On Topic:

Comment on the terrain above:
I dont really think that the angel will work, change it.

 

[communist_orc]

Create a scene from an ancient myth

oki... how bout this: Jesus walking over a lake?
Oh sweet, next im gonna do Moses spliting the red sea!^^

 

[~Void~]

Shit, that was my idea. I won't be doing that anyway, though, because WC3 waterfall doodads are shit

 

[busterkomo]

here is a wip of my hanging gardens of babylon terrain
i want to make a sunrise in the back and other things

Nice terrain raid, although it could use some fog and lighting (I'm sure you plan on adding them anyways).

Am I the only one who thinks it's ridiculous that you receive just as much reputation for making a terrain than if you had made an entire map? 40 reputation seems high for something like this.

That's how much you get for making a skin, spell, model or even a drawing, so I don't see why not.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i still got alot of time right?

 

[~Void~]

Until april 17th, so yeah you do.

 

[Linaze]

Quite late comment, but that terrain looks awesome Raid.

 

[HFR]

HFR's WIP

Well, here's my WIP, but I think it's still bad, so I can change the camera angle and terrain eventualy.

 

[Acvong]

omgosh never saw this till now im in

 

[communist_orc]

@ void: Dude, it was a joke... if u wanna u can totaly do Jesus or Moses... or both^^

 

[HFR]

omgosh never saw this till now im in

What you means by this?

 

[~Void~]

@ void: Dude, it was a joke... if u wanna u can totaly do Jesus or Moses... or both^^

I was joking back

 

[CombatTheWombat]

I have never made a terrain before. I might try to do one.

Yeah, that's what's wrong. Developing a map takes significantly longer than any of those.

 

[~Void~]

True, but the campaign contest gave 60, didn't it? That's a start.

 

[Linaze]

It's the art contests that gives to much rep imo, not the map contests that gives to little. I mean, it would be a bit ridiculous if you were awarded like 80 rep for a mapping contest just to balance it, since generally, a map takes longer time to do than a skin or a model.

 

[Kwah]

Breaking any one of these rules will result in DISQUALIFICATION and RAPE.

Anyway, I'm in. Just noticed this.

 

[Deathcom3s]

I have made so little progress that it's not even worth it to post a WIP, lol.

 

[Vincent]

I would like to join, this contest seems fun


Edit: oh yeah, i was wondering if its possible to place custom models into the map....?


edit again: do i have to post a screen shot or the entire map?

 

[ArcticInferno]

Screenshot I believe, and you can only use contest-sanctioned models and the UTM.

 

[Oziris]

Here is my second WIP!!!
I like the sunset my self. Is the orange fog better or the blue one? i cant really tell.

 

[D a w n]

orange looks much "happier"/better

 

[HFR]

I made an Jesus walking on the lake too... But I sucks at making roman things, I'll make an norse, maybe Yggdrasil...

 

[Wolfhelm]

Oziris, that hill to the right is looks wierd cuz you got all these lil pine trees and then this 1 huge giant elv tree. Scale that thing down some and scale up your pine trees. Just a suggestion though. After all it is a competition.

The horizon is too low, it doesn't physically make sense.

 

[Celaquil]

Meh, to show everyone that I am working on this, I am now going to post a VERY early stage WIP. I know most of its horrible, but it'll get fixed, eventually.

 

[Just_Spectating]

thats actually pretty good Keiji

 

[~Void~]

Those hills are sux. They look more like piles of stuff in a junkyard, maybe you should make them look more naturally-shaped.

 

[CoBrA b]

Updated!

Some Highlights:

Crystals in background now glow!

Took out all the coral that looked bad and only kept the ones that looked good!

Added Seaweed!

 

[~Void~]

Absolutely awesome. Maybe add more fish and some dolphins or something. I'll allow you to use 2 custom unit models. (Let me edit the first post)

 

[leet.firefox]

CUSTOM UNIT MODELS!
This means I don't have to use a harpy

 

[Just_Spectating]

well he could just use the Whale model already ingame.

 

[~Void~]

well he could just use the Whale model already ingame.

Well that's a killer whale, and you don't see those in tropical waters.

 

[Linaze]

Atlantis looks good, even though it looks like some underwater troll ruins.

 

[HFR]

You'll say what custom models we can use, or the contesters can choose any model?

 

[ArcticInferno]

That's nice but the hills really spoil it.

 

[Celaquil]

Ofc they do, I've just simply placed them there to get an overall feel of the hills, I havnt even worked on them yet. I'll fix em up

[Darkyvm]

Submissions must be original work and may not be made before the contest starts (or after the deadline, d'oh).

Sorry Acvong, but that means you can't use that terrain.

 

[Acvong]

Oh dam..lololol
Guess im gonna make a new one

 

[Megafyr]

Well.. Here's a WIP. I'm doing something Norse Mythologyish.

 

[Belgarath]

Looks extremely good, Megafyr. Very lifelike.

 

[CoBrA b]

Updated!

Some Highlights:

Crabs Added!

Dolphins Added!

Fish Spam!

 

[Just_Spectating]

those dolphins are too small IMO or that crab is huge!

 

[Wolfhelm]

Well that's a killer whale, and you don't see those in tropical waters.

Uhh I seen on news today killer wales in Gulf of Mexico. FYI

 

[Hawkwing]

Here is my second WIP!!!

Make the sky dark so it looks like the sun is actually setting.

 

[HFR]

Well, as I already said, I gave up making roman and started making an Norse, so here is my WIP, Yggdrasill outpost, 2 versions. Also made an Jesus walking in the water for fun (but I'll not use it).

note: The WIPs are in an very early stage, so, eventually, I can change much things.

 

[~Void~]

Sweet Yggdrasil. I hope you don't mind that I'm doing Yggdrasil too, except mine is underground (for the most part).
