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.

man I totally bum those old airbrushed covers. I'd love to see a game that tried to capture that style. Especially the alien landscapes.

the skill involved is impressive, but the theme not so much. :P
still, i'm in awe at all the detail the guy put in on all that stuff.

"Eldritch Stygian Horror"

#1647 posted by rj on 2011/06/12 01:43:39

i just found out from a work colleague that wollaton hall in nottingham will be used for exterior shots of the wayne manor in 'the dark knight rises'. couldn't find any official news verifying it but it's an awesome looking building and would seem like a great fit:

Looks Nice

Sure it isn't the same building they used in Begins? Looks almost identical :)

i had to check! very similar style, different shape & setting though: http://lucianogalasso.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/bb-house.jpg

Ahh Yes!

The lack of huge motherfucking stairs infront of the house should have given it away :) Silly me

That's Weird

#1651 posted by oh, that person on 2011/06/12 15:31:31

Because the stairs weren't burned down in Begins :D
