My First Terrain

Hi

I'm making a new cine, and i'm trying to make better terrain.
I need your advice on how to improve

1st pic 'ready to strike' Some warriors in the forest
2nd pic 'valliant defender' A warrior ready to defend his city
3rd pic 'paradise' A mysterious forest
4th pic : same as 3rd but changed camera angle
Edit: New pic! 5th: 'Throne'
Edit2: New pic 6th: 'beautiful Day'
Edit3: 7th: 'Sinful Past' Murder Scene
8th ' Burning Angel' Not really a terrain, but a scene from my cinematic that i though was cool

Check out my Cine (see my sig) to see similar terrains, with music, and battles ^^

I like them all a lot. Reminds me of [Death]'s work. Very cinematic-like.

The last one isn't my favorite. I wouldn't use that camera angle for a screenshot.

Not a whole lot to say, except well done!

Hey thx I'm glad you think they're good
Oh it's very cinematic-like because well it is from a cine ^^

edit: i uploaded the 3rd pic with a normal view to see if ppl like that better

I like it a lot, but I agree that the last pic isn't as good as the others. Keep up the good work, I look forward to your cine.

Thx for the comments
You can see my first cine in my sig if you're interested (same style as in the terrains, but with music and fights ^^)


edit2: i'll add more screenshots as my new cine develops and thanks for the rep

The second one's awesome. The first one too, and the last two are great as well. +rep.

:O
Just where can I get those doodads?
The terrain is just great.

the terrain was made with the UTM, an incredible tool

You should download it here , it's reallt great :http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45316

Yeah, well done. But the sun in the second pic just looks, weird...

Omg i had one of those nymphs (parrots) but he died month ago.

Oh, mine's 1 year old now. He's really cute, and can sing happy birthday

The sun is slightly angled, but i doesn't seem too strange to me.
Btw, for the guy a guy that made some pretty 'special 'terrain you shouldn't really be talking about weird

How many knights in shinning armour taking a pose next to a huge castle did you ever see in real life?
Since it's not realistic like in real life, then in my world the sun is slightly tilted

(in reality i agree that the sun is tilted in that pic, but it doesn't seem too awkward, i barely noticed it before you mentioned it - now all i can see is that >< )

The 2nd one is the most awesome because it has my Plated Footman in it <3
Nah kidding, I really like the rays of light in that one, I like that "ambush" atmosphere in first one, and 3rd and 4th I didn't really like that much, but fog was well done. BUT STILL, very good work for a beginner! +REPZ

I have to say I love the first one the best

Thx for the positve feedback, i'm glad you enjoyed them
I added a new pic, is this one still good?

Also the forest pics seem to be the worse. What's wrong with them? How should i improve it?

They're very good. Most especially if they're your first. The only thing I'd say about the forest in my opinion is to get rid of the trees with the leaves that point upwards. I think they're ugly, personally.

The new one is uber smexy

But the spell breakers are too small in the back and they are just randomly placed :\ You should make them symmetrical like guards.

@ ghenjis:

in the cine the camera moves pretty fast so I didn't observe it at first, but you're absolutely right, the leave pointing upwards is fugly, i'll remove that.

@ void:
Actually the Spell breaker are symetrically placed all around the throne, but in the angle it makes it look as if it's not, maybe i should post that spot from another angle?

Make it look like they are symmetrical >.<

Yeah i'll try...

Btw i added a new pic. There was no fog that looked good, so instead i used the 'light from above' doodad. What do you guys think?

The last one looks cool^^. But terrains like that need really tiny details. And the lightning effects could be better.

Yeah i tried so hard getting the right light, but in the end i just gave up and uploaded the best looking one =/

Wooosh, for your first terrains, these look great.
You seem to be quite skilled with camera angles.

These can't be first terrain work xD

These are just WAY to awesome!!!

+rep!

Thank you very much for your comments, they really motivate me to continue my new cine

Edit: Added a new pic 7th 'Sinful Past' and 8th 'burning angel'
I'm not too sure how the last one turned out...

Nice burning angel and sinful past. They both look very much cinematic-like. I still can't believe you're beginning to terrain.
BTW, for the angled sun ... it wanted to see the fight

Dude, don't listen to what anyone says.. For a cinematic these will look awsome!

Edit: Well listen to them, they have good advice. But your terrain will look awsome in a cinematic.

I watched the cinematic in your signature, LordHunter, and you've tremendously improved. I'm very impressed with your progress. I hope to see your cinematic soon.

Oh jesus f***ing christ I love that burning angel!

Wow, nice additions. The burning warrior rocks.

I wonder if General Frank is proud that his Angel gets a cameo?

I would be

All awesome terrains. I especially like Throne and Valiant Defender.

Wow man these are great +rep!!!!

GF's models are in about 10% of all maps. As a map Mod, I wade through many maps, and GF and Elenai's elves are the most commonly used models.
