About Us:
Hello Everyone my name is Steven Barrion and I am the co- founder of Dark Phantom Studios, which is a group consisting of BA graduates and students from the United States and the UK that have taking game design (Art) , graphic design, and animation courses over the years. My co-founder Donnell Gammage and I have done various school projects together pushing each other talents to the limit, and decided to take what we have learnt from our courses and put them into various mod projects to get our break into the game industry. This is our first project we have done outside of school using the UDK engine, and are always learning new techniques to make our mod look good as possible. We all have ordinary jobs but are doing whatever it takes to break from those bonds and become part of the careers which we work so hard for in school. The name of the mod project we are working on is called, “Revelations: The Chronicles of Jericho Fox.” We have a well written story, beautiful art created by Donnell and me and digital painted by de La Roche Souvestre Desire Laurent, and models of characters and props that are truly superb.

About the Project
“Revelations: The Chronicles of Jericho Fox,” is a UT3 total conversion mod that tells of Armageddon from the New Testament Revelations brought by the Egyptian god deity of Chaos and Storms Seth. This mod will merge both Egyptian and biblical testaments into a story driving third person shooter that will fulfill the player’s knowledge as well as intense action in the mythological world of the Egyptian gods.
You play as Jericho Fox a French archeologist and well known theft to most, who is cursed with immortality by the god deity of the Sky Horus for bringing the world's end by releasing Seth from the Urns of Ra in London, England on January 1, 1912. Now Jericho has become the weapon of Horus, and with the aid of the warriors of the Heru Temple known as the, "Wadjet of Ra," He will have to continue the war that split Egypt into two nations since the beginning of the 1st dynasty. Jericho must collect pieces of the urn of Isis (Urns of Ra), which is the sister urn of Osiris, that is scattered throughout the world before Seth merges the three dimensions of Heaven, Earth, and Hell to bring the Apocalypse to fruition. His cursed path for redemption is the world's only chance for salvation.
Jericho was giving special powers by Horus besides the curse of eternal life. His right eye is the eye of Horus, and his right arm is the powerful weapon of the Egyptian God of the Sky. With the eye of Horus Jericho is able to see what average item, weapon, or tool would make a suitable weapon for conversion, and with his right arm he will be able to convert any item he touches into the weapons of Horus at will, and with these powers Jericho is able to confront and destroy the minions of Seth.
Current Project Progress
The progress we have made on the mod so far is that we have already created and textured our level and are still making small but necessary tweaks to the level. Our lead level Designer Josh has already input third person to the level, and Seth’s first form, which is a deadly purple particle mist. Donnell has created Jericho 1912 version as well as the female NPC (corpse) for level one. Now Donnell, Our Helping member Henry, and I are creating props for the level and are close to completion. The next step is to populate the level and hand it over to our Lead Level Designer for Kismet work. We are pushing to have an Alpha by September for an event coming this fall, and are pushing for level one completion. de La Roche Souvestre Desire Laurent is painting most of our concept art and is doing a superb job and is now working on painting the ammunition.
Current Positions (Note) we are looking for members or Help either or are good as long as you bring 110% to all the work you do. We will also need a sample of your work if you do not mind showing us, also all positions are non-paid
Environmental Artist/Concept Artist:
We are in need of beautiful sketches of the three levels we are creating for this mod. Level one is already created in 3-D so he/she will have an idea of level one, but they will have to go by game flow charts for level two and three to create their sketches. Also we are in need of various dynamic action scenes of the main character and monsters. If you are interested in this position besides bringing 110% to the team we will need for him/her to use their imagination to create creepy but fascinating art. I myself am an artist and love to draw and would like for the new person to have that same feeling.
Digital Painter:
We will need someone to help Laurent paint various pictures that are already created, which is not a lot at the moment. We are doing our best to not move too much into comic book art, but are not being very picking about it.
Modelers (Weapons/Environmental):
We are looking for weapon modelers, or environmental Modelers. Modelers will need to know how to Normal map UV, Texture and use either of these programs (XSI, Maya, Modo, or Max). You will have various tasks to complete and I will give you a gantts chart as well that will show all your due dates of all the tasks you have to complete.
Level Designer (Kismet):
For the first level we already have it created, but are in need of a person that is intermediate or advance in the use of UDK editor. That at least knows of unreal script or C++ that can help our lead designer in various tasks from tweaking the third person camera to making props burst into flames.
Members will need UDK May 2010 and some Knowledge of UT3 (if not still ok).
