Solaris Temple
uploaded to EU
size is 148x150
nat to nat of 49.9 seconds
main to main of 61.9 seconds
12 bases total

tileset is pheaton with protoss starship
colour scheme is mostly yellow varying from white to brown tints with grey in the form of rocks and a bit of orange lighting tints

about the map: this map is quite decieving in its style, while up to 4 bases are quite easy to obtain the map gives quite an advantage to those willing to venture out and abuse the various flanking options, and the basecount is not incredibly high either.

overal pretty standard with some slightly unorthodox adjustments.

personaly find the map a bit empty on art.

I expected a white, golden and red tileset. I am disappointed.

hehe, the aesthetic theme was supposed to be a sun temple, and I liked "solaris" as a name from PoE, with solar being sun and all, I considered leaving out the temple part of the name but it just fit to well.

The top picture in the artwork section really reminds me of the temple of Ankh Qiraj area from World of Warcraft. Pretty

The transition between the the Daellan ark and the sands is art, pure skill. Care to elaborate if you are using a pen tablet or a regular mouse when doing your blending. Also what are your settings on the style of brush.

as you can see it's quite sensitive at ~10, but that's neccesary with the brush type I'm using and the way I paint textures
what I do during texturing is just holding the mouse down and sweeping it back and forth swiftly to create a bit of a flow in texture density, so that it transitions well along the edges.
