#35. - Skate To Live - Oz

osman

Hey guys, i'll try to finish this,tho i dont think i'll be able to. And because of this, i didnt feel like sketching it out and planning it so i just started doing some work.
Now, i've never been to a skatepark or anything so if I made some stupid mistakes, please tell me .
Ill try to fill my skatepark up whenever I have time, at the end, i'd like it to be kind of a clean skatepark with sponsors etc,indoor.

So here it is: The scale of the wood is wrong,I know, I just think it looks better this way because of the texture size.

Oh, and are we allowed to have a seperate lightmap texture file?

IronHawk

Looks fun.

Height on the ledge looks good.

osman

thanks:),
Here's a little bit more work, 128texture, I think ill keep this style and start looking for cool skateparkparts to include in my park.

Joao Sapiro

ahahah awesome style ! want to see more !

Emil Mujanovic

Great start dude. I'm taking a similar approach by just building a bunch of construction pieces then will place them around to build the park.
Looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks guys!:D
Here is something new, not finished yet ofc. Need to fix some mirroring issues and need to get rid of a weird seam.
EDIT: tricount: 76(larger one is 126) texture: 256x256(with lots of free space which will be used for different parts)
EDIT2:

Japhir

sweet! really clean and cool!

IronHawk

Angled masonite ftw.

osman

First decals test, sticker is temp(no idea what logo's to put on, so if anyone has any cool ones ,show me:) )
Seam is also gone.

Emil Mujanovic

Looking real nice dude!
As for the decals, I'd totally keep the one punch one. Pimp your own shit (also helps with legal clearance if it were used in a commercial game). But sus out a few skate brands by searching some online skate stores for brands and logos.
Keep it up man, so far you're coming up with some winning material.

Joao Sapiro

keep going dude this is turning sweet !!!

Jesse Moody

man this is looking sweet

osman

Glad you like it dudes.
Here is a test i've done. I used the exact same texture file haha, so its one 256*256 texture for everything you see. Tricount is at around 330.
I didnt planned doing it this way, but I might keep it so that I have more texturespace for different other parts. In the end, If I dont run out of texturespace, i'll do this over but not yet.
Also, I started working on the building itself, some pillars and ceiling constructions, will show it soon.

osman

Ok,another update, here's how I want the ceiling to look like.Will change/add/remove some stuff. And need to clean up some edges etc.

got the idea from flick, really awesome for reference images.

Japhir

Oz... you are awesome! i really like your style!
and about the signs to put on your ramps... i think you can put on everything, check this out:

osman

Thanks japhir.
Woo I like the wood on the second pic. Expect something like that soon! . And you're right about logo's, I decided to put everything on it hehe. Also logo's of friends and stuff.

IronHawk

hey Oz. I'd move those extensions on the half pipe to the ends. Reason being its easier to get a longer grind across the middle and it makes more sense for dropping in off the of them to get speed for the side with the longer bit of coping. A person wouldnt normally drop in and then cut back to hit the corner to nail the full length. Those smaller end bits of coping would be sorta wasted in way.

osman

you're right, but i dont have the final positions planned yet:) so easy fix. Was just to showoff the pillar.
thanks for pointing it out.

IronHawk

Looked like they could be moved easy enough.

Reminds me of a ramp my friends and I built. 4 foot ramps with 6 foot extensions.
