I guess this should be in the 'currently in production' forum, but since it's down, and I'm still pretty early into making my game, I may as well take the opportunity and get a critique on what I have so far. Graphics-wise, that is.
I have some screenshots on my website....

...and would be grateful for any feedback. Thanks!
EDIT: A new screenshot has been added at the above.
Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Tell me what you think ;D
I really like what i see so far. I am a huge fan of SH and a luke warm fan of RE. The BG's look good. Are these ripped graphics or did you make them yourself?
If they are original, i'd like to know how to do the same.
Wow. That looks great. What do you use to make the BGs?
Also, I've always wanted to make a game like Silent Hill. If you need any help, just gimme a buzz.

Thanks. To answer your first question, I made themself. They were built and rendered in CINEMA4D 6XL. Everything in screenshot 1 was built from scratch. In screenshot 2, the chair and the fire extinguisher are royalty-free models that I found somewhere on the web, everything else is mine. The chair and the trashcan in screenshot 3 are also royalty-free models that I added to my own scene. All the textures are have either been created from scratch or are modified versions of existing textures (again, royalty-free).
As to how you could do the same, there are plenty of freeware or shareware 3d modelers availble, its just a case of learning how to use them. I'm self-taught, and if I can use them anyone can! Hope I answered your questions.:)

Thanks. And thanks for the offer:)
Hey man looking good!
I'm working on horror hospital (working name) wich uses pre-rendered backgrounds.
I used the deusex engine for that but to be hounest I find it crap compared to those bg's. I might consider using a better program like yours ;)
Hey, I've been following the progress of Horror Hospital for a while now, I hope your still working on it. It took me a fair while to do those backgrounds
in Cinema4D, so if you find your making progress with the DeusEx engine then keep going! If I do all these 3D renderings and my game turns out to be rubbish, then I'll have wasted a lot of time:)
Keep up the good work!
