Retexturing overview

purpose of the project:complete remake textures and create new additional textures for first episode of the Quake2.i decided base of my work on original textures.i tried to recognise what artist wanted to depict in, and represent it in form of my bump maps, parallax.in some cases
added light(luminous) textures,distort etc. to more expressive to pass what kind of surface we will see in game.tiny scratches,rusty cavities,rough paint in my first release i was placed in bump maps with main form.now Sergei add new possibility to plase it in additional textures - detail bump or height map(parallax),depending on what more need to explain character of surfase.on this account i will remake my first work to attain more impressive results in next release.
so, work in progress!

and some hard piece of work is relighting maps.in editor we have many tools to add more dramatic effects by adding styles to the lights, emitters with smoke or sparks, decals with blood splats or else, animated models or static, linking lights to moving brushes etc.litle bit of it you can see от screen shots.
