Hey guys! I added photos a few months ago of this. So, I know a lot of people wont see this, but.. This is my independent study for a class I'm taking this year. It's a 3D Modeling class and I've been working in the software (Autodesk 3DS Max) for about a year and a half.

I'm aware that the texture on the mountains is low quality, that's going to be updated. I also know not everything is perfect compared to the Summoner's Rift on live. I made all of these models from simple shapes based on images of the structures I got in game. I originally intended to make the whole entire rift, but due to time constraints I can't for the end of this year but I plan on working on it after. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is appreciated :)

While the model itself is pretty solid, the colouring is off however.

Still good work.

EDIT: Not sure if it's a problem with the angles when the pic is taken, or the transparent gates on the walls are simply not there. And the lane opening seems to be a little too big imo.

Not bad, I must say. Keep it up.

I think you should work on your mountains. Your theme is kinda blocky, you could've just made square mountains. I think square mountains would look better. Also coloring the ground would be nice.

I actually like the color contrast. The clean usage of colors and generally good use of shapes (the walls are strong, the designs on the ground also I really like). It feels a bit rigid and blocky, the towers. The lanes dont feel open and traversable, but otherwise I really like it. You have vision and ability which you are able to execute.

I actually dont mind that the base has few colors. Someone pointed out a lack of green. I think this may be less important. IDK.

I love it. It reminds me of something like The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. I'm not gonna critique on the coloring or anything cuz I really don't know anything about that, but I just really like it and it gives me a nostalgic feeling and reminds me of the days when games where a lot more square-like (triangle boobs and feet) The inhibs and the nexus and the turrets look very close to how they do in game. Good job!
