Kinda related to my other space related thread i got curious on this whole space theme and did some research. I just stumbled into some modeling of door, floor and wall pieces that obviously need to nowhere
So i thought, hey why not elaborate a bit more on the topic and just TRY to make a simple theme/set out of this. Again, it's just me trying to come up with stuff. Chances to succeed (read: release) are tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny :blushing:
This is just me trying to spend holiday time
My current references include footage of James Bond Moonraker, 2-3 Austin Powers pictures (couldn't find more or better shots) and the NS2 texture set from PhilipK that he released to the public a couple of weeks ago.
Disclaimer: If you should stumble upon cool space related stuff feel free to dump it in this thread as kind of a reference archive for anyone interested. I really really need your help on this guys and girls !
1) What props could be needed to make a little but kinda convincing spaceship/moonbase map ?
2) What search terms could be used to get some nice reference images of spaceship themed photos that kinda fit in the era of tf2 ?
3) On what franchises, movies, maps of other games e.g. could i fall back to and find some good pictures ?
Here's 3 space maps that i could hunt down, each trying to come up with a convincing space themed map.
