Hawkwing is just really nice (314)Hawkwing is just really nice (314)


Hawkwing's Terrain Showcase

Some are new, some are old. Some are good, some are bad. But these are the terrains I've made over the year. I'll make more soon when I get my terraining mojo back.

Descriptions

1. The swampy woods south of the Elven border. One of my first UTM terrains.

2. An ancient ruined temple in northern Dragonblight. No imports.

3. A sinister king reigns over the kingdom with an iron fist. His vast citadel lies just beyond this canyon. First time using B2M's High Res stuff.

4. An underground passage into the Goblin's hovel.

5. The entrance into the Shrine of the Golden Cobra. The ancient tomb contains treasures beyond any mans imagination, but also the most cruel punishments. Made on the same map as all 3 SOTGK terrains.

6. Dalaran Shaft. Cooked it up in 10 mins, could've been a lot better. ;P

7. The dark horrors await down the hallways of the Shrine of the Golden Cobra. Made on the same map as all 3 SOTGC terrains.

8. This gate is all that separates man from treasures beyond belief. But the terrors inside are even greater. Made on the same map as all 3 SOTGC terrains.

9. Undiscovered terrain awaits our heroes. The vast mountain contains dangers never seen by man. Shown with and without units.

10. Orcish defensive border to the Icecrown Glacier.

11. The Hand Of Gul'Dan. A massive volcano in the heart of the Shadowmoon Valley.


More to come! Keep a look out.

Looking good, all of them. Didn't know you were such a good terrainer. Though as I recall it, the Hand of Gul'dan is black with green flowing lava. Perhaps this could do?

EDIT: Also, what did use for the roof in those cobra pictures.

Well, with UTM you're kinda limited to how close you can get to reality.

1. Good point ;P

2. I don't really either. But this was like my third terrain, so don't expect much from it.

3. The red fog is supposed to represent the sinister rule over the land.

4. :D

5. Moonlight leaks in through the ceiling in the hallway, but it's mostly for ambience.

6. Not one of my favourites, but it was fun.

7. :D, again.

8. D:

9. Ya, one of my newer ones. Not much you can do with a mountain like this, and I was going for a very open styled area.

10. Well, it's not actually the end of the world. It just looks that way, but okay.

11. It was my Terraining Contest #2 submission. It didn't do so good, but there were a lot of submissions.

Well, compared to what I have seen from you lately, these are somewhat meh... They are good concepts and all, but are either to focused or just not up to a better standard.

But good job d00d.

And 1000th foo'

6th one is really good. Only thing I might suggest for it is to add some kind of light from above (or in this case below) upside down going up the tower.

They're pretty cool.

One thing that tends to happen in your terrains is the use of vivid colors, wich makes it looks strange (10th terrain, for example). Try using darker colors in your next terrains, they'll surely look better.

But they're mostly nice.

The 10th terrain is definitely in my bottom three. All of these are really old stuff, I don't usually do a lot of terraining so I haven't had time to get anything new.
