Map Battle 35 - Eden

[nub]

I like your apples.

PS: You want a fantastical interpretation of a snake? Give it arms and legs. Everyone knows that the snake started out with arms and legs but was later punished by God...if you've watched Messed up Bible Stories.

Nice work nub.

I am almost done with my model, one last problem is getting the AO to bake because it fails to RTT for me. D:

My scene took considerably less time to make than previous battles for some reason... Maybe it's because I started 2 weeks late on the other battles though. Oh well.

That's a good idea. I was thinking along these lines though.. y'know if I could possibly manage to model this before the deadline, it'd probably happen with a legless sea serpent.

Where's yours Zip?!

[Zipfinator]

I'm saving it till the end, I don't like showing WIP's in the thread

[The Doctor]

Mine is coming along better than I expected. I went back and had a look at an old Quake IV map I was building for some inspiration. Looks pretty good so far, I just have no idea what I'm going to texture it all with.

I like your style Zip.






You greedy bastard.

Not that I disrespect your choice of strategy, but perhaps reading the public's opinions would offer you a chance to eliminate unseen flaws

[Zipfinator]

Well I show it to people, just not the entire site. I've already had someone look over it and it helped me fix up a few things.

Oh, well that makes sense

I still wish I had some time to participate here myself, though

That looks pretty good. I'd be interested to see what you can pull off in 2 weeks time...not to be discouraging or anything.

I guess this is
FINAL



I dunno what else to do with it, lul.

[mky]

EDIT: Zippy has informed me that it is indeed a new model, I would suggest making the model less round, and adding more apple-like curves.
My apologies.

Yes, it's a custom apple model BEHOLD.

I tried at first with typical apple shapes but since I'm tryin to aim for a more fantasical setting I decided for more Crash Bandicoot style apples.
.

Crash Bandicoot collected mangos.

[Zipfinator]

lol that's a nice mango tree Meo

[Meotwister]

Crash Bandicoot collected mangos.

Well if you want to be technical, in Crash you collected wumpa fruit. Which when they made it was probably like a cross between apples and mangos.

At any rate, I made them off of the CGTextures apple reference.

But whatever.. they can be mangos too... FORBIDDEN MANGOS!
