[WIP] Fable-ish fountain square - Halp!

Hellow!

Some of you may remember the Tavern from my old thread. I decided to create a full blown environment for it. Kinda ambitious, I know :P

My aims at the end of the project is to get comfortable with using UDK including kick-ass normal baking workflow and leet texturing skills, AND have an awesome environment for my portfolio ^^

I'm not sure if the style will fit perfectly with the already pimped fable-architecture which is hyper-realistic medieval me thinks. But I tried to put down an image of how I saw the scene working together with the tavern itself.

Scene_1: Square

Season: Autumn

Weather: Windy

Time of the Day: Evening

Elements in the Environment:
    Sidewalks
    Fountain
    Ferns
    Tree/s
    Sparse Grass
    Stream/Small River/let
    Rawcks
    Wooden fence
    Hedges
    Mansion Walls/Gates
    Lighthouse
    Observatory
    Ship/Boats

Inspiration/Reference:
  • Fable

Not very good at paint-over-ing as you can see. Trying to give a rough idea, haha.

I got stuck with as what to add in to the concept *sadface*
I would love some suggestions on what to add/change etc, which I'm quite sure I will get :D

    Ohhh I like the architecture so far man :) I think being inspired by Bram's work is a big plus, nailing down those colour choices / lighting is gonna be sooo key, but I can't wait to see where you take this.

    Sadly nothing much to comment on, I say maybe play around some more with foliage, have some overgrowth climbing up the walls, maybe add a dock (don't know if that would be taking away from the focal point)... maybe some street lamps, stuff like that just to flush it out some more.

    I'm also loving how more recently people are using Adam's thread as a template, hopefully this continues (i gotta do that more hardcore next environment piece I work on).

    Anywho, can't wait to see moar dood!

    BRAH BRAH!

    Yes, getting organized and pre-planning is soo swell! Totally helpful in the long run!

    I think dock and street lights are in! I was unsure about the dock for I thought it would clutter up the scene a bit too much, but on a second thought, I think I will make it a very small one so it doesnt distract too much.

    Dock/Streetlights/More Foliage - next update - Check!

    Cheers!
