oh i forgot to add my word, i'm thinking....MAGICAL
so sofar we have:
MAGICAL
ELEGANT
and POLYGONAL
whats next
BTW:i have a good idea for the polygonal part, i think you'll like it...
-
I think the castle should stay polygonal because its always been that way even in ssbm. Having curved towers would just not look right.
To put that in one word:
Polygonal
my problem with that is that the newer castles weren't polygonal, if you look at cover images and concept work, there are many versions of the castle. in super smash bros melee they remade the castle for a stage. the keep the original look with some fancy add ons to it. in this case there was no reason to make a new one, Nintendo made that remake for enjoyment. but if they made a new game with peaces castle it would suite modern technology....
but my word is my word...I'll incorporate polygonal in there someway with out sacrificing a moderated look...
BTW: i like ELEGANT that will do. any others?
-
ok i have an idea how about every one give one word(only one, no descriptions) on what you think the castle should look like, that way i can have a good idea on what everyone wants then draw it up. normally when i do this in school everyone is satisfied with th results.
nuns, i under stand you want the classic look but you gotta understand that-that was then, Nintendo was limited back then there wasn't much they could do with the castle(due to the console). but we are limitless!!! we can make a castle worthy of todays technology. but i'll respect your feelings and make it modernly classic(which is possible).
-
like i said i am not satisfied with it. i noticed it didn't look much like a castle, that why i didn't like it. i know how to make it more castle like and i'll do it after i finish some chores i gotta do...
also do you guys think the angel winds were a good idea? i figured it adds to the peaceful effect. and if you gonna say"i don't know how to make angel wings!!!" i've done wings before and i can make it.

ok here it is, but i'm not satisfied with it. to tell the truth i haven't designed a fantasy building in months. i just need to get used to the water thats all. its a start but not final. first off i don't like the main building being square, the pillars I'm ok with. second i was trying to figure out were the color glass of princes peach should go...it has some work to do but it WILL look better next go around. also i wanted to keep the classic moat around the castle too.
what i had in mind when i did this was "mushroom kingdom"
EDIT: the ring around the tallest pillar is supposed to look like a sun. that tower is also were the castle thrown room should be.
-
Last time I tried a 5 o'clock shadow, it looked like he had mud on his face, though.
Gotta keep trying.
change the decal settings to "diffuse" and that will only darken the color of the skin...
-
About the castle:
Why don't you model windows and flags? It would look a lot better than decals
Here is a picture of what I was saying about the 4 towers that aren't like the actual castle
take this into consider ration. that castle is old, back then low polygons were required in those games. back then they couldn't make castle pillars that were actually round. you have to think of what they had in mind back then.
also i'm scaning the first concept drawing, its decent but i think it could be better you'll see what I'm saying in a few mins...

hey i found this, its a free forum maker. its better than the one on free web and has 30 diffrent styles which are editale!
A forum i made as a test
-
awwww this is all so touching, i bet Rodney's crying right now because he now knows that he means allot to us all....
-
It is strange how there is ONLY hair for his pinch and top of head. We should see shaved beard (very short hair)
maybe a 5 o'clock shadow decal...
EDIT: speaking of the goatee shouldn't there be hair on the bottom of the chin too, rather than just janging from the front?
-
thicker hair,to many bald spots....but make sure you do that with HAIR OFF or your computer will be as slow as a snail stuck to a piece of gum
-
i'll get to work on it, i'll make an angled version first then i'll post it and see what you guys think.
-
i have an idea...in stead of modeling from an old castle reference how about re-invent the castle,you know...show that we can be creative. i can probably come up with something. I'm good at drawing so i could make a front, side, and angled drawing of the castle. normally when people make remakes that add some stuff of there own, or make something suit the present day style. i'm not saying make something complicated, just modern...we don't have to make every thing look exactly like the old stuff. for instance this guys modeling the ninja turtle in a whole new way!

it doesn't take away from the ninja turtle feel, it make you say man thats awesome! you wouldn't really say that if he just modeled from an old ninja turtle image...
