Yeah but I'd like to see some other guys chime in before we give this guy all this credit.
Here comes Azzar, still nursing his feelings from that other thread, grasping desperately for any opportunity to be a useless contrarian.

Isn't this just basic 3D model rendering and texturing? And he is basing it off a template not drawing from scratch?
The EQ atlas stuff is pretty basic compared to his real work, and yeah I'd imagine the renderings are based off of templates - templates which he created.

I feel he is making AVERAGE money, as my gut instinct is that he is just an average 3D model artist who is just doing something cool with an outdated game.
Nah, I know dozens of graphic designers who don't do anything else for a living. Todd's work is god-tier - graphic design isn't the most lucrative industry to be involved in, but the merest glimpse at his demo reel illustrates that he doesn't have any issues as a contractor. You don't need anything other than toddfx.com to realize this.

I don't believe there is anything extraordinary about him. Just a hunch I know other people had as well.
Jesus, who gives a shit? How insecure are you when someone else's talent is duly recognized your kneejerk reaction is to jump in and pathetically try to debase it? Maybe if you actually tried accomplishing something worthwhile in your life you wouldn't have these embarrassing, corrosive tendencies.
