funcroc Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Brian Menze is currently working as art director on SP:TSoT?
C2B Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) Brian Menze is currently working as art director on SP:TSoT? Menze? Wouldn't that be his first project in a lead position in his entire career? Well, it's a project that fits him but still... That's a (positive) surprise. Edited June 8, 2012 by C2B
Alvin Nelson Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 Nope, Brian has been a lead on many of the projects. Being an amazing senior artist has also allowed him to participate on discussions on pretty much every project, so this is just more of a formal title for him. Let me get back to sleeping. I'm tired... Avatar made by Jorian Drake

On a random note, I just noticed your official title is the ass prod. *giggles* "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)

The Librarian Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 I find it interesting that some of the original fallout devs are making a video game with the south park creators, when both have a history of bashing scientology.
