My First Terrain Scene

[FrOzEnInTiMe]

When I made this I was thinking town rising out of the water but i guess it could be a lot of things
Let me know what you guys think be honest I can take it
btw this was done with warcraft editor(not unlimited) and no custom stuff
-edited top are befores bottom are afters

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

How about you add fog, skies and weather effects?

 

[kebabmeat]

I think it's really good. Keep it up man, I really want to see
some more of this

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

What are you talking about kebabmeat? Have you gone blind?

Sorry to say but this is really really bad and generic, frozenintime. I can't even tell how to improve, just create something entirely new.

 

[kebabmeat]

I mean for being the first terrain it's really good, but if he had terrain
alot of time before, then I agree with you.

You can take it eh?

A) Try to never use Blizzard cliffs, they are really ugly.
B) Doodad the crap out of terrains (generally).
C) Use tile variation, even in cities, which can be hard.
D) Please don't make everything so square and boxy. No town is perfectly square like that. Give it character, and shape.
E) The tavern building does not suit the others at all!
F) Set a sky and a fog.
G) Don't take screens showing the edges of the map, unless there is no way around it.
H) Don't leave the grass outside blank. Terrain around the city as well.

This isn't the worst I've seen though! Keep improving.

A decent terrain. Pretty much everything Gilles said is what I would say so... I recommend you do the following of what his post recommends.

[Belgarath]

J) Get better angles
K) Add a weather effect

 

[Gilles]

Oh yeah, and better angles, but weather doesn't really matter.

Add some fog, and dont make it square like they all said, do what everyon said basicly lol, and ya keep trying and you will get better in time.

[Craka_J]

Major improvements. Great work! The entrance of the little village needs some work though. Looks too plain and needs more decoration. (Area with gate)

[kebabmeat]

It's really pretty good improvement. But do that Craka_J said

 

[nightelf_frenzy]

very nice for your first my first was like a small forest that got only like 50 doodads that out of right place

 

[kebabmeat]

50 doodads? Was that a map that was 10x10 or less?

 

[nightelf_frenzy]

no just used a small area because i was noob back then

 

[gavdaman88]

For a first it's good when you improved it... but the village would be better as an 'island' so less square. More original than the generic forest first terrains though so thumbs up for taking a risk.

 

[flamdo]

that hurt man =(
xD ya square+blizzard cliffs is bad
