Bayou

[johannesr]

Haven't created any non-contest terrain for awhile, so here. Feedback is always welcome

EDIT: Added the new and improved Bayou 2.0!

That sure is nice terrain you've made there.
Perhaps try to do a little work with the lights, currently they just look like heat.

I really like how the background looks and is, so kudos for that.

I like what you did with the trees (are those vines rope doodads?).

Anyways, they're really nice models and don't deserve to be put next to Blizzard's horrible lantern and dock models. You should see about getting better models for those (I know they're out there).

 

[johannesr]

Theyre Wire models from some modern models pack somewhere in this forum. I'll try looking around for better models for the dock and lantern.

Mind if I can get a link for the wire models since I wanna try making something like this because it frankly is just awesome and inspired me.

Well what can we say? You've rendered us speechless! Very nice terrain, the only thing that bugs me are the yellow glows in the foreground, they just don't seem natural to me for some reason.

 

[johannesr]

Well theyre supposed to be fireflies

 

[AyeKantSpel]

Ah, guess I'll just have to deal with it, around here the fire flies are a bit more of an orangeish color.

I like it a lot. It doesn't miss a thing, nor it is burdened with extra material, just like it should be. Good job ^_^

 

[The_Olorin]

Looking good. I especially like how you fogged the backround, makes it look very mysty what ya can find in fantasy swamp all over world xD.

Keep it going!

Looks very nice and has a perfect atmosphere. The camera angle is good and the terrain itself gives a mystical kind of feeling i like what you've done with the fog and the trees in the background look nice. +rep

 

[johannesr]

Update! Came across some awesome models, doesn't it look miles better now?

 

[Oziris]

Looks a lot better now. Good work! ^^

 

[SuperElement]

Agreed, nice update. I'm still not sure if I like the lighting change on the surroundings, but it definately is an improvement.

 

[HFR]

Great terrain and atmosphere, it's a lot better with new doodads too. Great work.

Now work that same magic on the lamp post.

 

[johannesr]

Whats wrong with the lamp post?

 

[fladdermasken]

Whats wrong with the lamp post?

The texture quality of that model in comparison to those new ones you used is very poor.

 

[frostloh]

Excellent use of lighting. How did you make the lamp post's glow affect the cattails and the bridge?

 

[johannesr]

I used light models instead of glows.
