Func_Msgboard: Inspiration & Reference

Posted by metlslime on 2003/02/17 08:18:34

I just wanted to know if people had any links to good websites for either level design inspiration (photos, paintings, concept art, etc.) or just for architectural reference. We had a thread like this on the old qmap, but we know how much good that does us.

Necros, that reminds me a lot of certain parts of your maps, perhaps your older ones, or the coagula-style map.

Timbrel Vault

The result defies common sense, because a timbrel vault is very thin compared to a Roman vault, while at the same time it is capable of bearing much higher loads.

The story is kind of cool (another attempt at a net-positive fusion reaction) but the photos are pretty sweet:

Honestly, this might be a decent way to spark up speed mapping again. Or, turtle maps at the very least. Post a picture and let the picture be the theme. That picture conjured up a bunch of stuff in my head when I looked at it...
