o.O I think comparing me to Leonardo da Vinci is a little extreme... I'll take Giovanni Battista Piranesi, though! His Imaginary Prisons series is actually a good source of inspiration for me. :)

I love the mood and attitude you've added to that area. I hate to be cliche, but might I suggest more pipes?

Awesome. Looks great. Like the pipes.

I'm jumping around a little bit. I would get bored with one section, and I would want to switch locales. So, this works. Now I can get work done equally on all three fronts: JK level 1, 3, and 4. I'm currently sprucing up JK3, which JM was working on up till now.

I think the water is way too blue, considering the drab sky, and I still feel that wooden/glass contraption atop the house looks bizarre.

Aside from that, its looking mighty sweeeet!

Well the water can be fixed fairly easily with a little texture editing. The glass structure on top is a greenhouse and looks quite nice inside, but... well. I like it, but if there are enough people that dislike it, I can change it. I have an alternative design in mind that would probably be more fitting to the original, but also more boring and drab than an awesome greenhouse.

I'd probably have to see it ingame, it just looks wierd and wonky in screenshots. Something about it is just... bizarre, and I don't intend this as a slight to its designer. It just looks... frail and not like something feasible IRL. (i know, this is sci-fi, still strikes me as odd)

Instead of changing the color of the water to match the sky, you should have changed the sky to match the water. I had always intended that sky to be temporary, and only picked it because it was the closest to the original, remember? It can't stay, because the sun in it doesn't match the lighting.
2010-04-06, 4:03 PM #137
I suppose. I kind of liked the idea of a slight drizzle starting about halfway through level 4, though. And if the sky were overcast beforehand, it'd make sense.

And Darth Dan didn't realize you were referring to my Nar project, he thought you meant his. Maybe he didn't see mine.

I kind of like the big greenhouse. The smaller one looks good too though.
2010-04-08, 3:27 AM #139
I really like the small one, personally, it seems to fit the building better. Doesn't seem to be jutting right out of it so drastically as the first. Of course, it might be an entire different feel indoors.

Just wanted to add, the original greenhouse was a magnet for the eye. I looked at the house and that was all I saw. A big glass/wooden frame jutting out from a rooftop. I had never payed attention to the excellent detail of the house itself, the windows, the doors, the switches, etc. The new version really made the entire building feel more complete and appreciable.

The new version does look much better. I think all of the different angles on the big version made it look ungainly. If you need the space, you may be able to make the new version a bit taller without it sticking out too much.

My misunderstanding I thought JM reffered to mine, because I was assuming that I only released a small portion of the first level during the last contest. I really didnt think anybody was that anxious to see what Im doing anyway. :suicide:

Anyway excellent excellent work and BadAss recreation of Sulon and its aquaducts.

The vertical beams are off because they have the same grain as the horizontal beam across the top. And the grain should be vertical there.

I realized that after I took the picture. Already fixed.

Very very neat.

And Zell, I kind of hit a road block for the Grave Tuskens, for some reason Photoshop CS3 refuses to install on my laptop. I'm going to try and get my hands on my CS2 disks but they are at my old man's place and I hadn't planned to drive down there for a few weeks.

In other news I did find my JA cds.

I agree that the new greenhouse is far better, and that the structure as a whole now looks far more believable and pretty. However, in this shot I am really distracted by something. I doubt I'm the only one, and I'm not sure if it's been brought up before.. But those canyons/cliffs in the background really look poorly done in comparison to the rest of the stuff happening in that screenshot. They just appear to be way too smooth and cylindrical. Any chance they could get some revamping to match the beautifulness of the rest of the level?
