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.

Architecture Of Doom

#2299 posted by Not yet registered on 2014/05/16 14:54:02

Doom in the title does not refer to the game. This a blog with the aim "to post [...] architecture that is often seen as bleak/gloomy/forbidding/desolate/unfortunate".

It seems like every US university has its own "Quake2 Skybox Building" on campus somewhere: http://architectureofdoom.tumblr.com/image/85837429148
The Humanities building at UW-Madison and the main library at Northwestern are similarly planar draconian blocks.

Glad you liked them.

About your question: If you are asking where they are placed, well, you can see it if you look at the url. If you are talking about how i got to find these, i have been lurking at those forums for some years, in the case of the Sonic forums i visit them from time to time and sometimes to remind myself of what its going to be shown on SAGExpo each year and in the Sonic Hacking Contests.
