Which style is it? Is it greek?Had a rough week, and decided to take a little mental break.

I guess it could fit that style of architecture. My main goal was to practice using arches more while still keeping a mostly neutral palette. Not too much thought was put into the actual design though.
Done some more work on my payload map
looks cool, but very flat. some more height variation would do wonders.

I really love the shadows cast by the overhang. Might try to incorporate this style into a map with actual gameplay use, but there's some other projects I should work on first.

IIRC, the ancient Greeks were known for columns, and it was the Romans who added arches.
As I said, I really didn't select a style to work with, I just kinda went with whatever came up. I do know of at least one Greek arch, the Arch of Hadrian, but that was based off of Roman triumphal arches. I believe that the Greeks originally introduced the arch to southern Italy, but moreso used it for underground construction (for distributing lateral forces; Idolon described this distribution here for beams, and similar concepts apply to archways).
(EDIT: Sorry if that sounded condescending, I didn't mean for it to.)

Looking through this thread I noticed I was not the only one to try this out. It's just rare.
200% subtle
tactical surface rover,
front
front2
door side, this is where you jump in and out, need to disable shadows on the wheels
cargo side, need to disable shadows on the wheels
driver seat + navigator seat
back seat, this is where the meat sits, this part is traversable for players, will lessen the ao

Brushwork with that much detail will probably break something so it should be model.
He's been testing with source 2 workflow of making models and he is very successful.
I am still waiting for a good tutorial on this.
mesh, made in maya, ~30-35k polys split into 5 parts + crates, those crates probably need some ao too blend in better
How beefy is your computer? I know my computer wont handle that much poly ingame.
An average weapon tends to have a threshold of ~7k polys when contributors make them, and you see lots of those all the time. Plus decent LODs can work wonders.
well, i made a quick sketch of the entire remake of pumpstation... its gonna be so different, nothing will be the same... its pretty much only gonna be the same in theme...
it should hopefully fix the scaling, lighting, and overall gameplay issues of the previous version...
