Instwood (part of Lordaeron) [WIP]
« on: December 01, 2014, 06:17:11 pm »
So, here I am with new Lordaeron themed showoff. At this time it won't be a huge city or whole Lordaeron zone reconstructed. Just a little village, that would be a great place to show how Lordaeronish people lived.

TODO list:  fix some little bugs and listen your critics and advices to improve my work in further :)

Thank you for watching.

Great job, Shelldon. I like the atmosphere and lighting. Here are some tips. I think you should make the road texturing more detailed. Try to remove some stone texture from the edges of the road in a random way. So, it would look more detailed. Just have a look at any original zone. I also think that it would be nice to change the water colour a bit. To say, add some yellow colour to it too. Just a little bit. So, it will still look like water, but it will suit the surrounding atmosphere better.

One word says all: Impressive.

Just question, it had all deep autumn-retro atmosphere in that video and IG it would be probably very similiar... Do you plan to create winter, summer and spring versions? A few texture swaps in tileset and on models, swap of groundeffects and you are done. It would be not much work, but those results would be just epic. This whole place could really have somethig to do with peasant cycle of year, I just feel like that from it.

Very nice! I do agree that a change to the water color would probably help tie it together.

Thank all for your replies, 1st post updated with new pics.
For Amaroth:
You gave me a nice idea about the future of this zone. I think, if plague won't capture it faster than winter, I'll definitely remake it :)

New water color (I did some practice with it, that one is the most realistic I could get, maybe later I'll change it again)


Night time water color
