Art Assets and Tracking
Contents
Look and Feel
We're going for a Sci-Fi look where the feel is somewhere between World of Warcraft and Starcraft, a bright upbeat mood. For the color pallet something like Age of Empires III, bright base colors with tasteful splashes of color that highlight buildings and units. Our buildings should represent free floating entities in space that are connected via a transportation system. This is similar to how Bio Shock represents Rapture, underwater buildings connected via tubes, but ours will be in space and not in the 1920's.

Requirements
Models
Models should follow the look and feel specifications. Models should be able to be placed or combined as in a tile based system.
Complexity
Models should be complex, but still keep a low polygon count. Model complexity and polygon limits will be further defined as we do more extensive testing of our 3D Engine.
Textures
All textures should be included in the model file. If they can't be extracted form the SketchUp file then they will also need to be included as *.png files. Textures file dimension should in power of twos( 2x2,4x4,16x16,32x32,64x64, etc) and should be kept as small as reasonably possible.
Submission
Models will be uploaded to the Google Warehouse. Depending on our needs we may also need to have the models uploaded to a folder on our SVN repository.
