BSC2021 Clach Umha - 'The Terrible Tar Pits of Tarsha-Ghuul!'

[WuZhuiQiu]

Very interesting and informative! The bits about tarry tendril monsters was suggestive of one of the acts in Diablo 2, although that featured flaming tendrils...

This is very realistic looking and cleverly made terrain so far Clach Umha, and I love the sweeping fluidity of your tar demon. I am very keen to see the final version!

I like the way that the WIP threads for this competition often give you an interesting insight into the creator's though process; not just the techniques they use but their influences and their whole approach to the hobby.

I really like the direction you’re going with the tar pits. It certainly fits the theme of the competition very well! I’m interested to see the final product.

No, I was not insinuating plagiarism. Scenes from Diablo 2 (an old PC fantasy game) came to mind. That is all.

Fantastic watching this come together, lots of unique materials and the bubbling tar effect is amazing!

[marianas_gamer]

Really evocative! Just the kind of new and different pieces that I hope to see in this contest.

Wow...the amount of work, thought, and testing you are putting into this is amazing!

I hope to see you return to this project some day soon- everything in this thread has been wonderful to see.

With some searching about, I remembered that it was the "River of Flame" from "diablo 2 act 4," for example as described here (this site would seem to include a lot of images and some video content, etc., so may be slow to load):

There are also these:

Regardless, do you build models for museums? Your observations and attention to detail are impressive.
