i_brg_doom's terrain
33181d1216065947-picture-tauren-fields.jpg


Not a good piece, as it has some obvious flaws that meet the eye at first glance:
- The sun touches the mountain, clearly visible that it is too much in front
- The contrast between the white fog and the blue sky is disturbing and plain impossible
- The tile variation is basically not present
- The river is kind of out of place, as it is too shallow and looks like a line of puddles
- Trees don't match the main tile
- End of the world is sort of visible

Other than that the terrain is extremely barren and unnatural looking. No plant life visible, no rocks. Nothing to suggest the word nature.
Moving on to...

Sabertooth's terrain

This one has some strong flaws as well:
- Rock spam, you know we hate it
- End of the world kinda visible at top left corner
- Tile seen under the forest, doesn't match the theme
- Cobble path doesn't really match those rocks making it sort of awkward there.
- Top right corner is messy. I can't understand what's going on up there.

This piece has overall much better lighting and fog usage though. It is not barren and has a more realistic atmosphere to it.


THUS => Sabertooth wins.

The Picture #5

Keiji's dead, so I'm hosing this one.

So, here's the rules. They will be more strict than Keiji's 'cause I'm not in the mood for kiddie games.
Probably you've noticed the two robe bridges ridiculously flying in the air. Well, this time you cannot lower them, you cannot shrink them, you cannot rotate them. What you have to do is find a way to connect them to.. anything practical, and add a good atmosphere around them.

The other rules about using the given camera and shit still count.

Good luck and remember,


THIS IS THE PICTURE...bitches.

Hah! :p I was more funny than Frost?! :p We like!!! :D:D:D

Lol ya, I prefer to have serious disscussions/stuff, but some humor in it. Some people just have to have pure serious, even if the thread does go awry. I always go back to the normal discussion. But I can understand that most people don't that. But I'm confused, when that happens, why not give a warning, and if they don't listen. Or request to be have this moved to a dump type of area. Where the thread(s) that had serious discussion can be moved to a area just for us to do whatever we want to talk about.
