Bridges:


Note the poly structure.

Roman building(s):


Shading and scenery is essential in making a romanesque building

.................yes a study on high-quality something.


Coming soon: Study on cathedrals

This could turn into an interesting thread.

EDIT: shit, the cathedral thing's going to take some time, what with the texture shading, finding new sceneries and shit like that. But it'll all be worth it in the end. :)

I like them but the roman thing... those trees don't fit.

Also, if you make every building in a map like that, you will have WAY too many polygons.
The first bridge will not work in a map. Second is really good.

Focus on the building! Actually, the trees was added there for kicks. In a map, I wouldn't use them.

Also, if you make every building in a map like that, you will have WAY too many polygons.
Right, that's why we have sceneries and textures. There's no limits to the number of polygons, and the map could be a small, well-designed deathmatch.

Also a lot of verticies don't line up. It really makes a difference when trying to work on making modifications to your map if everything lines up so if you move a vert it wont mess up the map.

I really don't like the top bridge, especially if it's at 100%-zoom; it's too bland. I much prefer the ctf_B2b bridges. The house is amazing, tho'.

I can make it better. It's just a study, but if it's the poly structure and the visuals it provides, then let me try again.

What I did instead,(VTT beat me ><) was doing a simple replication of the Flat Zone stage from the great Super Smash Bros. Melee franchise.
