Ujimasa Hojo's Resources Discussion

[Ujimasa Hojo]

The Arcane Workshop is up.

 

[Heinvers]

Good combination on that Workshop

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Regarding techtrees, I thought the Academy would be the perfect substitute for the Blacksmith as the Research building. As for the Lumber Mill, you may opt to use it or you may just use the Academy as well making it kinda like the Orc War Mill serving as both Research building and Secondary Lumber drop-off building.

 

[Forsaken]

Wow, i really love all of this building, in my opinion, it's simple amazing! Good work Ujimasa Hojo!
Now, just left the "farm"! And btw, when will you make the icons for them? Just curious xD

But, good work again!

 

[Go'el]

I really liked of those buildings, the Academy mostly I'm waiting for the farm!
By the way, did you have any idea of what set will you do next?

For the lumber mill, the best thing to do would be to: instead of that generic Dalaran tower on top, just replace it with the clock tower of the Town Hall v1, skin it with that beige Dalaran wall color, purple shingles and then make the clock itself purple/arcane looking.

Reasoning for this suggestion: Dalaran as you probably know has a settlement in Silverpine Forest called Ambermill, and it's a Kirin Tor town responsible for acquiring lumber for Dalaran over in Hillsbrad Foothills. By making a clock tower it will fit that whole theme that's genuine and changing the walls from grey/brown to that tower beige color, with the matching purple roof, it will look sweet.

The Arcane Workshop is up.

I don't want to be rude but the workshop for me kinda doesn't fit the whole Kirin Tor set at all. Mainly because the only changes you've made is the wrap and the addition of the Observatory tower at the back, also you've kept the iron containers from the original model, my opinion is that you could at least change the containers with something like crystals(since they harvest magical essence) and to add some pillars to it.Other than the workshop the set looks pretty neat and uniquely made. The Academy is by far the most appealing building in the set to my eyes. Keep up the awesome work

Thanks for the much needed suggestion. The new Lumber Mill is now up.

 

[Heinvers]

Well, it could work. It fits the theme better now.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

The Arcane Granary is up.

 

[Heinvers]

Interesting. The wrap is good. You might wanna add some diversity to it, like another smaller building to it.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

The Arcane Temple is up.

 

[Kyrbi0]

I really like that Temple; looks unique. Is that just the Temple of the Dead without the floating skull?

 

[Heinvers]

I think that yes, and he also diversified it a lot. Good concept Ujimasa

 

[Forsaken]

WOW, I just love all of the buildings, and the icons are really good!

 

[Go'el]

Awesome models
But so... maybe a Draconian set now?

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

A lot of datamined stuff from WoD are popping up. If somebody can get me those nice Draenei building textures, that would be nice.

 

[Isgeir]

How are you feeling about some Tauren buildings Ujimasa?

 

[Go'el]

How are you feeling about some Tauren buildings Ujimasa?

Ooh nice suggestion, and if we think a little, there's a lot of options of sets. There's Dragons (Blue, Green, Red, Black and Bronze), Taurens, Ogres, Dwarves (but the Northrend's set can work as Dwarf aswell...), Gnomes (maybe not, but still...), Ice Trolls, Murlocs(?)...

 

[The_Legion]

Maybe Ujimasa can make some Horde of Northerend buildings next (?)

Edit: maybe some sort of Tuskarr/Taunka based buildings

 

[Isgeir]

I already voted for Dark Irons, Ujimasa said he is not sure - perhaps if I call it now he will change his mind ?

So... Dark Irons? Dwarves, at all?

 

[Heinvers]

Didn't he mentioned Draenei a few posts ago? ^_0
Although Dark Irons would do too..

 

[Isgeir]

He did, although... you know... to each his own, as they say, and I would really love some Dark Irons/Dwarves.

 

[The_Legion]

He did say Draenei buildings are next but didn't he say he needed the WoD draenei buildings skins first

 

[Isgeir]

Would buildings with WoWish textures fit W3?

 

[Darkloid]

Don't listen to them!, Northrend set fits perfectly for dwarven already, an Iron Horde or Tauren Set is what we need (Maybe Lizardmen/Zandalari/Aztec themed buildings?, ok no )

 

[Kyrbi0]

... or Tauren Set is what we need

Definitely. Going with Spirit Lodge-type texture-vibe, and fulfilling the ideas from Ominous Horizons... Nice.

(Maybe Lizardmen/Zandalari/Aztec themed buildings?, ok no )

Even more definitely. 'Cuz Jungle Trolls could use them too.

 

[Renly Baratheon]

Wow. I stopped hiving for a moment due to studies and then suddenly, BAM. Entire new sets.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Again, stop throwing out races without actually giving any material to work on. Anyways, a bunch of WoD Alpha stuff are being datamined. Hopefully, I can get those Draenei building textures and start soon.

 

[The_Legion]

Again I suggest SinisterX's Draenei building texture but if you feel like it doesn't really fit then ok

 

[Isgeir]

My suggestions really depends - on how open you are to use other than vanilla Warcraft III models, and by that I mean someone else's models.

 

[NelsonLaJe]

I was watching the pack of dalaran. This incredible. congratulations for the work. I have a doubt. do you intend to do some unit of dalaran, or hero?

 

[DaHomieG]

An Iron Horde building set would be the best move after or before Draenei. If you need material to work on, I acquired some pictures of different buildings in Frostfire Ridge of Iron Horde construction and Draenei buildings (like the Temple of Karabor) when I played the demo of WoD at Blizzcon. If you like I could post them up in Imgur and maybe you can begin with a some what of a basis?

 

[redotter2]

Are you going to make Blood Elf buildings?

 

[The_Legion]

Are you going to make Blood Elf buildings?

I think he won't because SinisterX already covered that race set and if you look at his album he is starting some High Elf buildings

And just like that, here is the set XD

 

[Forsaken]

This new building is just awesome! Good work!

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Anyways, does anybody already have a hold over WoD Alpha stuff.

 

[Heinvers]

Looks pretty ingenious.

 

[redotter2]

Really Pretty! I really love the way the eleven buildings turned out! I like theses more than the ones that where posted to be honest. The Forsaken buildings are my most favorite. Is there anyway you could do an Undead version of Forsaken? I mean with Undead build (summoning) and gold mine.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Ujimasa, that Elf stuff is really impressive. I like the style, the variety, and the systematic thematic climactic ...ness.

I couldn't agree more.

[Heinvers]

That's pretty greatly wrapped Ujimasa. I'm curious how will the shipyard and laboratory look like :3

 

[Kyrbi0]

Very interesting. Missing the "tech-iness" I think we've come to expect from Goblins, but the wrapping is, as usual, excellent. I can appreciate the mild-tech-itude coming off of the base.

 

[Go'el]

Ooh I love those! Very usefull and 'cute' :3

 

[NelsonLaJe]

I believe that for the Goblins of the Bilghtwater Cartel. It would be nice to darken the metal constructions. but for a neutral faction of goblins would be perfect these xD

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

I'm gonna be uploading mini MPQ packs for each set so that it is easier to download them. I won't be posting individual icon download links.
