Terraining Contest #13 - Fictional World Wonder

[Ahimtar]

okey, i dont have time for this, i was about to try to create something like arcane observatory on some isle a bit like the frozen throne menu screen

 

[fladdermasken]

You have till 29th of August, should be plenty of time

 

[Risk.frishers]

Okay, so the base is almost done... Soon. I think, basicly I wanna see if it's allowed. Ob.s. It's not done, so don't comment in any way.

 

[Ketsuno Anson]

another wip
not sure which is the best angle to take the screeshot :/

wip

ps: image uploaded to imageshack for the same reason as before :c

That theme is kinda overused,you might not get much points for that...

 

[Ahimtar]

You have till 29th of August, should be plenty of time

thats true, ill see later

 

[Figueiredo00]

well, i have one idea, but i need answers to some questions.

my idea is create a floating mountain, with a city on it

so, on the surface of the mountain i will make a castle, walls, towers, mixing with the rocks of the mountain. INSIDE the mountain, i'm planning to create a city. in other words, the terrain will be divided in the mountain floating in the skies ,and the underground city .

my question is, the whole terrain will be judged or just the mountain and the castle? we are suposed to create just a concept or we can explore the concept and create something "solid"?

 

[fladdermasken]

You can only submit one entry, so if you can fit all that into one screenshot then be my guest.
- Of course you could always complete the concept, choose one entry to submit and upload the others separately.

Okay, so the base is almost done... Soon. I think, basicly I wanna see if it's allowed.

Nothing in there violating the rules as far as I can tell - Proceed unmolested

 

[Figueiredo00]

hmm, so the final submission it's a screenshot of the terrain ?
i thought it was the whole map.
makes the things easier and harder at the same time
ok, i will see what i can do.

 

[Xezko]

so the final submission is the whole map or just a screenshot?
and in case of being both of them, which one will be judge?

 

[Crazed_seal2]

I supose I might have a go at Terraining...

 

[fladdermasken]

9 out of 10 times the terraining contest is for terrain art, implying that your final submission will be in form of a screenshot.
See for instance Top 10/Legendary Terrains, List of Terrain Galleries and the Terrain Board in general.

so the final submission is the whole map or just a screenshot?

Screenshot. I believe I've been more than clear about this >.>
- Or perhaps I've been excessively clear, so much that my intentions backfired on me.

*Enter perplexity*.

and in case of being both of them, which one will be judge?

The challenge is to portray a piece of art, not an entire map. If you don't quite grasp the concept then just check out some earlier terraining contests.

 

[Bugz]

fast question: are we supposed to build a building that exist? or create a new one?

 

[Skycraft]

You create one that does not exist - just purely from your imagination.

 

[Bugz]

Alright, thanks

edit: i dont think i enter, i saw some others work.. and i cant compare mine..

 

[Deolrin]

Just because you don't think you're as good as someone else doesn't mean you should give up altogether.
That is, after all, what contests are for - They are for practice, and fun. When you are competing against other people, you tend to put the best of you to it; That's a fact. At least... I THINK it is... >__>

[Bugz]

[KayS]

xD Don't worry, nothing stupid at all... I know

 

[Bugz]

Alright , its good but it doesnt look like art yet :3

 

[KayS]

Alright , its good but it doesnt look like art yet :3

That's because it isn't art yet...

 

[Bugz]

That's because it isn't art yet...

Oh really i seriusly dint realize

 

[Ketsuno Anson]

I think his quoting you,not confessing...besides,you really need to improve your english

 

[Risk.frishers]

Ok, it's almost done! This will hopefully be the last WiP I post.

 

[Ketsuno Anson]

Is it me or is that thing too small,besides,how is that a "Feats of extraordinary engineering or aesthetic skill; participants are to design a fictional structure that is quite literally wondrous to behold"?

 

[Brambleclaw]

Place a man who is like 0.01 scale to show the height difference. Maybe make it a bit more interesting then blocks

 

[Jazztastic]

I think his quoting you,not confessing...besides,you really need to improve your english

Speeeeaking of English, I don't want to be a dick or anything, but you need to put a space after a comma, otherwise, it makes it hard to read

@Risk.frishers, I like the sun and the sky effects. It does look kindof small though, and not a lot of variation. Also, the hill containing a giant ass tree spam needs to go. I'd suggest more of a desert-y feel (seeing as the blocks are from Sandbox in halo 3 ). But those are justs my suggestions.

 

[fladdermasken]

Ditch the hill (make room for some background and detail), get some work done on the tiles, add some enviroment and in general shape it up
- The lighting is too well done to go with such a crappy scenery.

 

[KayS]

I think his quoting you,not confessing...besides,you really need to improve your english

I'm an artist, not an english philologist...

 

[Risk.frishers]

I see, well, it's suppose to be like a Aztec temple, thx very much for the suggestions, I was really anxious about the ligthning tbh...

 

[Brambleclaw]

Put it on a hill or create something which a depth in the background that gives it an epic feeling?

 

[Ketsuno Anson]

Speeeeaking of English, I don't want to be a dick or anything, but you need to put a space after a comma, otherwise, it makes it hard to read

Personal taste,it's fine for me

You failed a little there ..

 

[Deolrin]

Personal taste

Umm... No?
It's a grammatical mistake.

 

[Skycraft]

How about staying ON-TOPIC? >_>

Ok, it's almost done! This will hopefully be the last WiP I post.

Risk, that looks too simple.
Work on it more! Add more stuff to it!
Make the environment more pretty.

 

[Risk.frishers]

I've changed the whole concept of my wonder, and i think this wonder will stun all of you! Hopefully...

 

[Bugz]

Uhm.. no :3, unless you saved on another file earlier?

 

[fladdermasken]

Patiently awaiting more entries. Having a blast doing it.

 

[Risk.frishers]

Oh forgot to ask, is it possible to remove my first entry ? I didn't like it, I've changed my whole idea basicly.

 

[Bugz]

Update it.

 

[fladdermasken]

You may edit your entry however and whenever you see fit: as long as you have posted a final submission before the deadline everything is peaches.

 

[Risk.frishers]

Well, here it is, I think this one was a even bigger fail, but since it's 1 day left till I move to Hong Kong I'll take a small break and play HoN. I'll probably start terraining again whilst in Hong Kong.

Observate that this is a WiP.

 

[Bugz]

Interesting .. )

Mmm... U.F.O?

 

[Bugz]

then it should be in the air right?

 

[Risk.frishers]

It is in the air and itlooks like a U.F.O but I call it a fictional wonder.
