I've picked out one of my all-time favorite metal songs:



Lyrics in video description. However, these particular lyrics from the song are what I'm basing the scene on mostly:

I will no longer turn my head
I will never forget you
You are the one we left behind
You are the forsaken

Looks really nice Spas. It's a bit early to submit an entry, I wish you could work on it more. You could try finding some better lighting, color correction, and that skybox really doesn't fit. Oh and, where are the paint brushes?

Ima be basing a level off of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nz6Rq1P ... re=channel

I've got some rough stuff down, and I'm working on some cactus models. I'll probably retexture the jelopy and/or the jeep rather than model new cars.

And yes, I'm totally doing the psychedelic colour part

I will do this song by Salem al fakir.
I did listen to it much in summer when I was working. But the map will probaly not look as the enviorment in the video and nighter the guys will be there^^
Beacause this is the first time I watch the video and I had like built up my own little place in my mind when listening to the song and that is what I will do :)

Spas your entry looks cool and really suits the song you chose, however the environment doesn't really...fit in. The focal point is clear, but in my opinion it's too different from the environment it's in. Perhaps you could incorporate more of the song in to the surroundings?

Well...I can't really say you didn't do that, since I never listened to Rolling Stones (not my cup of tea).

I think you should be more creative, like doing something comes to your mind when LISTENING the music, not watching and remaking what the music video has. :)

Alright, this is my first time doing something like this, but here goes... I'm doing the song All Souls Night by Loreena McKennitt, a Celtic/World artist from Canada. You can get the lyrics here. You can check out all the progress on my dev blog. Keeping in mind this is still a WIP, here are a couple of screens:

There will be an old stone bridge crossing the river where the plank-looking thing is right now. Working on that today. Think I'm gonna change that skybox, too... Ton more work to be done, in any case. I'll post some more screens soon.

Cheers!
