I want to show a WIP of a cinematic map for my proyect. It will be some kind of forest-themed temple. For now, I just made the entrance bridge, and a little part of the frontal gate.
I need your suggestions and opinions. How is it going?

What do you think?
I would appreciate opinions that help to finish the work and to fill all the empty space that map has right now. I already have some ideas in mind, but I also want to know the opinion of experienced terrainers.

Regards

Reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus for some reason... Can you link to where you downloaded those models?

It would look even better with some vines or foliage hanging down from the bridge towards the water.

Shadow of the Colossus? Maybe! Hey, I think I can get some inspiration from that. :)

Some of the models were downloaded from The Hive, here are the links:

The rest of them are from the UTM.

And I have to say that I like very much the idea of the hanging vines! I'll search for adequate models, and give it try.

Still looking good but it looks like it could use giant vines and tree roots growing over the rocks and hanging down over the entrance to make it look really old and forest-e-er.

Yeah, I suppose that the vines are the trick to make it look older...
But it's hard for me to find good-looking vines. The vines in the UTM are too small for that entrance (I would need to scale them up, making them look blurred and pixeled), and I don't know if a lot of small vines will look good.
Do you know where could I find some good vines for this?

You could try editing the World Tree model and take the roots from there, duno other than that tho.
