[UT3] Oil Field Scene

You have done really well on the atmosphere and the theme is held together by a good degree of consistency. The purple and blue lights stand out of the colorscheme in a bad way imo. Either you could go for red lights which would make them more monochrome with the rest of the scene, or you could add more blue/purple into the color composition to balance it up a bit. As for model placement, I think you have gone alittle too much with comfortable 90 degree angle placements with the pipes, walls and fences and powerlines. Throwing some large defining diagonals in there would really break this pattern up in a good way I think. The landscape inside of the compound has the same problem, it's strictly flat which makes it uninteresting, there isn't alot of z-axis in the scene until you get to the background with the hills which look brilliant. The indoor area feels very empty compared to the outdoor scene and aside from the blue windows there is no hint that it's the same level. Did you make the sky aswell? It works really well with the fog and smoke, as I said before, well done on the atmosphere.

what Nurb hasn´t mentioned is that the walls indoor are too repetitive, but the rest looks fine!

Looks really cool dude you did some nice custom content there on your first scene, i really like the look of those electric barriers , but maybe it's a bit too repetitive ? That makes the scene looks sometimes quite bland, especially those pipes. i think you should take some time to make it a bit less repetitive and more "unique".

Also just an idea : you should find a way to make the grass cast shadows, even a shadow blob will do it, just to make them stand on the ground. And yeah i would also reduce the power of the normal map on the ground, the tracks in the mud are really cool but the dirt around it looks really "bumpy", "plastic" well you know what i mean.

But overall it's really cool, i think it's just a matter of making things more natural

Do you have any scale reference of a human in these scenes? It seems like some of the scale is a bit off but it's hard to tell for sure without knowing how big a person is.

btw, welcome to Mapcore!

looks good but really reminds me once more that unreal 3 seriously needs AA !!!!!!!!!! D:

you can fake some aa by making the wires for example a transparent texture with fall off and than crossing 2 2d planes but it might cause other sorting issues and shit so i don't REALLY recommend it ...

Nice, I'd like to see a HD video fly through of the level though

Not bad, but I bet it'd look a kazillion times better with a larger specular highlight (lower glossiness value) to make it look more painted metalish and less wet plastic.
