A Collection of Some of my More Recent Terrains

[Nebuli]

Here is a collection of some of my more recent terrains in StarCraft 2. I may update this thread with more terrains in the future.

That takes a lot to master terraining in SC II

I'm loving the second one, mostly because I know how hard the fog/sky transition is in
the galaxy editor. Kudos, we need more Sc2 terrainers around

It would be nice to see more people terraining for SC2. I think most people are turned off by the lack of custom models, which is a result of the higher graphical standards of the game. If you can get past that, though, SC2's terrain editor is much more versatile than WC3's, especially since they finally added pitch/roll. The lighting setting are far more extensive than for WC3, and I love just tweaking the settings, trying to get it perfect.

Part of me hopes that I can convince some of you to try out terraining in SC2. There's not that big of a terraining community for it right now, and I know that there are some very skilled terrainers here on the Hive.

Here's another terrain I'd forgotten about.

I'm really impressed with these. Due to the fact that SC2 character models actually look decent, you're able to provide far more interesting narratives in your terrains. And you do it really well.

Is the gaussian(?) blur done natively in the editor or have you enhanced it in any raster graphics editor?

I may or may not have a go at this in the near future.

 

[Nebuli]

It's native to the editor, assuming your graphics settings are high enough, as a Depth of Field system.

I'd recommend giving the SC2 editor a go. It'll only get better as more people move to it.

Edit: To be fair, the character models in SC2 still leave a lot to be desired. Just look at these faces!

 

[Vinz]

Those are really awesome. (+)

Good.

Sadly SC2 lacks when it comes to in-game model faces :/
