Nadril Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Decided to mess around with an atmo and surface map i did for some random sig yesterday :). I made a new terrain in World machine (which i thought fit the Hellish kind of idea very well) and i can say i like the terrain alot. Now, i know the clouds got screwed over, because i acidently had them on 2d (although the 3d ones wern't much better) but i tried to make them look as good as i could with post processing :). Anyways, go ahead and rate, give C&C, comment, ect. ect. :) Also, all fav's on the link to deviantart are very apreciated :D ~Nadril ps: Comments on my typo and stuff are apreciated too, more so C&C for it realy. I'm trying to get something that works :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futurama Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 First impression, not really sure about the name, sounds cheesy :P The main strong point of this is the landscape, the texture and detail are reall nice, and it's lovely and jagged. However, the sky really needs to be more birmstone/stormclouds instead of just red coloured clouds. The landscape could also use more features, maybe like decrepid trees, lava pools...though it could be out of your skill range :wink: no offense Overall it's good work, but more of a WIP. Just needs more features! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Should have stuck with the Sig's terrain ;) Need more lighting on the terrain mate. The atmo... I know it's supposed to be red... but it just looks kind of overly red... and definately not enough contrast in it. That in itself looks a bit cheesey. If you could get red rays in there, that would incredibly wicked. The surface map is great. Not much more to say... but this isn't particularly one of my favourites from you, mate. ~Cal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 Yes you guys are very true about the sky, and i can say that i did neglect it a bit because of the terrain. I also tried to fix it up a bit, but for some reason ( i think there is rays somewhere in it, like from behind, but not showing that iluminate it) made the land get that kind of brightness, which i liked alot :oops: And i actualy thought this one worked better, mostly because it was a more interesting kind of terrain. I was also trying to work on my typo a little bit (which i hope is fine :oops: ) but yes, the sky is very craptacular and i know that :P Maybe if i'm un-lazy i'll redo this with a better sky :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witty-Fool Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 The atmosphere is seriously gross. You might wanna photoshop it. ~witty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 The atmosphere is seriously gross. You might wanna photoshop it. ~witty Yeah i know it is. I might try and get around to replacing it with some stock photos and stuff, but sadly even though i tried to fix the atmosphere later on in terragen, it screws up the lighting on the landscape to where i can't even see it :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use some brushing and layer modes to lighten it up, desaturate it and still keep a hellish feel. Right now it looks like blood-shot hangover. ~witty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 you stole my idea... crap now to think of a new one =D that was my first render... nadril see if its worthy? I'm not going to realy give C&C (well, maybe more later) but what is up with the sky :lol: and how did i steal your idea.... :? anyways, the surface map is realy... plain, and it looks like it cuts off into no where near the end. And the sky looks like confetti :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auicroa Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 yea i know i just wanted to fool around with the sky to make it look wired. nvm about you stole my idea thing... and how do you make the 3d clouds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiphus Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 The text on the left is way too distracting... I think it needs to be brightened up alot... You're always talking about surface maps and the like, but you don't have your scene bright enough so we can see it. Your light source is strange, it seems to be coming from one place, but when I look, it isn't there. Serious lack of composition.... You are professing your skill in terragen; I suggest complimenting it with a good knowledge of composition. Keep up the hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 Thanks keiph :D And i do agree this light source is weird. I do belive its from behind somewhere ( i realy don't know.. i tried messing with it some and it went almost pitch black :? ) But i do agree on working with the overall look of the whole thing. I do plan on working on some more terrains, trying to perhaps replecate or at least get near to real world things. I already did that with my "grand canyon" peice a while ago, thought it would be fun to do again :D So basicly, i'm going to be working on scenes that make more sense. This realy was just kind of a piece to keep me busy (boordom piece lol) and i hopefully will get some insipration and put it to use in a new scene :D Thanks again :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
