Beretta Rx4

The Beretta Rx4 (a.k.a Benelli MR1) self defense guns are chambered in 5.56 mm

NATO (.223 Remington) and use the battle-proven Auto Regulating Gas Operated

(ARGO) system—the same system developed by Benelli for the M1014 (M4) and used

for over a decade in multiple conflicts by the United States Marine Corps.

M110-A2

The heritage of the M110 goes back to the British 8 inch (203 mm) howitzer of World

War I.

A number of these were used by the American Forces and the design was used as the

basis for their howitzer. The M110A2 is the latest version with double muzzle brake,

the earlier A1 version had a plain muzzle. It first entered service with the US Army in

1963. It has been used in the Vietnam War by the United States Army, and in

Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm by the United States Army, and

the British Army.

Venerable Dreadnought

Based on Games Workshops Warhammer 40.000 universe.

Dreadnought of the Black Templars Chapter, equipped with Power Claw &

Autocannon.

Venerable Dreadnoughts have fought in thousands of battles over several hundreds or

even thousands of years. From for all those years of combat, the Venerable

Dreadnoughts have gained vast amounts of knowledge of warfare, and the galaxy

itself. They are experienced in almost any situation imaginable. Many years of

continuous warfare have made them nearly impervious against harm and, combined

with their knowledge of warfare and the galaxy, these Dreadnoughts have become

very difficult to destroy.

Necris Temple

This level represents an alien temple on a distant planet. Over the centuries it

became a battleground where two species fought each other till the end. These

species are the Necris and the Humans.

This level is created with the Unreal Development Kit, no custom assets were used.

Most of the assets came from the Necris packages delivered with UDK.

The level is also usable as a (Team) Deatmatch or Capture the Flag map for Unreal

Tournament 3 Demo that’s included with UDK

Personal Interests:

Anything 3D-related catches my eye, being it videogames, movies or

advertising.

I’ve been playing games since a long time and I’ve always been interested in the development process and the companies behind the games. I’ve played a

wide variety of genres and categories of games and I follow the new developments of the game-industry as close as possible.

Besides videogames I’m fond of the Warhammer 40.000 table-top game. I’ve

collected my own armies and I’ve read multiple Black Library books. Although I don’t spend as much time at it as I used to, I still follow the franchise

developments closely.

Other hobbies are snowboarding and going to the movies.
