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.

how to design a nuclear waste dump so that humans in the year 12000 understand not to dig it up

concept art at the bottom. amusingly, it's basically "evil part of a game world concept design 101: put spikes on it"

fuck... now I want to figure out what book it is I own that has those same images in it but not as photocopies scanned into JPGs

Oh, First Book I Opened

page 25

Weird, the paper also references Lidwell. WHICH CAME FIRST?

#2337 posted by - on 2014/06/14 05:24:11

The book credits the design concepts to Michael Brill, with the illustration by Safdar Abidi. That paper does too... I think these illustrations in the book are just cleaner copies compared to that PDF

Procedural Clouds In U Engine

These are awesome, it's from a WIP racing game called U racer.

I used to love making skyboxes in unreal. And I used to love terragen before it became really difficult to use.
