A Desolate Winter ( TDHX )

[thedeathunterxx]

Here is a screenie of a winter night...

using the UTM.

I think it could be better.

any helpful pointers?

EDit : added the edited one ( the right )

I will continue to improve this until its epicish.

The foreground seems too cluttered for winter and all the stuff seems too randomly placed as if it's a junkyard of environmental and structural doodads. I mean, it's ok, but the blocks and yellow skeletons don't seem to fit with this kind of terrain, maybe it would go better with winter. Try switching the tileset of this terrain!

Also, the midground could use some kind of interest, either that or just put fog in it to create a nice artistic effect.

The background is very nice though, I must say that, but winter clouds tend to be a little more wispy.

Oh, and one more thing, the moon isn't blue! It's gray and white Try using the moon from the Rexxar campaign screen.

The mountains look like teeth on a comb. They are all identical, you should vary them a lot more. I like how you put them at different distances though.

lol its funny

they arn't at different distances, that is just the effect of the uber cloud cutting off parts of the mountain, which was what i was aiming for

im working on it right now.

bumpp--

here is the edited one... does it look better?

i added some kind of fog in the mid ground, and added a tent with lighting, give it a little interest : /

i changed the mountains a little bit. but not by much. i also changed the clouds.

i got rid of the stuff in the foreground too.

i will add a different style of sky, like maybe a interface sky ( right now its the orb of lighnings, levitateing in a felwood sky.)

Edit : thnx for the feedback gilles, raid, and void.

Might want to put trees on the mountains all except for the very tops which you should leave white. Would make a nice effect. Also might want to make the fog start a little closer to the camera. And you can, by the way, have it start at negative values... which is always quite fun.

 

[thedeathunterxx]

fog has negative values??!!?

when did that happen xD

i gotta try that

edit : how do you put in the negative value ?
i put it into the x field, and it just goes back to 0.

Shit! Personally I think that new one is awesome! Good job thedeathhunter
