It's ok. You need to twist things around. Make it darker, maybe greener, or redder.

I really dislike it. I think the metal serves much better than wood.

It doesn't look like wood. It was a good idea, but it wasn't launched correctly.

Like you said, wood doesn't belong in halo. I love the idea, but it stands out so much from the overall theme of the map, that dark reddish-orange glow the map has that makes it look so beautiful, does not blend in with the bright wood. You need to either make it darker or change the color.



I'd say that the darkest colored piece of wood you have in the skin should become the lightest piece, and then go down from there.

On the interior, the black dots (im assuming nails? or knotholes?) dont look good at all and just make it look tacky.

And like tazz said, make the interior floor much different from the walls.

I love the idea, and this map looks absolutely beautiful, dont get the wrong impression. It looks absolutely stunning, and the wooden base idea is stunning as well, but it's not as good in the way that it was presented as it could be. Theres some room for improvement, but only like, this much--> |*|

*=Room for Improvement. lol

for thoes 6 people who voted "no" does this help?

i tried to make the floor have a "worn in" look and toned down alot of the brightness in it. im just having a hard time giving up the wood idea cause it is very unique in my honest opinion and fits the theme of this map :cry:

Wood sticks out to much from the ground giving it a cartoony look.

Edit: inside is OK, but outside just is to unmatched.
