nice work. i love the texture. lovely.

[Gadric]

I hope, it will not look too low poly. That's the hard decision, you have, if someone asks you to make a environment with 5000 Polys...it all rests on you....today i will post the whole building...

[Gadric]

ok, i don't want to let you wait, here is the complete building, but not final, i have lot ideas, but not much time left...show me your imaginations and ideas to improve it!

hope you like it!

ola,

nice progress - looks really great. Nice Textures and Layout so far. Fits perfectly into the Diablo Sheme.

Personaly i would suggest more Contrast on the Colors and Lighting. A Focus-object would add more depth (athmospheric) to the scene.

hi folks,
here comes an update for you,
Searchingsoul: Thanks for you comments, i still work on the lighting and hope to get it right...not much time left...

I think I like the green picture (before your last update) a little bit better. It feels more closed off and it's got more character. Making everything brown or dark detracts a bit from all the work you've put into it, and it makes it look more generic.. Just my opinion. Looks great though!

[Gadric]

thanks blacker, you are right, the cold moon light i made in the first version is much better and build a better contrast to the torches, hope you like the update, i am still working....

Beautiful :thumbsup:

Quick comments:

-Bloody altar texture seems to be blurry and less detailed than the rest of the scene. Pixel density issue?

-Vine texture seems way too green and unnatural. In this type of environment it might look better slightly wilted and discolored vs. the lush green jungle look it has now.

-Ground texture is beautiful but its noticably tiling. This could be fixed with some love on the texture or with some vertex blending between 2 textures.

-I like it. :D

Peace.

I will work on the texture on the altar and maybe i work also on the plants, but here, i want to have the contrast between the green and the brown walls...maybe i will add some yellow, so dead and life are allways near by.... :-)
The tiling on the ground, i will work on a bit..i hope i get it....only some hours left..........:scream:

best regards,
Gadric

[Gadric]

come on dudes, there is not much time left....i will add a sky for better presentation, what left?

This last shot compared to the others are the best in my opinion (Really good in fact). Dont know what you should do more though, Sorry :(


Maybe make a nice presentation for it? ;)

[blacker]

I recommend sending it soon. It's taking FOREVER to submit work. Their servers are overloaded.

[Gadric]

ok, i have to sleep now, i am not satisfied with the presentation, but no more time and yes, i have problems too, on uploading....damn....:sad:
