Reserving my spot! Wanted to do something along the lines of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon...lots of colourful vegetation and maybe some wildlife...waterfalls etc.
Excited!

In the mean time, I've started a pinterest board of inspiration and reference for the things I'm going for

Been having a bit of a problem since I moved to Malta and don't have my PC, and my laptop is a dickwad of a machine. Wouldn't detect my tablet, then the driverswouldn't run...gahhhh..
Anyway, got it all fixed, watched all the Anarchy videos, and installed the engine. After I did a few sketches in my notebook then did a silhouette, which eventually led to this concept.
This is purely visual, but you can get a sense of the design I am going for.
Here's some uber shitty quality screenies of the modelling progress. Obviously canopy is just for a test and will work on it more today.
I like the composition. I'm currently working on a bridge too. I'm stuck between several approaches to making it modular though
Bridge madness
Haha, I joke, I joke. Really though, this is coming together pretty strongly. I'm excited to see it in engine with some actual lighting on it. What par do you imagine this hole being?
From the camera angle of your latest update the mid and the rock in the back looks very identical - it would be nice to see more variety in the shapes and maybe you can scale down the rock in the back a bit to achieve more depth. And make the bridges look less symmetrical.
I am loving this concept and I am looking forward to see the final blookout. Best of luck to you
THIS IS ALL SO WIP OH MYYY PLEASE DON'T JUDGE ME! Really struggled to find work inbetween 9 hours of work a day and crazy Malta life, but here ya go.
The bridges still aren't complete and the islands need changing bad!
Can't wait to see more!
The artwork is looking great though!
The scene is already in engine here (it's lit in fullbright mode) but you're right about getting started on the design.
Everything is setup, you're right about the whole ball sliding thing, but I decided I'd get the art done first - what can I say, I'm an artist, and an impatient one at that -.
I think one more day spent on the art, and then I'll delve into the design and come back and fix everything that the design wrecks...
sound good?
Hope you dont mind, i did a quick paintover with a couple of scene tweaks -
Personally I think you need to push the midtone of the scene up a bit, it's currently super bright everywhere.
I also tweaked the colour of the soil at the base, seperates it a bit more from the red flowers and reduces the overall red of the scene as its reaalllly red right now
Just opinion on these tho
There's no hole or flag in that one Steve but my plan had been to get the design implement last weekend, but turned out
I had an infected wisdom tooth and have never felt so ill in my whole life.
I'm going for a consultation today but it looks like I'm gonna be on strong antibiotics then in surgery to get them out...honestly don't know if I'll be able to finish this, I slept 14 hours last night and couldn't eat the whole of yesterday..
Hopefully I'll be able to get it finished with the extended deadline now but it doesn't look hopeful
Hope you feel better soon! :
