The fourth Terraining Challenge brings along an elemental theme, more specifically: The element of water. This time, we will visit the underwater world

[Oziris]

I'm doing this one, sounds fun!

 

[FamousPker49]

Maybe I'll do something.

 

[The D3ath]

(Atlantis wannabe)
oh well is interesting, maybe someday i will participate more on the hive, (when i have a new computer, not a crap of 2002)

anyway i notice that goldy terrainers are dissapearing and this should put some to the test some guys.

Good luck!

umm not to burst any bubbles but....

this has been done...i dont know if you will see any outstanding ones.

but the idea none the less is good.

and TBH, i think the reason terraniers are disappearing, or not coming up with better terrains is because the UTM is becoming Outdated. the New Rocks that we keep seeing are just one of many marvelous models that are being put to full use =/

 

[L2love]

lol death will u be in this contest? Also yes this theme has bin done but it sometimes hard 2 come up with a original fun and everybody knows about idea.

 

[CoBrA b]

Here's my entry. I'll probably update it based on whatever criticism I get, but for right now it is what it is.

Without further ado, I give you the Reef Observatory!

 

[L2love]

lol its 2 dark i think but nice use of the space ship model.

 

[The D3ath]

Wow nice, but too dark,
well im not going to be in the contest.

so maybe some1 will come up with my idea of a underwater Cave with a giant Water Dragon or something xD, well the cave was supposed to be some ruins and statues etc.

Bye

 

[Revolve]

Here's my first WIP.
It's some Makruras (=LOBSTESR) exploring ship debris and treasures.

C and C very welcome

 

[Oziris]

Rays of Moonlight with Rise of Light Doodad is an Epic Fail, Revolve.

Rays of Moonlight with Rise of Light Doodad is an Epic Fail, Revolve.

I.... see...

 

[DudeSpirit]

Just a doodad spam, i didn't quite like it.

 

[Revolve]

Heres a little update

C and C please

 

[Oziris]

Well, this looks better then the last one even tough you changed the angel. I don't like the grass, make it darker and the fog, it needs to be dark. The ocean isn't that bright!

 

[thekebecer]

Change the angle of the camera because its should be better whit a entiere view of the barrel and other wood part. And remplace the grass by another model.

 

[Revolve]

Update :3
Imma keep updating, till there's nothing more to updatem hehe. So give me your worst! What seriously needs to be changed?
And btw, how does that book look? Supposed to looklike the book have just fallen in the water and is falling down, to the bottom of the depths.

 

[Oziris]

Moar Dark!101010!!!1010

 

[thekebecer]

Seriusly I don't see the difference but I prefer it with the new camera. But in global I think it's nice.

 

[Nindira]

I really love the book falling to the ocean floor.

 

[Nan0]

Atlantis, Temple of Great Naga)

 

[Revolve]

Nan0, looks kinda nice.
Some of the doodads (The Buildings) Looks rather spammed, and misplaced. Also you should really remove the Ice, there is no ice in te water
Background looks a lil boring also, maybe work more wit ligtning and add some hills?

 

[Nan0]

Revolve, ок, thx. As I see, i have some days to upgrade my work, so let"s starting)
Where is the Ice? Do you meen Crystals?
Also I shall make better background)

 

[Nan0]

I have make background

 

[Revolve]

(Don't double post! Edit instead )
Looks better. Still, remove the crystals.
Background is a lil better, but pick a different angle so the skybox can't be seen.
Maybe make the fog a tad thicker?

 

[Nan0]

Today is 25 of october. It is meen that the challenge is end?

 

[Nan0]

revolve, but if it the temple, there are can be some magic crystals... I think so)

 

[Revolve]

Yes, the challenge should conclude today. Haven't heard much from Anarcy though, lets hope he shows up.

 

[Nan0]

Revolve, ok, wa can only wait
Offtopic: where you get this funny avatar?)

 

[Arcany]

There is still some time left for the challenge, usually I judge the entries monday morning because the challenge runs until 00:00 today (GMT)

I really like the entries so far, atm I just want to comment on Nan0's entry. The Naga statue is really creative, some parts of the terrain are really detailed and it looks quite pretty. However, some parts remain unfinished. The unfinished parts are obviously the left and right edge of the terrain, I sugest you add something there and put some last work into the details.
