[W.I.P] Project Gondolin!

[Squabert]

Hello thar, MooseBoi and I have been working on this project for a few weeks now, and for the most part, we've kept it to the dark corners of Ess3ntia, not telling any one outside about it, and we think its time to take it out from under the radar. We are only going to put out a few basic pictures. We don't want to give the whole project away just yet =D We would love suggestions and feedback on what we will release on this thread. Basically to sum it up in as few words as possible, were building a city =D As we progress into this project, I will be deleting the old Pictures to keep the thread at a readable size.

-Concept art-

-edit- (added a map of the city, If your interested in the project, I'm sure you can find a picture of "the" city on Google that we based this off of."



-Custom Models-



Sorry for the big black spot, I had to hide something =D

-World Building- (alpha stage)



These are some pictures of the alpha (Lots of work to do still) Of our entrance zone that in essence "Welcomes" the player to our second zone, which will house the city.

-City- (Wooo, We Finally started it!) We only have the outside walls 80% done, and the entrance zone at around 70%, So non of the pictures below are of the final product.
This is the little mini entrance zone to the city.


Time for some full-sized Pictures, So get ready....




And Just so you can get an idea of how big this city will actually be, I have this picture, There are two human scale models set at the default 1024 model scale.



As of now, We have decided to keep some of the work we've done unreleased.

We could really use some help modeling the city, We need a ton of buildings, and we would really appreciate any help we can get from any one that can model 3D buildings with interiors. If you're up to the challenge, Contact me or Mooseboi on MSN,

Thanks alot guys/gurls..We're not sure at this point if we could finish the project with only me and Squabert working on it, so if you're any good at 3d models we'd love you to give us a shout over msn. Thanks again ^^

[Finalwish]

GL with it. City/Zones looks like it would be a fun amount of hours exploring if you ever finished it.

Looks like a nice project. Well perhaps I can make some 3d models or something but really cba to texture since I suck at that ^^ I see that you guys even made 3d models yourselve in 3ds max, I pressume you guys also know how to UVW map then right?

[IceReaper]

i can help when you help with texturing and exporting my naga temple or i make a quake4 map out of it *lol*

[devmode]

Seems like Ess3ntia is working
