Pit of Fools

Well, I just wanted to show you these 3 shots of a scene I'd like to call... Pit of Fools. This won me a small contest at the Mapper's Guild (www.tmg.gaming.com) and I'm posting it here to see what you think... :p

"The Pit of Fools"
An unsuspecting caravan of merchants decided to set up a small village right below a Defias Camp.

"I wonder what that big fortress is up there..." - Local Merchant

"Those rocks seem to be getting closer and closer to our village! I wonder why..?" - Gohar, Resident

Now thats good!

The use of doodads on the cliffs and the fog/sky makes such a great overall scene.

Rep point given

Wow, just...wow!
The fog really gives the realism and it seems all doodads are randomly placed though :D . Keep up the good work! Rep point given! ^_^

It's very... untidy. The doodads seem randomly placed there are some floating rocks. Great use of varying elevations though.

Just wanted to tell you, wrong link ;).
www.themappersguild.net, or just click my sig.

Very very nice, but I think I said this already over there.

nice

i like that top camp there :D

hmm, looks pretty decent :D
I don't extremely like it, but thats just because of the tileset. It's kinda the same as me hating rap but loving eminem. he's the best in it, though i hate it. i think you did best in this, though i hate the genre. for short: good job.

Thanks guys.

You don't like the tileset Moz? Its a mixed tileset with Sunken Ruins as its base. I replace most of the textures with Ashenvales' grass and dirt. I'll show more detailed shots later on the Goldmine area.

love the pics
those tree down there at the village those looks different are they??
because if they are could i get them?? ^_^

Shadowkiller - check out this screen (Hopefully you can make out the words). I recently learned that it is quite possible to replace textures of existing destructibles like the trees I used (Ashenvale) and replace them with say... Lordaeron's. Funny how I only found out its use now.

Try experimenting with Sunken Ruins trees and other destructables! Its really cool.

aha thats why :D
gonna try do it whit every tree ^_^

Here are some new screens as promised. These show the exquisite detail of the Goldmine area I made... and this is without custom doodads... :\

The last screenie shows the Bandits planning the fate of the little village below. Pitiful... I mean... Pit of fools!

awsome gold mine u made
i want more pics ^_^

What i meant with not liking the tileset is just... it's too plain for me. no matter what special stuff you do with it, it doesn't get really special. i don't know what that is. It's nice in it's kind though.

Well, I used whatever was best... Maybe you don't really like the texture of the shot. Too orangey..? What is special terrain anyway..?
