elevator attempts




Trying to capture the changing landscape at different coordinates.
Would like the elevator to reveal only segments of the landscape.

Further terrain developments

Developing my basin valley with different textures, paints, times of day etc. Thinking of expressing an apocolyptic theme to stress the idea within my article mash-up : That the world would be in crisis (no pun intended) without women.

Above: Adding more clouds, experimenting with heights and densities.

Terrain - Trial 2, with test sketchup construction

I want to develop the landform so that it resembles Lake Eyre, a dry landscape that can vary from an empty basin to an enormous lake. These images are of my first attempts.

First attempts at Crysis for EXP3




I've been having a play with crysis to see how I can gerenate an environment similar to the image in my last post of Rainbow Valley. My first attempts are pretty dodgy, but hopefully I'll improve over time. I've tested some different surface textures, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, I'm trying to figure it out at the moment.

Mashup

During life, as the woman says, the crisis issue is overwhelmingly spread by most people. It is the activist, peacemaker and beloved women's rights advocates in the world that pose a threat to dominant people, as everywhere today the mose famous women are ensuring the stability of everyone else.
