@Yoshidude: That's a very pretty screen! :O I appreciate the effort that went into making the center road and gravestone perfectly centered too. I'd suggest that you add a couple more bushes to indicate how overgrown it is. Also, the name Lumbridge doesn't really sound too fitting for a graveyard. Why not leave Lumbridge for the forest's name and actually give the graveyard a unique one?
Took both of your suggestions

Looking good, except for the random borders. Also, did you make those big spikes?


Thanks icon_smile.gif By 'random borders' do you mean the way they are placed seems random, or are you talking about the fact that the dungeon uses several different borders? And yes, the spikes can be found in PTUX. I used them cause I have never seen anyone else use them before. Just know that they may require a bit of tweaking to set up properly.

This is a nicely done GB screen. I really like the colors you have chosen here. It really sets the mood.

Highly enjoyable dungeon shots Anthus! Color is perfect for the contents of the dungeon! icon_biggrin.gif


Thank Angeal. It's funny cause at first, I could not decide on a palette, and I randomly happened upon this one, which is "30". I thought it looked good with all the spikes and stuff, so I stuck with it. I used a light brown at first. It didn't look bad, but I felt it looked too much like a lot of other cave dungeons out there.

Yea, the placement of them seems random. icon_smile.gif
But the dungeon is looking very interesting still!

I simply had to put up the starting screen from the first are of the land below "No name yet" Again ignore un edited map and subscreen.

This is GLORIOUS. Much more wonderful than your town screenshots. icon_smile.gif The detail is varied and pleasant.

My one suggestion would be to use a little less green and a little more of a color variance.

I still disagree about the screen being symmetrical. The grass borders, trees and mountains should be changed slightly so it brakes the man-made feel to it.

I think this screen looks absolutely awesome! Quite an admirable screen, if I do say so myself. The only thing that looks odd to me is that the spots on the tops of the trees are orange. Almost makes them look like they're trying to be Orange Trees. icon_lol.gif Great stuff though. Lovin it Jay!

Well, we have some pretty nice shots here! icon_biggrin.gif

@Yoshidude: I really like this cemetary shot! The greys look really nice, and I think "Silent Hollow" is a great name for the are. Good job! icon_wink.gif

@Jay: That's some nice greenery you got there. Your placement on everything seems to be well thought out as well. If you can keep up the good work, then the entire OW could be this impressive!

I have just recently gotten back into ZC after quite a long leave. I started working on a new quest just about a week ago, and figured that I'll post a couple screenies of my new boss I made. His name is Sin, the Master of Destruction. He is the boss in dungeon #2, the Antipode Chamber:

During the end of the battle, he goes into a berserk/panic mode:

Thanks a lot guys! icon_biggrin.gif

I don't think I explained the Wizzrobe, now that I think about it. Well, you could split the battle into 3 different phases. He closes his eye, and consequently cannot be harmed. Then, he will summon some "apprentices" (wizzrobes) to go after you. After the Wizzrobes die, he comes out to attack you himself. After enough damage, he goes back into hiding, summoning more, stronger wizzrobes to attack you. All done with warps and such, so the battle goes across many screens.

Well, how about these (I know Din looks a little weird, but it's the best I can do)?

I love this shot. It reminds me of the Fire Temple from Ocarina of Time, even if just a little. icon_thumbsup.gif
