WH40K Concepts.

[Legion87]

These are a few building concepts I am using for the Hive World missions in my Warhammer 40,000 campaign, Space Marine: Imperial Splendor. So naturally, I went for a futuristic gothic look.
These are not from any of the actual missions, but they have all been used in the actual missions and I've made quite a few others.
A couple for Administratum districts, industrial yards, and an Imperial Guard station.
Tell me what you guys think! Critics more than welcome to bash out your thoughts.

its playable right?
looks pretty good
+rep for u

 

[Legion87]

its playable right?

Absolutely.

 

[FrIkY]

Looks quite good, for a playable map, but maybe some more enviroment doodads would be useful

 

[CDW_NiteMare]

Omg Thats why i love you!
Soo awesome can't wait to play.

 

[Sabertooth]

It looks nice, but I'd try to tint those dark-blue bricks closer to the tint of the white ones, they really stand out. Extremely nice otherwise.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Great stuff! I hope you will finish your project. Looks very good so far.

I guess you will play with imperium, who will be opponents then?

 

[Legion87]

There will be a lot to do with the Orks, and a lot more to do with Tyranid. Possibly a Chaos appearance.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Not only it's playable but it's great too!

 

[NinjasDontFight]

Is it like normal view? Or first person view? Was wondering if you could go inside the buildings!?

It will have a third person camera that you will be able to turn on/off. There will be buildings you will be able to walk and fight through, those won't have roofs for the sake of being able to see inside.You'll be walking through a lot of towers and such as well.

this sucks! fuck you man go to hell.. you wasted my day with me drooling over your fucking awesome terrain! keep it up! I love it

 

[Ghost765]

hmm, not bad. alot of attention to detail.
however, whenever i look at city-fight art for wh40k, i always see towering buildings, much taller than the ones u have there. its just a suggestion, but if possible, i recommend making future buildings alot taller.
i think itll make the player feel small, which is what they should feel in a wh40k universe
few ripped doodads, but thats fine.

Not to worry, there are some very tall and towering structures in the works.

 

[Ghost765]

hmm, is this an actual world in the universe? or just a made up one from your head?

 

[Legion87]

I will be making some worlds from my own head, but there will also be worlds that are directly from the 40K star map. There may or may not be a chapter based on Holy Terra as some sort of finale, but this will depend on how I complete the story as it is about 75% complete.

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Lol Legion, I never knew you could terrain so well. Nice job

 

[Ghost765]

the imperial fists are based on terra.

 

[Legion87]

the imperial fists are based on terra.

Haha I know that. When I said chapter I didn't mean a SM chapter, I meant as in a final group of missions. : )

 

[Ghost765]

oh. have necrons somewhere. or more intrestingly...cypher (darkangel). since hes going to terra.
necrons since one of the star-gods is under mars, home to the adeptus mechanicus.

 

[Mor)L(unE]

Looks sweet!

 

[Cham[p]ion]

It really doesn't feel very Warhammer like to me at all. Looks like a Wc3 city. Then again, to your credit, every Imperial City ive ever seen is completely destroyed, as seen in the game Dawn of War... so I don't really know what a non destroyed one looks like.

But if you plan on making a Warhammer 40k campaign, it needs to be more:

Dark
Gothic
Destroyed
Hopeless

Keep it up. =)

 

[Legion87]

These are only concepts, I do have versions of them destroyed as well. Not all of the missions will be taking place on war torn worlds, as I've decided to go with a Dark Angels successor chapter, so there will be a widespread of different types of missions. Not to worry glory seekers, there will be a hefty amount of epic battles and war torn worlds as well.
If anyone has suggestions as to how I can make my designs look more gothic than they already are, please share your thoughts. Adding a lot of statues of different type is one thing I've done, but what else?

 

[CDW_NiteMare]

ahhhh Dark Angels, A Dark Green if i am not mistaken.

 

[Revan(Rom)]

sry but i dont like them

 

[Legion87]

Blasphemer!

 

[Ghost765]

u need stone gargoyles, and other dark things. the imperium is an unforgiving and uncaring empire.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Blasphemer!

it's actually an opinion.

 

[Mechanical Man]

every Imperial City ive ever seen is completely destroyed, as seen in the game Dawn of War... so I don't really know what a non destroyed one looks like.

Heh, I wonder how the unharmed buildings actually look like too. xD

 

[Legion87]

There are plenty of illustrations in the codex books and elsewhere, though I do admit it's not easy to find. Check out this video of leaked footage of the WH40K action/rpg - Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine.
I think they did really well on capturing the feel of the Imperium's architecture. And yes, this is some of my inspiration xD

[Belgarath]

sry but i dont like them

Blasphemy! Give reasons or it will NEVER be true!

 

[Ghost765]

well... first off...
1. no greenskinz
2. wherez da orkz?
3. WAAAGH

post more SS

 

[CDW_NiteMare]

Nah.Let him do it the way he likes it.

 

[Legion87]

Sorry guys, I've been busy with classes and things of the like so I haven't had a ton of extra time to work on this. I HAVE been slowly progressing on it though and it's not dead.
Will post some updated screens within the next day or so.

 

[CDW_NiteMare]

Legion got pwned by school =P

And DoW DC hahahahahahah

 

[bobo11]

Not another warhammer game.

 

[Ghost765]

fack you bobo. go 40k. and there arent that many wc3 40k games out there. just wh40k td...and...and...thats it.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Maybe he's scared because all wh40k maps suck.

 

[Legion87]

Not another warhammer game.

Oh? Well considering WarCraft was copied from Warhammer, and will never ever be able to compare to Warhammer, and StarCraft was copied from Warhammer 40,000, then perhaps you should stop playing Blizzard's media bastard offsprings of the games you apparently dislike so much?

 

[Wolle]

Thats like saying the present day is copied from science fiction and LoTR was copied from medival times imo. There is a thing called inspiration that has been around for some years, i suggest you read up on it.

As for as the terraining: really good job for something playable, my only suggestion would be to tint the arches so that they blend better in with your walls and tiles

Edit: i almost forgot to rep ya, here you go +

Under normal circumstances I would agree. But before Blizzard even began developing WarCraft they went to Games Workshop and tried to get them to give them the license to make Warhammer rather than WarCraft. Games Workshop looked at what they were trying to do, laughed, and said no.

Thanks for the rep
There are actually multiple shaded archways and things of the like. Update tomorrow.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Too bad then that all blizz games are a success, while all warhammer games except Dawn of war suck.

 

[Wolle]

Hm, I didnt know that was the case. But i meant the arches above the doors, they seem to stick out abit from the general colour scheme.

 

[Revan(Rom)]

Its bad for just terrain,but its normal for ingame terrain

As it should be a terrainshowcase : i would give 10/100
As project : 45/100
