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.

That skull in the worms is just too beautiful.

whats that little bastard got to cheer about, he looks the the bastard child of a hula dancer and a orange elephant! :)

In April 1998, an aggressive creature named Tyson smashed through the quarter-inch-thick glass wall of his cell. He was soon subdued by nervous attendants and moved to a more secure facility in Great Yarmouth.

So that little bastard has one of the fastest punches in nature. Plus it can see and differentiate circularly polarized light, even clockwise and anticlockwise. You can't do either of those. Among many other things.
