Terraining Contest #17 - Afterlife Realms

[Edge45]

Took mr. Heinvers suggestion

WiP 9

 

[Heinvers]

WiP 9

Much much better now.

Now with that out of the way, you could construct more of that citadel thingy in the background(try to expand it more).
Emphasize that(like some gates of hell I presume).

Also, ever tried adding some faint souls or skeletons littered around?

Edit: Maybe even adding some low height ruins in the mid-ground(not too much though) to bring more attention to the fact that all hopes and dreams are shattered once you approach/enter hell.
Give it a try and experiment to see what fits best your terrain.

 

[Bernkastel]

Kind of lost motivation because reasons, but I'll get it done.

 

[Heinvers]

Pff, you made more progress than I did in a whole month.
Looking hot, literally ^^

 

[Majkowski]

Kind of lost motivation because reasons, but I'll get it done.

This actually looks really great!

 

[Dr. House]

So it's still possible to participate?

 

[Celaquil]

Yes, and hi.

 

[Dr. House]

Yes, and hi.

Hey good to see you are still active on this site

 

[Heinvers]

*doesn't see fladdermasken's entry anywhere*

Cool.

*can't see his own entry either*

Double cool.

*sees Dr. House show up and possibly making an entry*

Hello there

5 days eh? Sweet. So I'm' either doing something or something's gone terribly wrong here. Shit's fishy around. *sniff*

Real men do everything in one sitting.

 

[Edge45]

Ok, I think I got the rest of the days busy, soo, this will be my final submission, really,

WiP 10

Inferno The Inferno is a realm where creatures of blazing flame, agony and hatred roams. The land is hot, flowing from its valleys are great burning lava. Its nearby ruins are cursed and hunted. And within the center lies its heart, Mount Inferno, where lies the auction house of the Reapers and Demons.

 

[APproject]

^ The upper part of terrain that is covered with fog looks quite really good, but the lower part of the screenshot could use a little bit more detail in my opinion.

 

[Arad MNK]

few days to the end and still no judges...

 

[Paillan]

We really need to move the deadline to get a judge.

 

[Bernkastel]

Finding the judges doesn't really determine whether a contest can end or not.

 

[Arad MNK]

Good point.

 

[Paillan]

actually, it does. How can the contest end if there's no judge?

 

[Arad MNK]

When the contest ends you'll see.

 

[Celaquil]

When the contest ends, the poll begins, during the poll we'll find judges.

We also do have some ideas for who to ask, I don't think it'll be a problem.
Fladder will probably step in himself if he doesn't enter.

 

[APproject]

It's sad entries are not flowing like in a previous contest.

 

[Bernkastel]

Hardly surprising.

Either way. Here's my shit. Rushed it to the end with a lot of black, two underground domes, and way too many squares of squarines.
I'm not what one could call satisfied, but there's no helping it.

Not to mention that the things above the lava falls look out of place but. BIfalflsfgugffifilao is my final statement about this case.

 

[Heinvers]

How about 'Cradle of Broken Hopes' or 'Pits of Despair' ?

Also, hell NO to those cloud models stretched like that.
Work more on that, there's still a day left.

 

[Bernkastel]

But moooooom.

 

[Heinvers]

No BUT dear. Get your lessons done.

If I were you, I'd change those squaresquare paththingies into some stone instead of something random. Else it looks great, but there are some waterfall failures (this may include lighting) and those stretched cloud SFX is destroying me.

EDIT:

My final Entry:

The Hall of Judgement My Final Entry Here, is where people are decided, and it is time for his trial. Were he friendly enough? or he opressed others? Did he do the right thing? or he Offensed their friends? If he was the right human, he shall find salvation, after the door. Else, Evil and hell await him... under his feet. Will he reach salvation?

 

[Heinvers]

Anyways, so far we have these as final entries:

APproject with Immortal

AradMNK with The Hall of Judgement

Bernkastel with his Gates of Hell (me thinks)

Edge45 with Inferno

Keiji with Soul Society

Majkowski with The Frozen Hell

PublishedShadow with Hellmouth

 

[Moy]

I really like Bernkastel's entry <3
And Keiji's too

 

[Strydhaizer]

APproject with Immortal

AradMNK with The Hall of Judgement

Bernkastel with his Gates of Hell (me thinks)

Edge45 with Inferno

Keiji with Soul Society

Majkowski with The Frozen Hell

PublishedShadow with Hell Afterlife (still a WIP)

You have to include your entry too.

 

[Heinvers]

As you may have noticed, it's not finished and honestly it won't be.
I don't really want to deliver a rushed entry like I did last time(also not to mention the lack of motivation for it).

 

[Strydhaizer]

I don't really want to deliver a rushed entry like I did last time.

But you included PublishedShadow's entry which is not finished too.
Be Fair, Hein.

 

[PublishedShadow]

Actually, You can go ahead and use that as my final entry since this ends today. I haven't had any extra time to work on it this past weekend.

I'll edit that post when I get home to be a final entry post.

Still had ideas of what I wanted to do just no time to do it this weekend. What I get for slacking
Either way it was an alright practice I suppose.

Wish I had at least finished the fog/clouds :/

EDIT** Entry Post updated

 

[Arad MNK]

Isn't the Contest officially over?

 

[Heinvers]

Isn't the Contest officially over?

Officially it is. Can't you see the deadline date?
Now somebody has to make the poll and then judge the entries.

 

[Arad MNK]

Aaaaaaaand who?

 

[Heinvers]

Either the host or one of the Jury members.
It would pay off if you could have a slight amount of patience.

This is not a racing track.

 

[APproject]

Even Heinvers or Strydy could do it, I believe they are experienced enough. It's sad they did not take part though.

 

[Arad MNK]

So... Should I create the poll now?

 

[Strydhaizer]

You're a contestant and you dont have the right to make a poll.

To be honest, i really wanted to join but the problem is the month of September is my busiest month (or probably not only me). Why not extending this contest until November? November have alot of free time and holidays anyway.

 

[Heinvers]

So... Should I create the poll now?

As I said, poll will be made by a Jury member not by some random user.

About extension, well it's kinda late for that as you may have noticed(isn't it?).
fladdermasken's off the hook since last week(real life stuff I suppose) and I don't reckon he'll reply too soon.

 

[fladdermasken]

THINK AGAIN, MUFFIN.

I've had unseen stuff take up my to-do list for a few days now. Sometimes stuff has a way of amplifying itself, and I honestly pushed this place and this contest from my gray matter so I could focus on this stuff.

Guess I'm happy only one or two people lost their shit while I was gone.

Will get the poll up and running in a few days. Since I couldn't get an entry out, I'll take up my role as grand juror. Heinvers has also signed up for judging.

 

[Edge45]

Well, here's our judge now

 

[Heinvers]

Well, here's our judge now

Beware, your terrain still has some inconsistencies.
It will be nitpicked with a jackhammer by me.

Keep your eyes open :V

Even Heinvers or Strydy could do it, I believe they are experienced enough. It's sad they did not take part though.

Some themes are just that 'great' to make for me.
It heavily depends on motivation and some powder of imagination that a contest can give.

If those ingredients are not there or rather found in unsatisfying quantities then it will surely/possibly not work(sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't).

It's all about having fun while working to make a theme based terrain.
You just need the right stuff to make it work I guess

 

[fladdermasken]

Poll.

Good luck. /Thread
