Portalarium’s concept artist, Stephen Daniele, updated the Darkstarr Metronome art thread in the Shroud of the Avatar forums with an image of an early 3D rendering of the decoration put together by 3D artist Bob Cooksey:

Bob has a Work in Progress for us! He has been working in 3D Max and ZBrush building out the Darkstarr Metronome. Bob, Bren and I had a quick conversation about animation and how the metronome would work. Once Bob is finished Bren will be setting up the animations.

This is a pretty intimidating-looking metronome, it must be said. The question should be raised, of course, as to where those backers (like myself) who will be receiving it, but who have not pledged at a high enough level to receive a house to keep it at as well, will put theirs. Still…wherever it ends up being placed, it will look quite imposing indeed.
