The Picture, take 2!

[~Void~]

The Picture: Take 2!

You all know how this works.

For those who don't, I will post a picture and a map. You have to finish the terrain. There are some rules though...

- Objects in the picture cannot be hidden via raising terrain or putting them behind things, or any other way.
- You may not resize doodads already placed.
- The camera angle cannot be changed.
- Distinctive height variation must stay the same or similar.

+ You may change the tileset.
+ You may tint the doodads already placed.

After a week, I will judge all the terrains we have for the current theme and announce a "winner". There is no award for winning other than the satisfaction of kicking everyone else's asses and the chance of getting into the Legendary thread.

 

[NinjasDontFight]

Lulz, nice that you brought it back!

 

[~Void~]

Hm, well I made one to get you guys thinking.

Heaven and Hell:

 

[Ribenamania]

Good idea and nice picture up there. =)

 

[Gilles]

Nice. Perhaps I'll try this!

 

[~Void~]

I'd like to see you start terraining again Gilles.

 

[thedeathunterxx]

lol, Void's is fukin awsome.

thiz idea is awsome too

but i dont know if i could do one... i mean i kinda stopped terraining...
my life iz a fukin crazy ass coaster :/

but fuck i might try if i get free time.

 

[Gilles]

I'd like to see you start terraining again Gilles.

But then I'll just disappoint everyone!

 

[Oziris]

This looks good and not so boring. I am going to try it.
Edit:
My WIP:

 

[Gilles]

Way to copy Void.

 

[Belgarath]

Nice copying void, with worse execution...

 

[Ribenamania]

I diden't copy void, wtf? nothing is same. Mine is Northrend-Felwood.

Dude, the idea was already copying. =(

 

[Celaquil]

We-hey! My baby is reborn
Though, you should tell in some point that this was all my idea from the start! I did the first "The Picture" !

I might join in, though I cant promis anything right now ^^

 

[hawk_767]

Ok. so here's my submission. I tried to keep the camera angle at as close to the original as possible.

"Pathway to the Great Denizen's Crystal. He who shall unlock the crystals secrets, shall be imbued with power."

 

[Celaquil]

Nice pic hawk, yet you broke the rules! And the rules is about what makes this kind of challenge so special ! :O

 

[Gilles]

What rule did he break?

 

[~Void~]

He didn't break any rule, actually. :\

 

[hawk_767]

Are we following the rules from just what void posted or are we using the original pictures rules to?

 

[3rgytr54]

I'll give it a go, for sh**s and giggles

 

[~Void~]

Are we following the rules from just what void posted or are we using the original pictures rules to?

The rules I stated are similar if not the same. Use the ones I posted.

 

[hawk_767]

Ok. well then I believe I didn't break any rules. hope to see more submissions.

 

[3rgytr54]

Also, can we use units in any shape or form?

 

[hawk_767]

Um going by the rules and what I've seen from the original "the picture" you can use anything as long as it doesnt change the terrain's height, hide the doodads in the picture given, or any imported items that you've downloaded. but yes in any way shape or form you may use items

 

[3rgytr54]

Alright thanks

 

[Celaquil]

Well Hawk, you did, again it is a little mistake and that might be the reason people didnt notice Your camera angle is a bit different from the one Void set, you know, he made a camera so that you could find the exact angle he sat from before

But hell, this is Void's competition right now, so I wont give a damn, if Void accept it then its fine by me ^^

 

[3rgytr54]

Ok, here it is... Not sure if it is still a wip

I built on ~void~'s idea, a lot

(The blueish things in the top left are waterfall (2) under "water"

 

[Belgarath]

Well, actually, that's famous's idea...

 

[~Void~]

Ah, shut the fuck up. Famous should be honored that someone was inspired by or had a similar idea as his. As I am with Oziris making a version of my terrain

 

[3rgytr54]

Hm, well I made one to get you guys thinking.

Heaven and Hell:

This is where I saw it.

Ah, shut the fuck up. Famous should be honored that someone was inspired by or had a similar idea as his. As I am with Oziris making a version of my terrain

You tell'em ~Void~

 

[Gilles]

Ah, shut the fuck up. Famous should be honored that someone was inspired by or had a similar idea as his. As I am with Oziris making a version of my terrain

Carful with the flaming there. I'll let it slide because of the ''.

Also Famous was the first to really pull it off well, and this is a super close copy, just like Oziris'.

 

[Belgarath]

Why exactly are you telling me to shut the fuck up anyway...?

IMO, the terrain is alright, but the abre trees in between and the different sky make it look a little strange, as well as the bad overgo from tile to tile (dimension to dimension).

 

[hawk_767]

I think it looks good but, yes the terrain does look a little odd with the trees in between, and a few of the areas look a little blank.
And as to my camera angle, I'm knew at this competition and didn't know there was a set camera angle saved. I'll remember that next time. Hope mines still in the competition, not that I'll win with some of the terrains so far though =p.

 

[viiva]

My try

 

[Gilles]

Interesting take, but the execution could be better. Try a darker and heavier fog. Perhaps use the glow doodad.

Also please don't post huge pictures like that, upload them instead. I did it for you this time, next time I'll just delete the image.

 

[viiva]

Sorry i'm new to this place

 

[LordDz]

Looks very similar to this:

Can't join yours.. I suck at terraining

 

[Celaquil]

No, LordDz... It doesnt look similar at all... <.<

Well... Its more similar than a model competition and a terrain one but still, its a whole different theme, rule-set and actually execution as a whole... <.<

EDIT:

Heres my picture.

The original The Picture was around WAY before pass the map.

 

[NinjasDontFight]

I think the statue should be darker/greenish + shrubs/vines around it Raid

 

[Ribenamania]

Hmm.. I think I'll take a try in this..
BEWARE HIVILIANS.. Ribenamania shall make a picture. =)

 

[SimonKurciski]

Well, here's mine. If it doesn't measure up, please tell me what's wrong with it.

[-Spirit Hunter-]

I love this "The Picture" shit!
Thanks for putting this up ~Void~!

I might join, but I won't be able to post anything till tommorow...

 

[Ziggen]

I'll join this one, I'll begin right away.

EDIT: Done

EDIT:2 First pic is edited, 2:nd is the original.

 

[Celaquil]

I pity you Void <.<

Having to have to judge all these terrains

 

[syltman]

Imma going to sign up to the next picture, I can't get any ideas from this one

 

[Celaquil]

So, Void, when do the judging fall? <.<

EDIT: Saw it was one week, damn, thats too long, I dont think theres going to be any more major joinings... >.>

 

[~Void~]

Revan's and Ziggen's are the best so far, imo. Keiji's is nice too.

I just think, Ziggen, you could make those trees that aren't pines a good amount bigger, place them more towards the other trees (with pines in front maybe), and tint them darker.

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

I'll be doing one!
When I have time :S (Haven't done terrains lately, so don't expect anything above average D

 

[Celaquil]

XereX! Its a long time since a saw you around

 

[~Void~]

Woot! More good terrainers coming back.
