Ok After a week of extreme hard work and little sleep I'm proud to show off the piece I made. It started out as me helping out futty but then turned into me making it my piece. Was waiting on him to make a final back wall brush piece but I ended up finishing it myself since he didn't seem to want to get on msn. Anyways guys here it is! Noir of teh aquarium!

I would like to thank reko and Spajsat from wiseguys for donating the mobster model to me. 99% of the other custom materials / models were made by me.

ZIMYGISH! When I saw the Black and white screens I was all like "Wowza!" and then I saw the colour ones...:shock:

Please spend some more time making that into a level! I don't even want any enemies! I just want to run around it!

Yes vivi that's the sexiest scene so far. If you don't make that a full map I will! ;P

So yeah I'm jumping into this one.. first one I've been in in forever it seems.

Wow VIVI you really did justice. That first screen is amazing. I should have stopped playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R and helped :cry: .

Vivi... that looks so awesome. Please tell me you're going to continue it. You may have an attempt on your life if you don't.

Also, that model is sweet.

Yeah, sorry meo, I actually really like yours. Having a bright shot is good, not all film noir is 90% black! However, if you can somehow bring out some contrast in that last shot while keeping it reasonably bright, it'll look way better. That one reminds me a lot of the end of the Bruce Willis storyline in Sin City.

Perhaps try and frame it so there's less of the wall on the left, focusing on the glowing area and the man a bit more. If you can have the man walking away as well, that'd be awesome :)The first one's great as-is, but if possible some (very, very subtle) volumetrics would make it perfect imho.

@killa; I'm trying to minimize the extensions, but in the end I'm not gonna shut battles down when people are on the edge of awesomeness. Some of the best work in the battles comes out at the last second, and that appears to be holding true here. And, in fairness, non-entrants don't really get the right to complain.

Yeah meo. bro you really hit a nice looking scene there man. Not totally sure on the blue clouds but I'm loving the setup and the one room with the dude dead. Its pure gold in the Noir sense

Meo's is really nice, one of the few that actually looks noirish as opposed to "this is the time period, look its black and white too!"

Please don't close it yet, I've got hours of class today and will be dropping my final shot right before the deadline.
