in June 2010. The six-story-tall depiction of Jesus Christ with his arms raised stood in front of Solid Rock Church along Interstate 75 in Monroe, just north of Cincinnati.

An artist has now released a rendering of how the new statue may appear. It would be titled, "Touchdown Tebow." I'm indifferent with Tim Tebow, although I believe his NFL career at this point is slightly overrated. We'll wait and see how his entire career unfolds, but every one around him in the Denver Bronco's organization deserves some credit for their turn-around this year. However, this statue is a lot of praise dedicated to an individual man, and may be overdoing it a bit.

Kepler

Kepler

Several days back, scientists announced the discovery of a planet in the habitable zone called Kepler-22b. It is located about 600 light-years away, orbiting a sun-like star. If the greenhouse effect operates there similarly to how it does on Earth, the average surface temperature on Kepler-22b would be 72 degrees Fahrenheit (22 degrees Celsius).

This is only the beginning, considering the Kepler spacecraft has already detected more than 1,000 exoplanets. The far more interesting discovery will be the determination of the planet's chemical make-up.

There is new software being creating to assist with the rendering of exoplanets, but in the meantime here's an artist's rendition of what the planet may look like.
