Func_Msgboard: Inspiration & Reference

Posted by metlslime on 2003/02/17 08:18:34

I just wanted to know if people had any links to good websites for either level design inspiration (photos, paintings, concept art, etc.) or just for architectural reference. We had a thread like this on the old qmap, but we know how much good that does us.

Who decided this imaginary island had sand on!?

It was probably a guy called 'Sandy' who first reported it's existence.

Interesting to see that Oz magazine cover. I bought the Oz magazines from issue one. Their covers were always 'of their time'. I sold the whole collection for a lot of money earlier this year.
