Alternate original seven faction mod

[JarlWolf]

Looks like some sort of observation station, or a station in general: It has some form of antennae, probably for the transmission of some signal, I'd daresay it's a sort of outpost/sentry post.

What do you think are the circled structures in the background and on the far right side of the diplomacy landscape? I am looking at a much clearer version of the hive diplomacy landscape.

Far right side is merely a variation of the front structure (antenna + shafts going below). For the background structure, take a look at the Hive base graphics, size 3 and 4, in the top right corner.

I am using GIMP.

Wow, good work, i find making shapes in GIMP to be a nightmare! 

Only suggestion i would possibly make is to add a bit of shading (light always comes from the right in SMAC/X i think), i believe you would do that with the 'Burn' tool in gimp.

The things I have left to do before I make the perimeter defenses and aquatic versions of each base include: resizing and redoing portions of the gaian bases (this is what I am currently working on) and redetailing the morgan and labyrinth bases.

I just figured out know has been bothering me about the original hive bases compared to the other original faction bases. What has bothered me is how detailed and close up the perspective is on their bases compared to the other faction bases.

Most SMAX bases have the same close feel IMO.

Do you like this new version of the morgan base?

[ariete]

structure is absolutly in harmony with wallpaper/landscape picture

[Dio]

. Morgan Bases sizes 1-4!!!! Do other artists like them as much as I do?

Work this week has been slow due to other RL demands. Tommorrow I should have a lot more time to work on this.

[Dio]

Here is the gaian size 1 base without the attached saucer things. Do you like the general design of the structures?

[Buster's Uncle]

Hard to tell what I'm looking at.

[Dio]

Size 4 without attached saucers or logo applied.

Hard to tell what I'm looking at.

I think it is hard to know exactly what the gaian bases are by looking at them.

Hard to tell what I'm looking at.

If this is the case, then perhaps you might give some suggestions on how I could make what they are more obvious?
