[STAGE] Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, SCORPION'S LAIR, indian_boy

Scorpion's Lair [aka Hell]

Planning on recreating this stage. Not 100% sure of what type of redesign I'll be doing to it. Currently thinking of making it a Cybernetics Hell, but we'll see where that ends up going.

Hopefully I can pull together enough time and energy to complete this. Maybe skip a few days of university or something -ahem-

Cheers!

    you could try something like industrial scrap metal processing factory
    with junk robots instead of skeletons

    Yeah, one of my faves too. Especially since it belonged to my favourite character.

    In regards to the concept -
    I was also thinking that I could make it a processing factory. Some sort of place where robots go to 'die' and get turned into raw materials. As such, I'll be mechanizing everything, and adding some machinery here and there.

    I really want to push the depth of the level, and want to add a lot of atmospherics. Also, I want to try and implement this in UDK when completed, along with some of those nifty dx11 features, perhaps.

    This is a very, very rough layout of what the stage will consist of. Just to get something down "on paper". I'll delve into more detail as of tomorrow.

    Cool idea changing this level to a scrap factory. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Scorpion was my favorite MK character as well.

    Scorpion tends to be many peoples' favourite. =D

    I finally had a chance to try and sketch some stuff out. This was all done at work, and it's real quick stuff. Just trying to flesh a few ideas out - I have things in mind, but I'm not the best at drawing them out.

    To the left, just thinking if there's anything special I want to do with the flooring. Thinking of a very industrial, "simple" look. Bolted floor tiles, exposed wiring, and maybe a dead robot hanging over the edge.

    To the right were a few ideas for the pillars in the background. Still not convinced with any particular idea, though I do like the right-middle drawing as a starting point. Otherwise, was thinking about stacking cog-like shapes which 'housed' robots in some way or another.

    Hoping to get some more done tomorrow evening.

    Cheers.

    Your sketches are looking good :D. Really digging the concept, just make sure it comes across clear that it's a scrappery and not just a place made of machine stuff.

    This looks good so far. I'd like to see some colors though to get a better idea of the feel of the scene. I look forward to seeing more.
