Terraining Contest #7 - Small World

[~Void~]

The naga seem really randomly placed, like they are just standing there in the middle of nowhere for no reason at all.

 

[syltman]

I'm surprised no one made a toy train with a railroad on a table.

 

[HFR]

Now someone will come and say: "Hey,. nice idead! I'll make one!"

Unfortunatly, I wouldn't say that, because I already got an idea.

[Ziggen]

[Megafyr]

The first picture is a WIP, The second picture is my final.

 

[Revolve]

Megafyr... Lovely!

 

[Slaydon]

is it too late to join?

 

[~Void~]

The deadline is in the OP.

 

[HFR]

Not late, as I didn't even started mine. I'll... tomorrow...

 

[Ziggen]

WIP. The helicopter model is an import.

Awesome. Really cool perspective, feels like you're very high up in the air!

 

[Slaydon]

Small Wip

Okay, im focusing on a small village, and here you can see it, and how the size of a peasant is compared.

[~Void~]

Megafyr it's nice but it doesn't really fit the theme...

 

[Slaydon]

Oh, i forgot to tell you, that part of the picture, its the palace and meant to be that big

 

[HFR]

WIP. The helicopter model is an import.

NOOO! You stole my secret idea!!!!

Wait...

Megafyr it's nice but it doesn't really fit the theme...

Ehhh... At least I'll have time to change mine

 

[Megafyr]

Haha. Then I have to admit that you got a nice idea. ; )

But, meh.. Small world? For the giant stone dude the world is small. I don't really see why it doesn't fit. : (

 

[HFR]

Void smoke some void, he's quite crazy lately, saying nonesense things, dying at the chat, etc. I think yours is very good, and fits the theme. Bad for me, as I'll have to think in something. And fast.

Just one small thing:

Lulz

I HAZ MORE POSTS THAN LIONESS!!! TAKE THAT!!

 

[Megafyr]

I can PM you my other Idea which I didn't use if you want. xD

 

[HFR]

If you want, I'm open to ideas!

Your idea has 99% of chances to be better than mine

 

[raid1000]

voids vision of a small world is a stupid city inside a globe and no other idea
but to hell with it, i could still make a car out of doodads and get 0 points for theme and still win

 

[HFR]

That's why he can't smoke his void anymore. I already got an idea, and I'll put it into pratic. IT'SA WAR!!!!

 

[raid1000]

updated the lights check it out
click

 

[Wolfhelm]

Love that terrain raid1000, cogs seem a bit too spamed - doesnt look like they all do somthing, but who the hell cares.

Megafyr that looks crazy! Also <3 that terrain - that isnt ez to make and the cammera angle is really cool.

I wouldnt judge the theme too harshly in anyones terrain because it would be gay if everyone made a city in a bubble.

 

[Ziggen]

Isn't it the theme you should judge the most? I thought contests where made for terrainers to mainly develop their terrains around the theme.

 

[Wolfhelm]

Yeah and some people say raid1000 terrain doesnt fit the theme and some say Megafyr terrain doesnt either, well they look like they fit the theme to me. Im not gonna be anal about it - thats all im saying.

 

[~Void~]

Well you shouldn't ignore it, either.

 

[FrIkY]

Holy shit... raid1000... you're the God in making terrains. No, you're Chuck Norris in making terrains.

 

[Gilles]

Void, in my opinion Megafyr's terrain fits.

Create an image representing a world from the perspective of something much larger, for example a god, a titan, or whatever...

I realize it says perspective, but I still feel you could interpret it the way Megafyr did.

 

[~Void~]

Yeah but imo it's kind of an uncreative loophole for the theme.

 

[67chrome]

This looks like an interesting contest

Here's my idea so far . . .

 

[~Void~]

Lmao, that's awesome. Could use different tiles though.

 

[HFR]

That's win, but I agree with Void, it needs more tile variation. Also, what perspective is that? A giant space alien?

 

[Linaze]

The idea is awesome, but the execution is lacking at the moment. I'll comment further on it when it's closer to near-finished state (I'm assuming this is an early wip).

 

[Slaydon]

no comments about my terrain :0?

 

[Revolve]

@Slaydon:

Your terrain isn't beautiful. First of all, the size. Look at the tiles; you can have exactly no tile variation in the little city, because you have made the city so damn small. For next time, try to make the city at usual size, and then make huge trees instead. Also the background is very meh, you can see the end of the world, no sky, no tile variation and horrible trees.
About the city though, the Archways looks rather randomly placed and there isn't so much to it right now, just 4 doodads being used.

Also the idea ain't perfect, can't see why a city would exist on a flat ground with a peasent next to it ^^

Sorry for hard critics, just keep on working

 

[Slaydon]

Revolve, its supposed to be a Really small village, im thinking of creating a Mecanich lab around it, or make it inside a Glass box inside a large building

EDIT: 2 more Wips

WIP2

1

2

 

[Nbah]

What do you mean Megafyrs terrain doesn't fit with theme. First thing that came up to me when hearing Small World was a city being crushed by a giant monster, but then again not very original.

 

[Slaydon]

I added more wips, but i got another problem, how to do so my doodad is placed in another direction, i want it to be like this:

_____
_____

not

[syltman]

Rotate them? with ctrl + left click.

 

[Slaydon]

No, i want a Vine lyiing

 

[syltman]

No, i want a Vine lyiing

Oh... in the object editor you need to set something there to a negative number by holding Ctrl. I think it was pitch angle or something.

 

[Slaydon]

Nope, no respond from doing that

 

[Gilles]

Arch spam much? It's a little overkill.

 

[Slaydon]

Ill variate them later :d

 

[Ziggen]

Nope, no respond from doing that

Hold shift and click the Art - Maximum Pitch Angle, and type in -1.57. Then the vine should lie down.

 

[syltman]

yah this was what I meant... just cba look it up :S

 

[Slaydon]

nope still staying

 

[~Void~]

What do you mean Megafyrs terrain doesn't fit with theme. First thing that came up to me when hearing Small World was a city being crushed by a giant monster, but then again not very original.

Because it's supposed to be like a smaller world inside a larger world, not just some huge giant monster standing next to a bunch of regular-sized buildings.

I'm honestly starting to think I should just stop hosting themed contests and just let people make whatever the fuck they want, because nobody seems to care about what the theme actually is now...

 

[Revolve]

Revolve, its supposed to be a Really small village, im thinking of creating a Mecanich lab around it, or make it inside a Glass box inside a large building

What I meant was, instead of making the doodads extremely small, make the trees extremely big. Then you can use tile variation, which it lacks now.

 

[Gilles]

If you feel that way, kick people out when they aren't "on theme". Although I still say he's within the theme.
