[UDK] Jungle

iangoold3d

Hey Polycount,

So I started this scene a couple days ago, After playing Farcry 3 I decided i wanted to make a Jungle scene to add to my Portfolio. i got so carried away with making modular foliage that i forgot to take a step back and develop a story to the scene. I was thinking maybe a military check point, or maybe some sort of village with tin shacks. tell me what you think!

Any suggestion or feedback is welcome! :thumbup:

here i am as of right now....

I think the foliage needs to be a lot denser on either side. Make it feel really overgrown!





In terms of what you have at the moment, I would say that you need to work on the terrain texture a bit more. Get something a bit more like a path going along it, on top of that tiling texture you have. Also, I'd darken the terrain under the foliage and make it look more grass-like.

Also, it looks a little de-saturated? Don't be afraid of colour!

Looks a good start, vegetations no complain except for that one tree.. Doesn't look right ... Also , are you trying for the tropical scene ?

[FYI, I'm also doing a map as I too got inspired by this Frycry 3 game... http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=118591 ]

I like the idea of a village or military check point. Add some more variations of trees and tire tracks on the dirt road.

Thanks guys ill be working on it alot since i graduated and dont have a job yet

as for the saturation, i was a little scared because its very easy to over saturate things, but i will bump it up and make it more colorful,

@cmtanko yes i am going for tropical

I like where it's going, you should create a thick foliage wall of leaves and junk, and have that as a backdrop for the flora to make it appear thicker. That's my opinion anyway.

It's looking even better. Perhaps have some bits of grass on the road as well. Since I don't think the jungle would hold back and keep the road looking pretty. Just a tiny bit of grass here and there will make it look less like a tropical park.
