The theme for the “Bulletproof” track was a fun project. The song, by La Roux (luh roo… rhymes with shampoo), is currently a big hit in Europe. If you haven’t seen it, check out her music video. It’s got some amazing art direction.
I modeled the environment in Blender, a free yet powerful 3D app. You can see a snapshot of the La Roux theme in Blender to the right. For those who remember, we featured a theme for G.I. Joe last July. That was the first theme rendered in 3D, and it is still one of my favorites.
I took queues from the music video and recreated its environment for the theme, both normal and revenge mode. The tappers too were rendered in 3D (though highly modified in photoshop). I wanted to create an illusion where you would be flying through an endless square tunnel for revenge mode, but ran short on time.
I’d give you a bigger preview of the theme, but most of you have already downloaded it and played it. And if you haven’t, you better hurry! It’s free for a week! But here… I’ll just post a render in a new perspective.

Toodles. Watch for a chance to win a $50 iTunes Gift Certificate soon!

Ernest, that is just awesome. I had a feeling you rendered it in some kind of 3D engine. I am just starting to work with blender, I am actually doing some work with google sketchup, then importing to blender and rendering it. I think I will try making a theme like this some time.
You rock!!
Awesome theme, too bad I can’t stand the song and her face but good job on the theme!!
Yeah nice job Ernest really love the theme
Amazing job this week, this may be one of the best I have seen in a long time and that’s great!!!!
Thanks for sharing this!!!
Amazing job ernest and this blog is pretty sweet and funny lol.
Sucks that you didn’t have enough time to make it like a tunnel 3-D thingy in revenge though :/ Maybe in next epic thursday :)
Wow Ernest I didn’t know that! I see you’re very interested in these modern settings. You should check out the video for “With Every Heartbeat” by Robyn. Some other videoclips of her are pure art!
I will stay in touch with you this month, I suppose you already know why? ;)
grtz, Anoesj
@Anoesj: I love Robyn!
Are you the Christina from Tapulous? :)
