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.

Brutalist Lovecraftian Landscapes

So, I was perusing some brutalist architecture and it somehow struck me as something that could fit quake 1 quite well, maybe applied to the idea of the ruins of the monolithic alien city in At The Mountains of Madness...

Artists interpretations of this city :

and now the relevant barren cold brutalism :

I can well envision being chased by fiends through such a landscape.

The simplicity of the brushwork could be a good base for a quick jam ?

Pic #3 looks awesome! #1 looks like one of these 1970's video effects where one half of the image is mirrored on the other half, except someone really built this.

Those are giving me great ideas for a R'lyeh map I intend to make in the future.

Example #1 feels more Doom than Quake IMHO but #2 would make a great replacement for our botched zombie. And Astaroth is just awesome! I would love to see him as a boss. Wait... Dutch over at QuakeOne is trying to raise a project of monster pack, he needs to see this! BTW, if there's any modeler/animator interested in his project, it happens here: http://quakeone.com/forums/quake-mod-releases/works-progress/12520-quake-monster-pack-wip.html
