[Wip][Showoff] Last stand Valley

[sirfranc]

I have started some work after the first release of 3.x noggit, actually i'm not working much on this project, mainly because of the university, but I will for sure finish that, i dunno if i will release it actually, since is a project for my server, if some project will include this work I will consider the offer

this is just the main shape of the landscape, (no terrain detailed texture and no m2s, only few .wmo)

the concept behind this valley is the battle between two newborn orders (The Scarlet storm for the Horde and the Dawn of Thunders for the Alliance) both sworn on conquering Blackrock Mountain (that i will revamp with a brand new istance for this purpose).

This is a valley located east of Burning steppes, and will be accessible both from Render's Valley (alliance) and The Dust Bowl (horde)
the entire valley will cover all the space between Burning Steppes and the coast, and will be featured with a southern - Hinterland style region and a northren Arathi Highland style region, the southern one will include a farmland and the Keep of Dawn, the northen one will include a quarry and the Keep of Scarlet Storms, in the north-eastern region will be a burnend landscape with a Dark Iron fortress and the middle will be the huge battlefield, i'm actually desining the coastal part of that region.
(The project obivously will be feature with a questline, around 100 custom npcs and 5 tier for each faction, on my server)

here some pics




I need a lot of feedback and CONSTRUCTIVE comments (don't start "this is sh.. idiot etc etc, i will just ignore)

Looks good it might be a early picture but add some nice trees and so but i like it

[Ground Zero]

Looks really good so far, why not add some more wmos such as trees/bushes maybe some fencing and lamposts on the paths, still looks good! +Rep

[sirfranc]

Thanks actually i haven't placed ANY tree so far, i'm going to use the set of trees and rocks from the Hinterland (pines and similar trees) and maybe some tree from Hillsbrad
any suggestion for the ground texture will be very appreciated

This WiP looks brilliant! Looks like you put in quite a bit of enthusiasm into this so here's some +Rep for your hard work I hope to see more updates of this in the near future

Like the others have said, needs more trees!

There are no M2s at all actually, i will add the trees later (they may interfere with a good overview of the terrain ^^ only after the texture is complete I will add the trees)
tank you for the feedback ^^

your texturing looks legit, but I would focus more on the road. Try using alpha painting with it, and try to get it to look like it has some wear and tear. That will get rid of it looking so plain.

Everything else looks bitchin. Way to be.

You could always drop out some of that green grass.

you mean, on the road? or for the general terrain? actually i'm not sure of wich texture i can use (for many chunks i have still 3 layers!) i was thinking about the higlight texture in arathi highlands

I'm thinking about redoing the entire area with an uniform style (arathi highland one) what do you think?

[LIMEEE]

You dont need to redo the entire area just open taliis and change blp's =)
