Looks nice so far, Mao. I have a feeling that'll look totally badass when it's done. I made a gothic cathedral once. I did one set of arches all the way up and copied it a few times. It wouldn't compile because of too many vertices. The moral of the story is: good luck!
I livestream and do hardcore play-by-play analysis of my mapping.

Desert underground base faintly reminding me of Area 51 FTW!

...if there's anything in that door...

EDIT: my home is not possible to create without Grox models, which, thanks to the crappy COLLADA export and Blender's even crappier import, is impossible to construct.

Update, geometry is almost there I think. Lighting/other details not so much...

That's tight, the lighting does make it hard to see the geo though...

Looks like an oblivion cathedral, even though it's diablo 3.

The first pics lighting makes it look narrow, even though it is fairly wide.

Naturally The Grox-err I mean my homeworld. :D

Or at least one of the cities. i could build the buildings via brushes but my modeling skills are crap so I can't either recreate The Grox themselves nor get the export/import process to work. I know enough to import/export.

You never like the theme. And that'll be it.

Nah I just don't like most of your themes, I mean they've hardly been a rip roaring success either so I'm not alone really am I? So don't get all smart about it.

I almost got used to you not whining about the theme, but I guess that's over now..
I you don't like it, fine. Just shut up.

That looks cool, it's just dark as hell for me.
