Real life... association with Thief

eeh, just make a texture and overlay it. Who says it has to actually be that many real barrels?

That's what I was thinking. Problem is the textures are so blasted flat (they don't support bmps, i'm guessing to give them a bit of depth) that it sort of spoils the effect. In my opinion at least.

On the other hand, if you could get a good texture for it, then stack enough real barrels in front of it that you couldn't get up *too* close to it, it'd probably do the trick nicely. Even one layer rack/shelf to keep you from going nose to wall with the texture. . .

Man, that's a weird-looking thing!

I wouldn't exactly call it a Castle though!

I'd love to live in it though, especially since it's surrounded by all those trees!

Wow, that's more like it!

It's alright for some, isn't it?

I really must stop looking at threads like this. They really help to depress when you're living in a poxy rented flat!

Oh, Neuschwanstein: http://www.neuschwanstein.com/! At the first look I was confused because it's mirror-inverted. If somebody is making a FM of it, don't forget to put a crazy king in it that is humming some Wagner

And don't worry Sluggs, nobody lived in that castle after Ludwig II died. Today it's a tourist attraction.

cradle-like:

"Dormitory in children's sanatorium"....

That´s an interesting page about an abondened insane asylum from the 19th century: http://www.lost-least.it/insane-2.htm

Just a link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rothenburg_ob_der_Tauber

The pictures linked in by "Garret" on page 6 are of Nürnberg, before WW2.

Why, oh why did we have this bottom feeder of dictator

The post WW2 architecture we have sucks. Here in munich we have a street called "Sonnenstraße". Before WW2 it was a marvel of architecture, but after WW2 it got a desert of faceless buildings.

Now some pictures I made:

**marshall banana** · 21st Mar 2007 21:02

that first picture has some weird stonework.

**Beleg Cúthalion** · 22nd Mar 2007 04:51

Some in the middle are from Aachen, aren't they?

Except two they're all from Aachen, yes. I wanted to see, if somebody recognizes the location

. The last one is from the citadell in Jülich, where each year a historic wedding is staged. On this occasion I took the pictures of the "nobles".

Dudes, sorry to ressurect this thread but if anyone wants to see a creepy setting they should check out Sheffield General Cemetary around sunset. There's a desecrated church, lots of monumental grave stuff and a kind of bricked-up mausoleum where the zombies live. Seriously, it will inspire you to wet the bed.

Real water arrow (Karlovi Vari in Czech Republic):

I was once on holiday in Greece and both me and my sister agreed that the town was very Thief-like, especially where it was all windy and shadowy. It was great- no pics here unfor though.

Hows this for the cradle though:

Hahaha the hammers are everywhere:

And the Sunken Citadel:

**AbYsMaL_-_WaRT** · 31st May 2007 12:52

Very nice pics

**sparkle_motion** · 1st Jun 2007 05:00

A giant tribute to the broadhead arrow?:

**Palantir** · 1st Jun 2007 06:02

We have a hammerite soccer team!
