Lord of the Rings: Bag End

[The_Olorin]

So i was watching a Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring and i had an idea: I should try to make somekind of place from lotr in WC III as make is similar as i could. Then i remembered that there was a hobbiton models in UTM and i decided to make make Bag End. And here is my pic:

This picture represents the entry of Bag End, i tryed to make it as similar as i could.

Update 1:


Commets, suggestion, etc are welcome.

Hate to say it, but the unit models ruin you'r terrain :*(

I also don't like the tiled ground, but that's more of a personal preference. Overall besides the units I think everything is well done, I can't think of anything you should do better but it's also such a small area you can only do so much.

@ Raven0

Thanks again for feedback. By unit models do you think both of model ruin the picture and it would be better if i remove them, or you think i should use different models. I agree that the Bilbo character isnt best and i try to find better, but atm i havent found good model. Maybe i should change his skin. . .

About terrian i agree with you also, because in the movie and in drawings there aint much more to add.

The units are ugly, delete them at once.
The tile could be made better, tried adding wooden planks?
The roof doesn't fit, but I cant think of another one that would.
Not much I can say if it's based of a movie, no imagination whatsoever.
I was hoping for a Sauron Tower terrain though.

@ Oziris

Thanks for feedback. I will deal with units. and check if other tiles are better. And maybe i try to make Sauron Tower next . . . who knows.

That sounds really cool, I might do this. Maybe a towers theme for the terrain contest?

 

[Oziris]

That could work for the colossus theme, but it could also work as a stand alone theme.

The idea is neat, however you have definetally choosen the wrong part of LOTR.
That's not your fault. The terrain - except from the models - looks quite flawless and decent. However wc3's textures are not made to be looked at that close. And unfortunaelly Bag End is small (hobbit-sized) which causes the camera to be really close to the textures itself, which causes the textures to look bad. This causes your terrain to not look as good as it should look like. But as said, that is not your fault.
I would however like to see some more LOTR screens!

@ Morbid

Thanks for feedback. I will try something bigger next time i do LOTR pictures.( Wich may be my next work. )

 

[M0rbid]

If you want to, we could do some collab terrain...
For example you do the mainscene and I will add the background and lightning or something.
Only if you are interested though

hehe stole my idea ! jk


very nice terrain, except the gandolf model makes me wanna rofl. substitute gandalf with something else. get creative =)

 

[Piwlady]

Yup.. unit models ruins it. Terrain itself is ok.

 

[DeftheLynn]

rofl it's look like gandalf is the hobbit and Bilbo is the human ...
it looks like gandalf ate to much double cheese burger from McD
