Been awhile since I've posted anything, Im smashing out as much as I possibly can do each day with brush work and texturing. Though I'd like to prevent showing any sneak peaks till the end.

At this point in time I would like to extend an Invite out to any potential Environment Artists looking to increase their portfolio and obviously have a hand in the competition. The sheer quantity of custom assets that I require most definitely out-way my current speed and skill set when it comes to 3d modelling etc. Happy to go 50/50 in anything, just want to get the project completed at this point and have a final piece to show on a Portfolio.

Really amazing work and very thematically appealing

Congratulations on the release, Ill take a run around later

Took a quick break from the props and textures to go back to the map and flesh it out a bit more. Would like to thank those from mapcore and some close friends who gave me feedback.

Alpha 3 is now ready for test, layout and difference below.

Little Update: Started to learn 3D software and slowly progressing, big thank you to everyone I pester with questions.[Blocked Image: http://i.imgur.com/XOWWUol.png]

This Torii gate was my first model without following a guide. A lot to learn but pretty excited to see I'm capable of these things.

New playtest hopefully for the 13th to test the smaller map and rework of sites.

- Learn 3D Software/Texturing to an Intermediate Level

- Complete a project to the best of my ability

- Begin forming a portfolio

It would be drastically different in every aspect. In other words, I would take it back from 0 and rebuild it in another, more updated way.

I don't believe so as it's already had an art-pass.

If you were to do a new layout then it isnt the same map, you are just copying the theme. Which in of itself is your choice. I would encourage you to try a new theme to challenge yourself.

Workshop and Thread updated. Alpha 2 released after input from Mapcore play-test. Screens been removed for a layout photo, refer to change-log for any technical changes.

Love the look so far, personally preferred the day time version as there was more visibility on details etc. Some of the hulls textures on the ship would have a bit of gloss to them as well (i think). Keep up the great work!

Map changes/updates are now live. New screenshots and change-log added to main post.

"true power" hmm wonder what aspect of their console they might be insecure about

Some early 'gameplay' footage

By the time the maps completed, it wont be able to run on the source engine anymore it looks really good

Main post updated with layout, workshop and references. Looking for feedback so I can destroy the whole thing and start again ;P

Some amazing work, Thank you!

After recently travelling to Japan I wanted to try to capture a location that I enjoyed whilst also diversifying the current environments within Counter Strike. The level will take its theme and insipiration from 'Fushimi Inari Shrine' in Kyoto.

Shrine is a 5v5 Competitive Bomb Defusal Map with its theme and inspiration taken from 'Fushimi Inari Shrine' in Kyoto. This is the initial release for timings and layout. I would appreciate any constructive feedback.

Please post any feedback below or message me on discord.

Will try to get a play-test soon. Workshop here

Keep is totally not dead....

Thanks, Guni

Exciting news!, Goodluck to all entrants.

Im really stoked about this, having played SC1 all through my younger years and playing sc2 on an off at a mid-high level. I love the fact that they're not trying to redo it, its just a perfect 1:1 with all its crazy gameplay and mechanics

.

I've just recently moved countries again, so I haven't and will not have the time to get this done by the finish date in four days. I will continue to work on this in my own time and eventually get a natural release when I'm happy with it. As for the competition, I am officially cancelling my entry.

Thank you and good luck to all.

A big thank you to all those that gave feedback in the playtest last night!
