Map Battle 15: All wet [New Deadline]

[Something]

Final for me will hopefully work too!

[Garrador]

oh comon guys! Post final please! I have nothing to do tonight so im sitting here looking forward to see finals

[Jest@]

ok, here you go....not all that happy with this, first time doing maaajor displacement work and it's gone a bit wrong..had some nice touches that didnt make it thanks to, uh, 'technical issues', like pretty water reflections on the cliffside, tumbing water that didnt look like shite...sigh...

tbh this is only about 50% of what i wanted to do, but still looks kinda pretty.

oh, yeah, and since this was bound to become the Color Correction Battle, (thanks bad-robot ), i hope you all like my crazy-strong sepiatone!(done in about 3 secs )

Aside a calm stream at the foot of the alps, an old water-mill sits decaying. Just the one screenie, this is final.

[RSX WHEEEEEE]

think that gnome-looking hut thing makes it all worth it, tho IMO.

[Garrador]

Ohhhhhh! That IS sexeh! I can nearly see you wanted to do more (wouldv become a great map for any advanture game eg. final fantasy? )

Looks too pretty. Its relaxing to look at. Thanks

Anyways, very nice disp and lightning work!

[Penney]

I disagree with that gapping black hole, an interior consisting of earthy tones would make it look even nicer. Other then the black hole, overall great. Love the hut otherwise I just have things against black holes, It's like negative space in a drawing.

[Jest@]

yeah, it was meant to be ruined good & proper, and you'd be able to see the inside...had to make the hole a bit small and darken the insides, cos, well, there wasnt anything there

[Something]

Final time for me:

The ruins from the Soviet Union-





Oh, and nice work Jest, kinda funny like three people from Sibvertus creating maps for this.

that is mighty sexy something!
Nice atmoshphere. Also lots of details on buildings etc..

The first pic is my favorite!

Btw: three people from sub? You and?

Anyways, its lovely!
It will be hard to vote on this comp, thats for sure!

[Steaky]

My final compiles been running for about an hour. Hopefully it will get done soon because I have to go out in a little bit (it's Canadian Thanksgiving here tomorrow). Wish me luck!

[JakeParlay]

jest@ that looks great. Some hills or forest in the background to broaden the scope would help tremendously, imho, but still top-notch nonetheless. really fantastic.

something, thats great, i love the glare around the smokestack. the tree growing out through the building into the light is a clever touch as well.

ok, so here i offer up my finals (and yup, I also bumbled through the color correction as well, although its pretty subtle )

please click for full size

[Jest@]

beautiful, Jake. really nice. have to say, the inside of the cabin's a bit dull, i woulda had a boatshed opening out to the water filled with fishing/boating goodies. but the first and last shots are lovely, amazing sky.

@Something: great atmosphere dude, love it. at first glance there isn't much to sell this map to you, but it's really growing on me.

woo, Something and Jake have posted, off to bed for me!

/tries not to wake the g/f

[Garrador]

oh my god jake. How do you get so nice cliffs?

Looks ace! Incredibly nice work! The color correction was good. Guess its a standard now

Ver nice work! Enviorment is your thing!

[Persol]

You people amaze me.

[toxicity]

omfg, NOOOo

i JUST got the greatest idea -_-

an oil tanker at night off the coast of somewhere with a slow/low fog over the water.

ughhh i wish i came up with that faster
