[Death]'s Terrain Showcase

[[Death]]

I'd add more, except WC3C's down and all. And 75% of my terrain lies in WC3C's murky depths. I sort of regret I never really did terrain much.

 

[Cool Joe Smith]

omg, i love you, those are all awsome!, btw, where did you get teh sun model?

 

[ghenjis]

Oinkerwinkle made it I believe.

 

[operator]

Really nice +rep

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Looking good Death, as usual.

 

[Son1x-]

wow those are realy nice.

 

[Duwenbasden]

I like screen 2,4,5,6 very much.

 

[bjartmar]

congrats, you got a +rep

you really are a masterat terraining...

 

[Darkey]

Very nice. +Rep

 

[HunterWolf]

I like 2,5, and 6 best... But all of them look good. 10 times better than what I can do at the moment anyways.

 

[operator]

Yep, Please upload some more whenever you get the chance

 

[Fulla]

I like 5/6 the most.

 

[Lonely Wolf.]

nicely done. But looks like you used loads of doodads on the waterfall, wont that take alot of space?

What? I don't understand your question. Are you asking about file-size, lag, or something?

And thanks for the comments.

 

[Silvenon]

Wow those are really awsome! You're really talented +rep

 

[Herio-san]

Very well done and +rep. The angle in the first one is very artistic - even if you cant see much of the terrain itself.

 

[RedBlade]

Jeez ... i cant open them ...

 

[[Death]]

You can't? Maybe because you have JavaScript disabled? I uploaded them here for those who can't see or are too lazy to enable JavaScript.

EDIT: Hmm, I never knew The Hive had some sort of expandable image attachment. Is this new?
EDIT2: Oh, it uses JavaScript too.
EDIT3: Attached images to the first post now. Not in the same order as they were, though, so all the comments are a little off.

 

[RedBlade]

FANTASTIC !!!! They all look so great ! +rep.

 

[Craka_J]

They're all pretty much perfect! Except the second shot the guy on horse looks odd, and if he's supposed to be standing next to it then it looks very unrealistic (Men aren't taller than horses as far as I know) and the fifth one needs more environmental doodads around the grassy areas as well. Maybe use the village doodad pack in this one.

 

[undeadorcjerk]

3rd shot, how did you do that? that is kick ass.

 

[Craka_J]

I gave you +rep for your awesome terrain
Keep it up and post more!

[DarkKnight]

AAAAAH MY EYES!!! THIS IS TOO BEAUTIFULL FOR MY EYES!!!! these are the best I've seen so far, good terraining AND you know from wich positions you have to make the picture^^. +rep!

 

[Tawsix]

I've always enjoyed your work Death, keep it up!

 

[Jirinal]

Uhh a mapper that know how to work~
Ahh someone with great skills posted here, lets see if i can find something.
But dont forget everything is imho based.


1. I think there should be different ground Textures and not only one.

2. Uh where is the water coming from?^^
The Proudmoore doesnt look that good, but nice idea.
Also i think the right side looks kinda empty.

3. Too bad u hadnt used cloud models, would be a nice effect for the empty background.

4. Nothing wrong with that, but eh you dont give me much to look at

5. Something is missing, maybe ghost particle or spirit ones. Maybe souls flying through the air. This screen is the lowest qualitly of those u presented.

6. Why is the top roof blue?~
It would be nice if there would be some living creatures.

I think that is rep worthy.

 

[DarkKnight]

he criticized ze master terrainer (lol ^^)

 

[PurgeandFire]

Well, almost all terrains can be critisized. I pretty much agree with Jirinal.

Still, I think that they were very nicely made. Good job!

 

[DarkKnight]

By posting this, Death did recieve some rep didn't he? ^^

 

[Tawsix]

If you click on his name and then "View Public Profile" you can find out. I think he's earned some.

 

[DarkKnight]

He should do more of such screenies (then he might even catch more Rep ^^)

 

[MMG_God]

Real nice cinematic effects on all of those, they make you take another look haha. My only questions are did you make that house in the last screenie without imports? And...just to be a smart ass, where is that water coming from in the 2nd screenie? It seems theres a little gap at the tip of the waterfall, idk if it was intended to appear that way? As if it was coming out of the rocks or?

 

[Jirinal]

He used doodads in a smart way and sized them nicely.
Its a pain doing this and needs alot of time...

Also thanks for calling me smart

 

[DarkKnight]

Uuuhm... I don't think he meant it positivly (I could be wrong though)

 

[Jirinal]

Your statement is way more rude then his...

 

[MMG_God]

Well, I honestly had not read your previous post till now. I guess we are both smart..

asses.

 

[DarkKnight]

lol ^^ So death? care to add some more or make some more? (not that it's a factory product, just I LOVE THEM!!!)

 

[Oziris]

Hah good,good,very good the Illiden picture is great and the waterfall 7/10

 

[Ivanneth]

Oziris, stop posting random crap everywhere. Way to revive the thread, btw.

 

[Craka_J]

Bleh... since this is actually a good thread, I will let this thread revival slide. [Death] is a good terrainer and deserves the respect of his skills being remembered ^_^

But please do not revive this thread when it dies again; thank you!
~Craka_J

 

[Gilles]

Another to add to the death toll of good terrainers? Maybe it's still too soon. Death seems almost more of a cinematic terrainer. These are some pretty artsy picture, I like them a lot.

 

[DarkKnight]

I totally agree, they are awesome ^^.

 

[Pitakebab]

Those are awesome! +REP

 

[Revolve]

Good job m'friend, looking forward for more. Here are my opinions;
Picture 1: World tree? Pretty cool. I am not sure if it is supposed to mean that the tree is a the very top of a mountain, in that case it's a little plain for being top.
Picture 2: Too good, but the stones on/aside the waterall looks a little weird, but i have no ideas on how to improve. Is the water comming from under the castle or is it a small, small lake just beside?
Picture 3: That is so cool!! Probably the best screenie i have seen for a long time, and the model is pretty cool too.
Picture 4: You don't actually sees much, and i hope the whole terrain do not look exactly the same, not enough variation. But since it is what it is, good.
Picture 5: Spookie... Looks a little squarish though.
Picture 6: Nice one you are good with combining doodads (other cases i have seen too).

It looks like i am the only one that says something bad. Sorry, but i am just trying to be onest and give constructive critics, even if u are a pro terrainer. I myself i trying to become a good terrainer, and these pictures give inspiration. Which i could give +rep, but i will just approve...

 

[Craka_J]

Constructive critisism is 100% necessary, as long as you provide a reason and way for everything (Which you pretty much did)
So therefor, you're doing the right thing even if it's negative.
~Craka_J

 

[DarkKnight]

Well, then I'll just give some critics (hopefully constructive), The crows are flying in a too 'perfect' cirkel ^^, I've never seen crows do that...

 

[Craka_J]

Ah true, I've never seen hawks or crows circle their prey in that tight of a formation. Widening their circle they form will be much more realistic. Also, the birds are a bit too low as well.
~Craka_J

 

[DarkKnight]

And aren't they a bit big or is that just me? ^^

 

[Craka_J]

They don't seem too big. Though it'd be a good idea to scale the size smaller anyway.
~Craka_J

 

[Gilles]

They do look rather odd, but I doubt it will ever change. Death has been inactive for a while.

 

[Craka_J]

Yeah, true. Better off leaving him a bunch of suggestions and critisism for him to check on (if) when he returns to the Warcraft modding community.
