    I need some ideas for a large structure in my sketchup project. Just post your ideas if you have any. There is a picture of the project so far. The large structure will most likely be along the border of the map (mountains) although it may possibly be within the map too. It depends on the idea. It can be something from ruins to a large structure most anything is fine, I had one idea of putting part of a broken halo ring in the map. You never know. Thanks.

    Here is a picture (this shows the locations of various things)

    I am still adding hills and other geography. What you see described is only the major areas.

    Broken or Sunken Boats - mxdd13
    Ruins - mxdd13
    Arch Ways - xxAl Capwnagexx
    Sniper Towers - mxdd13
    Shield Doors - mxdd13
    Exploding Rock - mxdd13
    Mountain Base - XKG x Oblivion
    Mountain Tunnels - XKG x Oblivion
    Underground Tunnel System - sdrakulich
    Sniper Rock - Xx BEHEMOTH xX
    Run Down Base - Bloubas

    Ok, ruins...Oh and I will update the picture as the project continues. I will probably create some hills to and I plan on an underground tunnel, not very complex though.

    This is a small project thats part of a much bigger plan. This is the first of many projects I am creating for the next four years hopefully. This is all for my resume for either Architecture or Graphics Design. Yes, it may be four years away for me but the bigger the portfolio the easier it is to recieve a job and quicker.

    OH sht so you are a game designer! SWEET! I want to be either that, graphic artist, or a comp programer. You could also put in either abandoned boats or sunken ones on the river.

    well, I think forerunner structures are a bit overused. Put some wrecked water boats like mxdd said. Maybe have places where there is an arch way over the water, but broken so you can't jump over (or maybe you can on some of them-idk)

    Anyway you could make the second base near the lake in the back and put a new water vehicle for halo there.

    Yea, my idea was to have sort of a cave area for the second base. I like the new vehicle idea too.

    damn I have a lot of ideas, I like the cave thing.

    Make the cave in a under water cave where they take a sub or tele up to the top of the base.... lol

    I would do that but the sides need to be somewhat symmetrical at the same time. So having an underwater cave and an above ground base doesn't quite go as symmetrical.
