Jan Kloidt

Hobitt

it would be foolish to think that we could design things better that took thousands and sometimes millions of years ( nature) to be built/evolve

theres nothing wrong with taking real life stuff and slightly modifying it

John

It's hard to say get your reference from life at that point..

17 Jun 00:53

John

--

What if you're pressed for time and you need to design something space related?

17 Jun 00:53

Hobitt

--

also getting influnce from other art forms like music film photography fiction books is a good idea

@Hob:About design ideas, I don't think it's a mistake, like it's the most horrible thing you can do.
