Welcome to Joes Tomb Raider Junk V1, my first ever Tomb Raider Fan Site. Please take your time and look around :D
I have created this site because a few months ago I discovered that over at Tomb Raider Forums, a user over there called Dusan has created a program which allows you to pose and render models from Tomb Raider Underworld as you please, and it has proved to be very popular amongst the forum users. I really enjoy creating my own renders of Lara Croft and Co, but I also enjoy modding the models - that is, altering the textures according to my taste.
The purpose of this website is to display my own Tomb Raider renders and provide links so that users of XNA Lara can download my mods.
Updates
29th July 2009
Neglected the site for almost a month now - according to site stats it's reached at least 70 hits so that's not too bad considering lol
I have deleted the gallery pages - I will make new ones soon but for now I want to concentrate on one other thing.
I am now capable of modifying the meshes to some extent - just simple switching parts from the different models, so I will be posting up some of my model mods.

Woah, been neglecting this site lately eh?
It's early days yet, but some special tools were recently added, and they have been used by other forum members on TRF to modify and combine the meshes. I have got the hang of erasing unwanted parts of a mesh but if I can learn to combine the models, I will definatley be making some. Here are some of the things in mind I hope to make:
Amanda - Sleeveless Heavy Coat
Lara - Combining the DrySuit with Jungle Pants and Jungle Shorts models
8th June 2009
Added the Links page, and included a link to Tomb Raider Forums and a fansite showcasing renders from other users at XNALara Art.
2nd June 2009
-Just some more renders added to the Lara gallery.
-Am considering creating a comic using images from XNA Lara. Check this space for updates in the future.
1st June 2009
-Categorised renders by the month they were created.
-Added more renders to Lara and Amanda gallery. Added the Natla gallery with 1 Natla render.
The newest update for XNALara enables users to really distort and morph bodyparts so I've took Amandas hair and stretched it so it looks like she has longer hair, and used the separate Amanda hair wig/model on Lara and did the same. Check out the new renders to see for yourself :D
