MW3 is looking really good, I checked out the 1st and 2nd missions on youtube, really well done! THe pacing and scene layouts are awesome!
Thanks for dropping by Jaosn! Your works are ridiculously amazing! :D And this is an awesome redesign of robocop, i was wondering when someone was gonna try and usher him into the new era. Will be checking back often. :)
