Ok, its finished and I am pleased with it. I really think it captures the essence of the movie. I will now have to make a tron like master chief to go with it. This one took some time but I think the final version is very fun to play, had a ball driving it off the cliffs of death island!

===============================================

for the young ones!!!

I was playing online and I said my new skin was based off TRON, they replied, what? I forget that most elite gamers are like 10-18yrs. TRON 2.0 is NOT what I based it off of, TRON was a huge game in its day, and the movie was a quantum leap in computer animation! (laughable now) but this is where Red Vs. Blue really started. Rooster Teeth just prefected it! OLD School baby! today most games turn movie suck, this was NOT the same with TRON. major 'quality' actors, and the lightcycle scene!!!!!!!!! OH BABY!!!!!!!
Who here did not want to take those for a spin eh!?

I was asked what is Tron about, this link gives you a small run down

Rent it, you will like it!

For the sake of calling yourself a gamer, go to the roots! Old School. Find the old Atari and original NINTENDO system, ( these are becoming collectables, saw a colecovision in the box for $100.00) and start playing, they do not have that graphic punch, but the you will find yourself going back for more. Play Super Mario Bros. the original, before he had wings on his head or a super soaker on his back. back in the day when you put in hours of time to win a game just to get an ending that lasts one sentence "Thank you Mario! do you want to play again!" Ah!!! those were the days, I recently bought an NES in great shape on ebay, along with Contra, Super Mario 1 and 3, Metriod (the original!) it still is fun. Won Contra three times in one sitting today!

yeah, hopefully this will look better on my comp because the general warthog kind of needs a good video card, and mine sucks.

you shoud make a tron skin for everything. then itd capture the essence of tron. =P

i like it, but i think you should bolden some of the lines a bit. the tron stuff has quite a bit of variance in the line thicknesses. check out the screens for the tron 2.0 video game, that should give you some new blood for your demonic skin making rituals (how else could you be so good at it?).

geez man. dont get bent out of shape. i remember tron like it was yesterday, im no youngster.
here, this shows a bit of what im talking about, and so as not to offend your video gaming heritage- its from tron 1.0.

and if you really wanted to go all out you should mess with the multi-purpose texture and make it glow.
