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.

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...

Post some pictures of the salt flats and stuff, probably tommorow.

It looks like ice but it's not, reflections being the only thing outside of the Q1 scope, for now at least.
